  1. It's because he's one of 3 or 4 people within the big league club/organization that even know what OBP means and what a walk is.
  2. I won't ever miss Hawkins. That guy was pure crap with us anyways.
  3. Will this board crash IF dusty is fired?
  4. I miss Nomar alot. I loved that guy in a truly platonic, man on man love kinda way. I also miss C-Patt, even though I was critical of him last year, I now realize what boobs this coaching staff is and how it was mostly their fault. So: Nomar Cpatt Soon to be Todd Walker
  5. He's a stand up guy. I hope he gets traded to a team that wins, because he deserves it.
  6. Out of curiosity, which stat(s) was this in regards to? Jones being 0-54 when in an 0-2 count.
  7. I dunno, today was pretty embarassing.....
  8. Mmm. That would require scoring runs against a soft tossing lefty. That's quite a stretch. Well if we get swept by the Stros, I can't imagine Baker being here much longer than that. It would boggle the mind!
  9. Currently with the club who I cheer for for the future: 1) Zambrano 2) Lee 3) Barrett 4) Murton 5) Cedeno 6) Ramirez 7) Marshall 8) Marmol 9) Howry 10) Eyre 11) Dempster (so less than half) Not currently with the club: 1) Hill 2) Prior 3) Wood
  10. Well 1-2 against the Mets with an incredibly embarassing loss today. Let's go STROS!!!! Oswalt Clemens Petitte (vs. Z) So we should only win Z's game...
  11. Walker raped Novoa. :cry: and Marshall. LOL No, just Novoa. His first error only cost one run. Novoa gave up 6 runs but none were earned. However, Marshall gave up 7 runs but only 5 were earned according to Gameday and the argument could be made that if the first ball, Walker booted, was fielded cleanly to begin with, the inning wouldn't have gotten out of hand... Would the next two batters bloops magically get caught? Oh of course, the wind would have magically shifted for Floyd's pop-fly HR, and 0 runs would have been given up. The bottom line is you said Walker's first error only cost one run when it actually cost the team two runs and kept the inning going for his magical second error and resultant 6 unearned runs. Beltran would have been out = 2 outs. The next two would have gotten on, and Floyd would have nailed a 3 run HR instead of a grandslam. That's why I said 1 run on that first bobble. Regardless, this team sucks from top to bottom. Todd Walker is not the reason this team is 21 games under 500. I think of players I'd rather not be playing their position more than TWalk. He had a horrible game today granted, but overall I'm fine with him at 2B.
  12. Was that a "good bye Dusty" chant in the background?

  14. OMG Todd WALKER MADE A DOUBLE PLAY!!!!!!!!!! :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :roll:

  16. :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: x infinity. Whatever, I don't see how you can defend him, he's not a good fielder. Today's game not withstanding, the attacks on his defense are VASTLY overdone. VASTLY. That's just ridiculous. He's one of the worst 2B at turning the double play. I'm tired of the argument about his fielding percentage because that doesn't tell the story. He doesn't get to most balls and, again, he usually doesn't position himself well enough to turn the DP which is crucial for his position. His reputation is well earned (and judging by the Cubs inability to move him in the offseason, other teams feel that his offense does not outweigh his defensive miscues). NEVIN! 1) no it's not ridiculous, it's very accurate and if it is, any stats to support your claim? 3) What GM are you the team of? You know unequivocally that he couldn't be moved because of his defense. Because as phantom GM of my ML team, I heard he didn't get moved because he wasn't a team player and talked too much to the media creating rifts and divisions.

Today's game not withstanding, the attacks on his defense are VASTLY overdone. VASTLY. And sarcastic comments like yours add to that misperception. [sarcasm]OMG I can't believe WALKER GOT AN OUT! :shock: X 50 [/sarcasm]

  19. Chances of Wind-aided HR for the Cubs?
  20. And to think I was scared that we might win enough to get Dusty an extension. Everyone laugh at me!! :lol: :lol: :oops: :oops:
  21. I personally feel bad for Todd, but hopefully for his sake he'll go somewhere with a chance to win since he deserves it, and Neifi will play and we'll suck even more and then dusty will get fired, and the new manager will make neifi the water boy.
  22. Yes but being on national TV, maybe Hendry will be shamed into holding some accountability for the team. I'm actually for the crowd to throw REAL feces on the field.
  23. A really loud and CLEAR "Fire Dusty" chant would be absolutely fabulous. I'd love to see Hendry's obstinate reaction.
  24. :lol: :lol: :lol:
