  1. I sense sarcasm and annoyance.
  2. I feel like Joe Borowski's corpse is back on the mound with this team. I'll take that win, though.
  3. Maddux for Izturis was Jim Hendry's second worst trade for this team. I'm not sure about that. It's not like that trade really affected us that badly. The 06 team sucked either way and the 07 team made the playoffs despite it. Right now it seems like the DeRo trade is worse than that one. Oh boy. My hatred of Cesar Izturis and the fact that the Cubs could have gotten prospects for Maddux are the two reasons why I despise that deal so much. At least the DeRosa trade might net the Cubs some decent relievers down the road.
  4. Intentionally putting the winning run on base would be one of the most moronic things you can do in this situation.
  5. Maddux for Izturis was Jim Hendry's second worst trade for this team.
  6. Soriano fits that bill, but most of the other guys pretty much define the middle ground. Hence handful, not majority or substantial number.
  7. This team has a handful of hitters who vacillate between "really freaking good" and "really freaking bad" without much middle ground.
  8. I think they sent Furcal back to first because the pitch got away due to it hitting Pierre. I'd have to double check the rule on that one, but I don't think a batter can advance in a situation like that.
  9. Pierre stepped out of the batter's box and offered at a pitch low and in, which ended up hitting him. The ump correctly called it a strike. Meanwhile, Pierre was safe on that one.
  10. This is going to be one of those games where we learn about a little-known rule in baseball, isn't it?

  12. Because Castro has a horseshoe crammed up his rear this season and no one had really done much for the Dodgers up to that point.
  13. Here comes the Dodgers' lone (and winning) run.
