  1. I was gonna comment on the game, but I have no comments on the game or this team.
  2. I just heard Bill Holdem has just left Wrigley Field and is walking back after watching 3 innings of this team.
  3. [quote=vance_the_cubs_fan ]Lee is in a mini-slump right now. Mini? I think his avg dropped 20 point in the past 8 games or so. Of course when your average is that high its not that hard
  4. This is just laughable. Oh well when Neifi gets out, the top of the order will be due up next inning with out leadoff guy, Derrek Lee
  5. Should Prior be bunting here with the bottom of the order up (in actuality the top)
  6. The funny thing is, odds are that eventually Corey and Neifi will both get a hit or two on the same day and it will justify Dusty's piss poor managing decisions
  7. I have a lot of friends that are Boston fans, and I pretty much know what to expect based on their reactions that fateful night. They took all the fun out of it :(
  8. Seriously, I'm unaware of any "charge" of Pujols supporters. In STL, Lee being the starter is not an issue, or even anything worth wasting a minute debating.... Sorry to disappoint you, but if Lee wins the starting spot, The Cardinal fans I'm associated with - won't mind at all. Good, now if we can get them off their Rolen kick....
  9. This is not going to end well Edit: Hmm, I guess this could be my 50 words or less prediction too...
  10. So umm...I got offered free tickets to the game durin the first inning, I umm got there just as the Cubs tied it up 5-5. And umm the Brewers outscored us 5-1 when I got there. I can't believe my luck
  11. Oh no! Cardinal's fans are hacking the system!
  12. Derrek Lee would be ashamed of you
  13. Yeah St. Louis in left, Milwaukee in right. How about a Goose Island sign somewhere?
  14. .339 45 HR 128 RBI This is based on the fact that Dusty and lineup cards are like oil and vinegar.
  15. Haha, with the way Dusty makes the lineups lately, isn't it desirable to want his throwaway lineup in there? This means you get Dubois, Hairston, Cedeno and Barrett (considering the rate that Blanco is catching our starters)
  16. That'd be funny if they took a shot at the Brewers seeing as how Miller is pretty much ingraned in everything Milwaukee
  17. Good job! I voted 25X each inning today while watching the game! :D Jeez, if he wins, Derrek owes you a portion of his All-Star bonus!
  18. I just voted for Digli and Aramis 50 times, my fingers are tired!
  19. I've been to 4 games in the past 1.5 seasons where the score was tied in the 9th, and each time I've hoped to see a walkoff win, and they lost everytime :(
  20. If the Reds traded Dunn to the division rival Cubs for 3 prospects pretty much, I think the team would fold due to lack of fan support by the end of the year. I will not believe that the Reds would consider trading Dunn to the Cubs until it actually happens.
  21. Would be cool if we could get him back for Aug 1, but I won't count on it. But imagine: Kotsay Nomar Lee Ramirez Burnitz Walker Barrett Patterson P
  22. What about Latin America? I think if you did North America vs. Asia it wouldn't work either. Too different being from the US and being from the DR. I love the concept of a baseball World Cup, let's hope it works out
  23. He's gotten 12 at bats in the last 9 games. Even a veteran would lose his stroke playing that infrequently. That is not a fair platoon. He's only had 128 AB's on the season and he really only got regular starts over a 3 week stretch, and now he's on the brink of being dumped from the team. If every rookie on every team was discarded this quickly MLB would be overrun with 50 year old players. Somewhere Rickey Henderson's ears perk up
  24. Shouldn't this be in rivals ;)
  25. ^^ I agree, but for some reason I tend to think of all the posters here as white males. I guess its my eurocentric upbringing combined with being in a mostly guy oriented subject matter. Obviously I don't look at anyone differently once I find out that they don't fit my admittadly narrow mold of person, but it does come as a "shocker", not because I think females don't know anything about sports, but because I already labeled a person as someone else in my mind. Hope I didnt run around in circles too much there.
