I really hope this is the beginning of Jason Marquis returning to Earth. I'd be willing to accept the Rockies as a legitimate team, but when Jason Marquis is their second best starter, something is really, really wrong.

Negotiating tactics and such brilliant past decisions as Victor Zambrano for Scott Kazmir.

When Cardinals fans were posting scores and updates in this thread, posters took it to be them rubbing it in Cubs fans' faces how well the Cardinals were doing. When Cubs fans do it, I'm guessing posters don't take it to be them rubbing it in other Cubs fans' faces how well the Cardinals are doing.

They're pretty thin throughout, although they have a few intriguing guys. I'd give some thought to a package built around Revere or Hicks in exchange for Harden.

I have full faith that Marmol will find a way to screw this up.

Well, that was unexpected.

cards are playing the nationals Yeah, the best we can hope for is putting pressure on the Wild Card teams above the Cubs.

Putting the winning run on base is rarely a good idea, regardless of who is coming up next to bat.

Even money says Paul Sullivan.

A few more feet towards center and that would have been in the basket.

I want Bradley back next season, regardless of the junk that's happening now.

That was almost awesome.

Crap.

I seriously fear Hendry trading Harden for someone like Cesar Izturis.

I agree, but if you get a defensive-minded SS to take over for Theriot with Theriot moving to 2B, you'd basically be shifting the offensive black hole from 2B to SS. Heck, depending on who you get, you might even create an even bigger black hole of suck at SS than what we have at 2B now.

Kevin Gregg time!

Agreed. I would love us to make a much bigger commitment to some defense this offseason. Which will require getting rid of Soriano or Bradley and moving Riot to 2nd...as a start at least. Maybe one of those three will happen if lucky Frankly, even if we made the commitment to defense, it would most likely make our already beleaguered offense even worse. This team should be scoring more runs than it has this season, but for various reasons, it simply has not done that. If we could improve both, that'd be great, but I don't see many options out there who would fit that bill.

That's the first time I've heard the word "banana" used as a verb.

Smattering of boos on that one.

That was nearly Bill Mueller-like.

We're still watching this game right? How much more true-blue can we get here? I'm not wearing plants. When you do, do you go with grass skirts?

"I really miss Reed Johnson." Oh dear Lord.

Gotta love the sarcastic cheer and the even more sarcastic bow.
