    If they take Jock off the Cubs' hands, I'd be dancing out on State Street. Thing is...that's not going to happen. :( I'm sure the morons in NY will start up Murton for Cano rumors or something equally stupid, though.

    Thank you, Debbie Downer.

    -A coat rack with a Cubs hat and glove on it would cover more ground than Glenallen Hill. -Grampa Moises had some horrifically awful days. -Todd Walker, despite only playing there for like an inning.
  5. Outshined_One
    Huh? I thought Dopirak PH in a game about a day or two ago?
  6. Outshined_One
    So now that we're over a month into the season, what have you noticed/thought about... -Scott Taylor -Donald Veal -Jonathan Mota -Dylan Johnston -Jesus Valdez -Mark Reed -Ryan Norwood And any other guys I may have missed? :D

    Blind squirrels and nuts come to mind.

    You wish! Robert Stock will be a Cub come 2007!!! :P
  9. Outshined_One
    He's always been a top prospect and a terrific pitcher...it's just that he has trouble staying healthy. Gee, where have I heard that before? :(
  10. Outshined_One
    Aw, I was looking forward to another Scott Taylor outing. :(
  11. Outshined_One
    Yeah, but there was a guy named Boof Bonser in the draft. You've gotta take that kinda thing into account, you know. I feel like it more than makes up for the inadequacy of the first round. Heh heh. Boof Bonser. Gotta give credit to the man who inspired the name of a terrific blog like Waiting for Boof. Granted, they changed the name...but still.

    Isn't this statement contradictory considering he was in Low A at 23, yet is repeating AA? ;) He spent roughly 2/3 of his season last year in Peoria and got bumped up to West Tenn, where he played 45 games.

    Monty unfortunately qualifies as a bust because he flopped at SS and was not worth the money or the high draft pick it cost to get him. Then again, the first round of the 2000 Draft was absolutely putrid. Utley's the only one on that list who's a lock to be an All Star...the rest is up for grabs. Montanez could still end up as a decent corner OF if he ever adds some power to his stroke. He has a reasonable enough K/BB and IsoD to make it to the majors. As for Harvey, well, just hope that he gets a visit from the OBP Fairy at some point. He's not making good contact and drawing little in the way of walks.

    That wouldn't be the worst of ideas. In other sports, it's had mixed results (Steve Spurrier, Larry Brown, Jimmy Johnson, Nick Saban, Dennis Erickson, etc). It probably wouldn't hurt to give it a go to see if it could work.

    The loss of Sheets and Ohka is not helping The Crew out right now! This guy seems to have caught Cub starting pitcheritis. He's got some Kerry Wood in him (nagging injuries popping up at really bad times) and some Mark Prior in him (random injuries caused by things such as ear infections).

    Williams hasn't exactly been stellar in AAA...but who knows?

    I hate Jason Schmidt.
  21. Outshined_One
    So, with horse tranquilizers and steroids that would be...what, 4 HRs tonight?
  22. Outshined_One
    The fans cheered at Niekro K'ing. Haha.
  23. Outshined_One
    Ohman gives up 714. Book it.

    It's getting comfy up here. Who wants to join me?
  25. Outshined_One
    Yes, because we have to expect perfection out of guys just coming up to the majors at all times. Your response makes little sense. I didn't even imply perfection was needed, but please throwing 25+ pitches in the first inning kills any team's hopes for their starter to go deep. Man, some of you are touchy. I understand there's this unwritten rule for some that it's only a 6-12 team member problem, but I blame everyone -- rookies aren't excluded-- in a Cub uniform and anyone associated with the construction of this team. I'm just saying that it's unreasonable to expect rookies and young players to always perform at that level. It happens to a number of pitchers and I think it's unfair to single out certain guys, ya know? Hill had a mediocre performance out there tonight. It was dumb of Dusty to send him out there for the 7th and it cost Hill a quality start, not to mention a couple of runs. Had Eyre been out there to start the inning, there would have been a different and likely better outcome than what we got.
