  1. Besides I like this quote too: How did Rich Hill become the top pitching prospect in the minors? Shouldn't players like Felix Hernandez be a bit worried about this? Edit: Not that I mind things like this being thrown around, it can only help. Rich Hill for Albert Pujols plz
  2. That's great. I already posted that in this thread and no one said it was great then. :( nobody likes you rocket, sorry It's true man sorry :(. But if it makes you feel any better I stated that the Reds brought up Austin Kearns to be traded in this very thread and no one replied
  3. Don't worry guys, if Vance doesn't take out the Cards star players, I'm sure Bazooka Z will do so.
  4. Jon Miller has been working ESPN Sunday Night Baseball since 1990 according to ESPN.com, which was when Bonds was still a Pirate. Furthermore, he has only been calling Giants games since 1997, before that he was the Orioles broadcaster.
  5. It's pretty obvious that one of the Reds OF is going to be traded. I think the whole "we're not trading Kearns" front is just a ploy. They are being smart and waiting closer to July 31 when teams start to get anxious. There is a lot of pressure for Jim Hendry to make a move for a starting LF, and this appears to be his target. It was also strange that the Reds management brought up Kearns from AAA all of the sudden, when according to RedsZone, they said a week ago that he wasn't going to come up anytime soon. I think Kearns will most likely be a Cub on August 1, but it remains up for debate how much Hendry will give up for him.
  6. Are you saying that Dusty would cost the Cardinals 12 games out of the first 90 or so? You know, the players do stuff too. I think you guys are overestimating the ineptitude of Dusty. I think he is one of the worst too, but there is no way he is responsible for 27% of the teams losses (12/45)
  7. Are they real Red Sox fans, or are they like half of "Red Sox Nation" and have been fans since about 9 months ago? Well they live in Boston, the center of Red Sox nation where people have been die hard fans for years.
  8. I can wear my hat with pride. At least we aren't the Rockies
  9. The ballpark might fool ya, but we're not in Denver.
  10. Everybody loves the Cubs, everyBODY love the Cubs, on WGN!
  11. Cub Killer Austin Kearns? Might as well balk in another run and get over the agony.
  12. Why are they pitching to him? He's going to burn them
  13. I'm dusty, walk Casey and bring in Dempster
  14. Haha, unless the Reds score 26 runs in the bottom of the 9th i dont see the problem with that?
  15. How spectacular was that catch for those that can't see it? Better then Sosa against Pittsburgh last year?
  16. Ronnie: "novoa doesnt speak good english so neifi is going to go there to talk to him in umm spanish...or latin..or whatever"
  17. taking 5 of 8 from the 5th and 6th place teams in the division is ok right? :(
  18. Hey Maddux, want to get to the HOF a year early?? Just asking
  19. Cedeno and Murton, a thing of beauty
  20. Lee sounds like he's developing Sammy Sosa "must hit a HR" syndrome this series. I think hes flied out to the deep OF 5 times in the past 2 games.
  21. OMG, if I had $5 for everytime Pat Hughes randomly brought up This Old Cub out of nowhere... I understand the cause and its noble, but shoving it down our throats is kinda annoying. Also Ron spent 10 minutes telling some story about a pizza had nothing to do with baseball, and Pat couldn't update the game for ten minutes. Sometimes suprisingly these guys get on my nerves, and I know thats blasphamy to say to some.
  22. I knew this would happen after the second game of the series. The Cubs became obsessed with homers and are trying to drive everything out of the park. Meanwhile the gopher brothers Wood and Maddux would be serving up HRs like hotcakes. You can never win with the Cubs..
  23. Can he legally force himself to have surgury without the team's consent? Isn't that a violation of his contract? He's basically opting not to pitch.
