    It makes for easy pickings for Reed Johnson when he goes out to the bars later?
  2. Outshined_One
    That was quick.

    This is like watching a Michael Wuertz outing.

    Dusty would like to talk to Len about people with dark skin being able to withstand heat and sunlight.
  5. Outshined_One
    Did Len just get bleeped?

    Nothing like discussing prostate exams during a baseball game!

    Reed Johnson playing against a RHP period annoys me.

    Considering Tyler Colvin is supposed to be the next Alex Rios, they might be interested in him. :D AJ Burnett is #2 on my wishlist. I'm worried about his injury history and ability to pitch a full season, but not nearly as much so as Rich Harden (who has only pitched more than 150 IP once in his career). He's got great stuff and would be a buy low opportunity for the Cubs at this point. His contract runs through 2010 ($12m per year in '08, '09, and '10), but Burnett has an opt-out clause after this season (which he is unlikely to exercise). Considering he and Lilly get paid the same amount in '09 and '10, his contract would be fairly palatable. If the Blue Jays are open to trading with the Cubs, I'm hoping Hendry would also kick the tires on Halladay and Ryan, just to see if there'd be any possibility of the Blue Jays parting with either. I really doubt the Blue Jays would be willing to part with either (especially Halladay), but you never know with these things.

    There's something inherently amusing about watching a really fat guy try to run as fast as he can. The jiggling is almost hypnotic.

    The physical hats themselves aren't the problem - they're normal 59FIFTYs, just bend the brim consistently for a week or so and they'll be fine in no time - it's the designs. I mean, look at these: http://www.lids.com/rid/214?team=143 Who would wear some of these? I think we all know who CT?

    Kreier is a fascinating prospect at the moment. He's put up good numbers across the board and has been victimized by some bad defense at Peoria. I've heard he's more of a command and control type of prospect than a guy who can blow away hitters with a 95 mph fastball. However, for a 20 year old in Low A, he merits further watching.
  14. Outshined_One
    Some early returns are in... Iowa indeed played today and won. Marshall pitched today for Iowa and had a decent outing. Pie is still struggling. Kroeger had a good day. Tennessee is early into their game. Kevin Hart got the start. Peoria is also under way. Marquez Smith hit another HR. Kevin Kreier had a good outing in limited action.

    I thought Kemp was being shipped back to Europe due to his visa? Interesting that he's listed on the Mesa roster.

    I don't even think it's a popular belief. Don't confuse this board with the rest of the Cubs-following world. You're right. We're way smarter than everyone else. Is it so wrong to think we are? :good:

    Man, tough luck Vance. Tennessee is still in the midst of a rain delay.
  19. Outshined_One
    Roy Halladay has the Cy Young Kerry Wood has NLROY.
  20. Outshined_One
    Only if the Jays can move to Chicago. Lyle Overbay is dreamy.
  21. Outshined_One
    ERI-K has a nice ring to it!
  22. Outshined_One
    I feel like I had seen that before from someone once on this team named "Patterson". You don't think those guys could be related, do you?
  23. Outshined_One
    Len talking about getting freaky in the hotel at the ballpark.
  24. Outshined_One
    Nice job working around the leadoff double.
