  1. Me and Chuck are still in a good battle, I was saved by two subpar outings by Hernandez and Saunders. I'm down by 11 with one start left from Josh Johnson. When is the right time to make roster adjustments for next week?
  2. As far as Orton, he asked for his release immediately after BCG was let go. Right now, UK is supposedly Orton's 1st choice and the soon to be Bluegrass festival will likely be the stage as whether he confirms his decision one way or the other.
  3. I haven't been following the NFL since the reg. season started but if Reggie Williams is still avail. I'd like to see the Bears go after him.
  4. Chuck is up by 11 going into the weekend and we have 3 starts each left. Coco Crisp!?!
  5. Ethan Martin RHP Dodgers Christian Friedrich LHP Rockies
  6. I think Beekman will become an above avg. OG and the rest will be suffice compared to other holes previously mentioned. Kevin Jones and A. Peterson are well below avg. back-up HBs and aren't good enough to share any kind of workload with Forte. Hopefully with Cutler, the need for better FB is even more diminished and as you said, they've never featured one to begin with.
  7. They're forced to go with the best avail. option at WR left on the board, I looked at various positions, but I'm not sure what this draft is heavy or weak with based on positions but... WR D-Line Secondary Back-up HB LB O-line depth For me, this is my order of importance.
  8. Wonder how antsy you are going to get sitting for 10 hours before the Bears first pick. Ha..yeah...I was gonna say..not having a first round pick has me less than antsy. I can shut it out until the afternoon :) I just want to get past the speculation. I'm ready to know what we're actually going to be working with here (for the most part). I'm looking forward to my... "what I would've done draft".
  9. One of my fav. pitchers that I got to see throw in the MWL. Definitely a tragic story.
  10. Good job by Hillman to pull Greinke, hopefully KC's bullpen can do their job this time and get him the W.
  11. I'm getting lucky this week with my starting pitching and it still might not be enough. I'm hoping Wellemeyer conts. to get his ass handed to him.
  12. 1) That's UD box Row 1, you'll have very good seats with no obstructions, IIRC. 2) Never been to Yesterday's, I'm partial to Mullen's because it doesn't get as crowded as early as the others and I know one of the owners. 3) That's a long trip from Wrigley to the Cell via the red line, I wouldn't think it's worth the trip but I've never went inside there. There are decent shops around Wrigley for memroablilia. 4) I don't think the heckling would be too bad. Unless it's a rival like the Sox or Cards, it won't be bad but don't underestimate the douchebaggery of Cubs fans as there's plenty of them out there.
  13. They left Johnson in there too long yesterday, the W was already wrapped by the 5th and they kepy him out there for 108 despite the 8 run lead.
  14. Some good matchups this week, Me and Chuck are in a dog-fight right now, Fernando is in a battle as is Don and Robert. It sucks having almost 90 points at this point and still losing.
  15. Motte helps the Cubs but kills me. -15 points from a closer!
  16. Still fair to question why Kosuke is batting 2nd. To me, he is the weakest hitter in the current line-up (except when Miles is in there) and they have him at a key spot with better options (Fontenot).
  17. Quite a start, Oswalt leaves a low 90s up in the zone.
  18. We'll see if Z can get over his 1st start woes.
  19. His FB looked terrible in the 1st, no command at all. He was saved by a nasty curve.
  20. It's always rough for some pitchers in that 1st start. Lee, Webb, Cook etc. have looked awful.
  21. If you didn't grab Fontenot the same day I was going to grab him, I wouldn't have had to go with Lopez @ 2B. Lopez for MVP!
  22. Felipe Lopez in his 1st AB. HR Screw you Tim.
  23. I was deciding between Millwood and Braden for my swing starter this week, Millwood has a 4-0 lead and a no-hitter thru 4.
  24. I see.... Oh well, that's my fault for knowing the rules. It only cost me the closer on the worst team in MLB.
  25. Maybe this is a dumb question but... How can he still be on the minor league roster despite being named the starting CF'er?
