    Oh, and for those counting, 1,170 of those strikeouts came with the Cubs.

    And I believe Len or Bob mentioned during his last start that no one has ever reached both milestones against the same opponent --- something Greg has a chance to do tonight. I didn't catch that... how awesome would that be? Incredibly awesome.

    I think it doesn't get the attention for two reasons: 1. Maddux himself downplays the accomplishment. 2. So many of those strikeouts happened while he was a Brave. Personally, I think it's a pretty big deal. There aren't too many pitchers who've struck out 3000 guys and have 300 wins. Greg is a special pitcher -- even today he's better than most.

    Go rookies!

    Strange how that happens.
  6. brinoch
    At least 50 more in him tonight.
  7. brinoch
    Sounds like it.

    Murton needs to learn how to strike out.
  9. brinoch
    Bleh. Nothing good ever happens when they show the pitch from behind the plate. I hate that view.

    Didn't we see the busted bat out in a PH role last night? Yes. Yes, we did. One pitch. Ridiculous.
  11. brinoch
    How about about just a hitter?
  12. brinoch
    That wasn't even close on strike one. It'd be nice if Hill got those kinds of calls.

    Hey all, just a reminder: keep it clean and keep it civil. Last night got out of hand, and it really wasn't acceptible. We will not let it slide tonight. That is all.

    ahahhahaha Maybe he'll decide he has no choice but to offer cincy over so much that they give in and trade him Milton. Milton would be a lot better in RFK than in GABP. I still wouldn't want him, but he's a flyball pitcher, and RFK is capacious in the power alleys.

    Put the wrong guy in for him though... Baby steps.
  16. brinoch
    Dusty double-switched Hollandsworth out of the game? Forfend!
  17. brinoch
    Why run in front of Pujols? That's almost Baker-esque.
  18. brinoch
    or i dont know save the bat and use maddux who could get the bunt down in his sleep. macias has as much business on a big league team as half of us in here. No argument from me.
  19. brinoch
    That was terrible. Prior would have been a better choice to hit there. At least he has a chance.
  20. brinoch
    Well, the good news is that we'll definitely have one -- and quite possibly more -- of our members there who can give us a report on Nomar.
  21. brinoch
    That's an excellent WHIP, and someone you ought to be trying to get on your pitching staff.
  22. brinoch
    Outstanding article. We need to link that article from the FAQ.

    Hendry can fire Baker, just as he hired him. While you are correct that many of the problems faced by the Cubs are caused, in my opinion, by Baker, Hendry shares culpability by providing the players and giving Baker the autonomy to misuse them. For example, if Hendry wants Remlinger used against righties, the kids to get a real chance to play, etc., etc., he needs to either lay down he law -- impose his will from above -- or fire Baker. If he shares Baker's philosophy... well, let's just say he's still guilty!
  24. brinoch
    No, you don't include HBP, and that's a distinct flaw. I've also thought that DP's should probably be included somehow, but then you're getting very complex.
  25. brinoch
    It is, you just have to post it in green. Sarcasm is allowed. And you don't have to post it in green, either. It's nice to give a hint, though, that you are being sarcastic.
