  1. If you're the 3B on that play and see Soto coming, you get out of the way.

  3. Because Soriano wouldn't have made that throw, amirite?!
  4. Take this stat for what you will: Outs recorded on the basepaths 2009 (doesn't count caught stealing or pickoffs): Brewers: 20 Cards: 22 Cubs: 22 Astros: 24 Reds: 33 Pirates: 33 By that stat, the Cubs aren't the worst baserunning team in their division this year, much less the worst in the majors. The Reds are the only team that get on base less than the Cubs on that list. That amuses me.
  5. Strangely decent play by Fox there, although I was worried he'd chuck the ball into RF.
  6. He habitually hit the backstop and the net behind home plate on throws home.
  7. This seems to be a common trend that we've had problems with for many years. Remember how much fun it was to watch Moises Alou on the basepaths? /twitch *Airmails cutoff man, catcher, pitcher backing up catcher, first ten rows of the stands*
  8. Von Joshua teaching life lessons? What, was he explaining to the guys how to deal with the mad they feel? Will he take them on a trip to the Neighborhood of Make-Believe?

  10. Hit & run was on with Bradley. Those were two close pitches on 3-2.
  11. He's a short scrappy hustley type. He fits the leadoff hitter mold.
  12. My memory is that he's not quite as good as Strasburg, but assuming he defected and signed this year, he'd probably be the #2 prospect in baseball at year's end. So, he is not one of the prospects from Cuba who would go straight to the majors Apparently he needs a bit of refinement, but my guess is that he wouldn't stay in the minors very long.

  14. Holy crap! How much would he fetch in the open market?
  15. Pretty much. He went nuts with that stuff when he was actually managing. That and he committed some serious abuse with Schilling and Johnson during the WS season.
