  1. Hmm...Dusty INT walked the bases loaded with a young pitcher who hasnt pitched in 2 weeks and no room for error...ill start tomorrows game thread now
  2. You going Friday? I live in the area and if I wasn't in class until 9pm in the Loop, I'd head down there
  3. Let's pretend we are in a playoff race: Marlins up over the Astros 4-2 in the 7th
  4. Anyone else think Zambrano had a much better shot at getting a hit there?
  5. Thank God the Bears and Cubs will only go head to head for a little while. I remember sitting at Wrigley last year for week 1 and almost regretting going to the game while Glendon Rusch was getting lit up
  6. Did the Cubs play Detroit twice? I know the Tigers were at Wrigley in early June of 2000. I was there to see Aguilera pick up his 300th career save. We played them in Detroit in late June of 98 and I'm 99.9 percent sure that's when Sammy set the "most homers in a month" record. I will confirm that. It was
  7. So you need the Cubs to go 17-5, the astros to go 11-12 and all other teams to beat up on each other just for the Cubs to tie the wild card? Theoretically we are better then most of the teams that we play yet realistically we don't beat them at a regular pace. I am really just cheering for a .500 season. No need to have unnecessary expectations. If they win 9 in a row, I will begin to think about the playoffs.
  8. Wow, I missed the game tonight and it looks like I missed quite a doozy. I really gotta remember to catch these games!!
  9. Only 5 pages for a game thread? Yeesh
  10. Another reason to root against the Astros (if you needed one). The Astros winning the Wild Card would allow St. Louis to play San Diego, currently under .500, in the first round
  11. Agreed. I don;t have the numbers but one of the reasons the bullpen has sucked this year has to be because they have worked a crapload of innings.
  12. You do know you have to get a base to get the 10k right? :) Maybe you can take one for the team
  13. Wow, do they test for steroids there? (Just asking...)
  14. K now do highest percentage of Strikeouts and weak popups per AB
  15. Wow we almost have representitives from every level of the Cubs posting here! Welcome Len, you have made the transition from the familiar Chip and Steve booth smoother then I could ever imagine. However in order to confirm your identity, we must ask you some validation questions: 1) What was the average legnth in millimeters of your hair on July 15, 2002? 2) What was the name of your third grade teacher's dog's mother? 3) What was the 47th word you said on air as a broadcaster for the Cubs (not including Spring Training?) If you know the answers to these questions, we will accept your identity as real.
  16. No no no no no no no no no no no Like a poster above said, we'd pretty much have to go 26-4 or better to have a chance. Not going to happen. Just let the season die peacefully.
  17. Just pure speculation, but here's a quote from http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/4817678 I doubt the Cubs would be players, as the Cubs know how fun it is to hold large contracts with sluggers with controversy, but its worth talking about...
  18. I don't think the Rockies will sign him....they have a young team that is attempting to win next year or the year after. They won't want him
  19. C'mon TWalk, make it a 10 run inning!
  20. I don't even care. Rothschild has coached way too many underperformaning pitching staffs, he has so go.
  21. What's not fair is that the Orioles will probably base the prospect on the way Sosa performed this year, and not on the potential he had before the year.
  22. Cleveland, they are everything the Cubs aren't. Maybe we can lend them Prior and Zambrano for the playoffs.
  23. This is going to be the first time in awhile that I'm not counting down the days until the new season
