yup at the time thats what i thought. but i never expected them to get this hot. To be clear I was making fun of people like you. To be clear I was admitting that when I made a thread about that I didn't expect them to get hot and I was wrong :-$

Then why start Castro? I say bring up Javy for 2B for this series. whatever it is, tomorrow is a preview of our world series lineup!!!!

lol utley for castroli

Sox are hot too now, they are one of the best of the bads teams in the league.. They have been winning 7 straight losing 7 straight all year long. Dont take anything for granted! Ill be at the Cell all 3 games!!!! go CUBS!

hmm but didn't utley say he will invoke his no trade rights? that said i hope we can swap for castro that would be nice.

33.6% for a college guy is pretty much unacceptable. Deewees sporting an OPS just north of .650 in shortseason doesn't exactly thrill me either. Considering there was only about 5 kids taken with any kind of upside, the far too soon review on it is extremely negative. for every schwarber there is lots of brett jacksons, its just how it is.

and bryant k's ...

yeah i cant wait, he gets hot and proves he isn't a lost cause and then we don't see him ever again starting 2016 season So you DO understand how NSBB feels about you. Sure :clapping:

game day has motte throwing a curve a cutter and a fastball what? he has other pitches or gameday is wacky?

its great when cubs are winning. really its great! but I'm fiending for a 4-4 2 hr game from Bryant lol

Wonder why Herrera instead of Castro.. hmm.

i've noticed that his voice is definitely aging, but does he have health concerns that I'm not aware of? pat hughes becoming the radio PBP coincided with the start of my real cubs fandom (in a following every game sense), i feel like he's a major part of my summer childhood. dunno what it is but it seems like he leaves the booth for a half inning quite often, maybe bathroom(as in you know older men sometimes gotta go alot)

Yay!!!!! But one serious question. How the F** does Fowler have twice as many Homers as Soler!?

If they took Castro for utley would people be mad or happy? I mean that payroll relief in the future could be helpful no? Even a broken Castro is worth more than Utley's desiccated corpse. I dunno offing that big contract for a guy who is done after this season is kinda sexy to me.

Except for that one time Rizzo made the catch of the year. yeah wasnt that yesterday?

Well I'm with you, but 4 rookies so who knows. they could start slumping again :(

lol.. that was random they just put up a graphic showing the weekend's matchups ahhh im at work, could lester go on short rest sunday vs. sale with the offday monday? probably not.. Haren vs. Sale.. oh boy

Man i wonder how many homers KB would have if the wind was actually blowing out like old fashioned Wrigley. I'd have to think like 20ish.. Does anyone know if there has been a study of the wind patterns with the new Video boards? I would think even if the wind was blowing out, since the boards are so big when the wind hits them it may create a sort of backdraft..

lol.. that was random

I said this before and got bashed but I will say it again lester gets teh bump. Okay so people don't listen to 670 much but just today Bruce Levine was on there interviewed and was asked about this. He replied "Everything I have heard is if the cubs make the wildcard playoff, Lester will get the start because Arrieta has never pitched more than 157 innings and in the playoffs" .. he also said some really funny comments about how Castro is basically never going to be traded from Chicago because of his 200 hit season in 2011 and the fact is that the guy is way better than his performance.. Bruce Levine is an idiot, but still thats what HE heard. (re: the 1 game playoff) for the record, I want arrieta on the bump for that game! The last time you brought this up you said it was because he makes too much money to not pitch big games. What bruce says makes a little sense. Even if you include the minors hes only pitched at most ~180 innings in a season. He's on pace for like 220+ innings right now. But regardless, whats the difference between him pitching a 1 game playoff and him pitching in the LDS? Ideally, the Cubs can continue to stretch their lead and can allow Jake to get more rest in between starts. I totally agree, once the rosters expand I could see a richard spot start with some guys like edwards eating a couple innings. I did say that but it was only Salary I said Salary and Experience. Look, Im with everyone else I want to see Arrieta pitch that 1 game playoff. Just saying Levine was saying exact same thing about Lester (not salary part but experience part) on the radio today.

Lets be Honest, last time we went against the Pirates Ross saved the cubs ass* on those pickoffs (for the game that didn't count). But they are a pretty speedy team overall. I'm going to be terrified if Lester pitches that game.
