  1. 3 runs in the second, probably should've been zero as he got hosed on strike three before both HR's. Gave up a blast to Soriano the following inning, and I had to leave after that.
  2. I remember this one time Damian Jackson hit a home run for us, it might have led off a game. Now he can go DIAF.
  3. With Pierre's ineptitude against LHP, he should've bunted at Zimmerman.
  4. Wood on pace for about a 6 IP outing. 48 pitches thru 3
  5. You've got to have a better angle than that WGN.
  6. Absolute nonsense. Twice he's K'ed a guy and he hits a HR on strike 4.
  7. I've only noticed one pitch on the gun, and it was 89. Thanks blue.
  8. haha, Pierre was trying to bunt it into left Len?
  9. Let's do it. Except Seth's the only one I know by face, and that's sketchy at that.
  10. So much better? They were virtually the same hitter in 2005 (barely better than crap), and they are again in 2006 (total crap). Mirabelli 2005: .228/.309/.412 Blanco 2005: .242/.287/.391 Mirabelli 2006: 6 for 37 Blanco 2006: 2 for 32 And we had our own Dustin Mohr when Restovich was up. That's a 40+ differential in OPS, it's not trivial like you're making it out to be. And there's also the fact that Mirabelli has the vastly superior career. Perhaps Restovich would be like Mohr, but we never gave him a shot. Look at Mohr's numbers v. LHP, he's the ideal platoon OF.
  11. Atlanta, Arizona, Cincy, Minnesota, Boston, White Sox, Houston, Dodgers, Milwaukee, Philly, STL, Texas and Toronto all have more threats on their benches than the Cubs. The Cubs have no threats, and none of their bench players are doing anything good. Before I posed that question, I took a cursory look at some rosters around the league. Two that I looked at were Boston and StL. I'm sorry, but you're just not going to convince me that they're any better off than the Cubs. Boston Mirabelli - Blanco - wash Snow - Mabry - wash Cora - Neifi - wash Harris - Pagan - wash Mohr - Hairston - wash Seriously? Mirabelli is so much better than Blanco it's not funny. Mohr is exactly what our bench needs, a platoon split power hitter from the right hand side. And even then, an AL bench is constructed differently because of it's frequency of use.
  12. Neifi is 6 for 14 with 2 triples against Ortiz, that's the "justification".
  13. Of the upcoming road interleague games, which stadium does Womack "know best"? He's got a sub 600 OPS at both the Jake and the Metrodome, but I'm sure that pales in comparison to his experience of 30 and 38 at bats, respectively.
  14. What about down the lines? Wasn't it less than 300 feet? Yes. Link Dimensions: 277-L, 455-C, 258-R (original); 279-L, 475-C, 257-R (final) http://www.ballparksofbaseball.com/past/PoloGroundsInside.jpg
  15. We're going to hit another stretch soon where we face a bunch of LH starters. Hopefully we make some adjustment or have some personnel change to be able to hit better than .020 or whatever it is we're hitting against them.
