I used to be able to pick up WGN all the way to the edge of St Louis.

DIRLLIGAF ?? :wink:

Interesting idea. The way I have it is..... CUBS are 2-2 when Aaron Miles starts at second base..... 6-4 when he doesn't. Unfortunately, the way I set up my databases..... team records and appearances in a game (other than being the starter) aren't correlated. But... it is something to think about. eta: of course, there is this........ Pinch hitting AB SO GDP Miles 4 3 1

Look, I'm not trying to defend Dusty Baker in any way, shape, or form. It was a really bad year to be a CUBS fan because it was a really bad CUBS team, not because of the way Dusty used the players he had. Consider these records.......

Well, if Scotty Poddy doesn't pan out..... I hear that Orestes "Minnie" Minoso is available.

I remember the CUBS going 79-83 (.488) in 2005..... but there were those 20 games where Dusty batted Corey Patterson leadoff and Neifi Perez second......
