  1. Was he one of the umpires that was fired after that strike they had a few years back? Wish him the best.
  2. Oh c'mon we're 22-33, in dire need of motivation to watch this team. The guy thinks he's Carlos Beltran, he said it himself. I want to see the self-fulfilled prophecy carried out in person. By the way I'm half kidding. But I think he would improve the bench if he can hit anywhere near what he did in the Spring
  3. Where do you put Carlos Bel- I mean Angel Pagan when he returns ;) Edit: Nevermind he's going all Hollandsworth on us:
  4. Speaks good English??? Are you serious? Most people can't understand a word he says. He does pronounce the vulgarities surprisingly well, however. There's a difference between using good grammar and complete sentense structure and having an overwhelming accent that makes it difficult to understand English
  5. This doesnt feel like a tying HR ab....and its not
  6. He never seems to get on base, but he doesn't K much. Before today he had 20 Ks in 228 ABs. I guess I've been trained to single out his K's because he supposedly never K's. He does have a higher rate then he did during the rest of his career.
  7. There goes our little K machine King again. Wish he would have done that more in the 2003 NLCS
  8. Hairston went 0-4 with a BB today. What's that leave his 0-fer streak at?
  9. Maybe the Cubs offense will stop taking innings off now...
  10. Whats the point? He had 2 hits yesterday.
  11. Dusty is right walks suck. We got 3 of them and they only gave us one run. If we had 3 hits, we'd have likely scored 2 or 3. (I'm kidding...seriously)
  12. Oof, thats when you know your team stinks, when your middle reliever is your lone all star. I don't know about you, but I'm not sure I'd want Barrett behind the plate catching to decide who gets HFA in the World Series
  13. Pujols is one of the classiest guys in baseball. I hate the Cards and I hate Pujols, but its tough to see one of the good guys go down. At least the Cards will know what we went though with Lee
  14. Z would be our All Star easily
  15. Anyone have any updates in Williamson? Looks like he pulled a Chad Fox at the end of the game. If he goes down, the way Aardsma has been pitching, he can fill in nicely in the 6th inning role.
  16. I know what your saying goes beyond injuries, but its not like they've been completely healthy with Edmonds, Rolen, Carpenter and others missing significant time over the past 2 seasons. Not as devistating as the Cubs but still. And as for having players fill in well, i guess they just have a better organization then the Cubs do.
  17. If thats true, half of our team needs to get sent to AAA so they can "come out swinging" and be rewarded for it. Oh wait they already do get rewarded for it.
  18. He's like 5-28 against the Cubs this year (.179). If theres one thing our idiotic coaching staff can do its figure out how to get out Pujols
  19. The Cubs will lose 8-1 tomorrow. I won't be convinced the Cubs can make a run until they consistantly work the count and draw walks. Unfortunately thats not gonna happen.
  20. Looks like it will be the Rusch, Williamson, Ohman, Novoa show tomorrow
  21. Someone is having fun watching this one...
