Steve Phillips of Baseball Tonight....
Transmogrified Tiger replied to Abe Frohman's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
To be fair, they are about a billion percent right on that point. -
It was started Saturday, and we followed with 2 losses... just sayin' The Brewers lost 2 in a row as well.

Matt Stairs Rumor
Transmogrified Tiger replied to HoopsCubs's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
Something that I didn't consider until it dawned on me, even though it should've been obvious. If we upgrade RF, then Floyd replaces Ward's role. I'm sure someone's said that in this thread too and I missed it, so please commence with making me look foolish. -
hahaha, an elite prospect for Dye and his expiring contract, .284 OBP, and .715 OPS? Where do I sign up?

if you only want guys who are consistently dominant, you're going to have a hard time filling out a rotation. nobody in the cubs' rotation comes even close to matching that description. Not the same thing. I never stated that I expected a dominant start every time out, I merely pointed out Hill's rather inconsistent nature. Lilly is far from Dominant but for the most part, you know what you are getting. An actual look at their performances show that this is far from the case. Lilly has 5 outings of 5 runs or more, and so does Hill. Expand it to 4 runs or more and it's only 7 to 6 in Lilly's favor, and they both have 8 outings of 3 runs or more.

I may be off, but I think that's the 8th time we've walked Young(he of the .275 OBP) this series.
-
Angel Hernandez and Larry Young on this crew, brutal
-
How many times is Petit going to get an extra foot off the outside corner just because the catcher's set up there?
-
Really great efficiency for Marshall after a rough first two innings pitch count-wise.
-
Kendall apparently thinks he's chained to the plate on defense.
-
Attention Left handed pitchers: Stop pitching to Ryan Braun. Just stop it.

How exactly do you go about replacing Hill? He's a top 20-40 starter in the game under team control for the forseeable future. Wow, that is a bold statement. I think that that this is wildly untrue but I would be happy to listen to you prove it. I'm a bit late, but since you asked me and I'm not a huge fan of VORP, I'll lay it out for you. As of today, among qualified starters(or at least 80 IP) Hill is: 31st in ERA 13th in WHIP 19th in K/9 34th in K/BB 21st in Average Game Score (whatever that's worth) 13th in Batting Average against 18th in OBP against 27th in OPS against So, there you have it. What's the justification for Hill being outside the Top 40?

Minor League Discussion & Boxes 7-21-2007
Transmogrified Tiger replied to Slugger_16's topic in Cubs Minor League Talk
I may have to consult a calculator, but I believe that brings him up to TWO AA walks, huzzah! Boise leads 5-3 in the first game of their doubleheader(Hempy started). Thomas and Smith are 0/1 with a walk, Wright is 2/2, and Donaldson is 1/2 with a double. I think they should look at promoting Wright pretty soon, with projects like Burke and Rundle both in Boise it's really not fair that they can't play everyday because Wright is occupying a corner OF spot. -
Matt Stairs Rumor

My suggestion wasn't for us to get both Ethier and Vazquez, there's no way we get the 2 best and highest profile players in a 3 way deal like that. Vazquez goes to the Dodgers, Ethier comes here, and Murton + change from us and LA goes to the ChiSox. We don't get an improvement in the rotation, but we fill out RF cheaply for the forseeable future without really dealing much of consequence. -
Where is that list from?
-
Whoa! that avatar is off the hook! it's mezmorizing(sp)! I think the google ads are going to be for OTC Epilepsy medication before long.
-
Bummer.
-
Please tell me you noticed Valverde's throwing a get me over slider, Cliff.
-
lol at Valverde wandering around the infield
-
Only one out, Pagan is having a good day, and there are two awful hitters behind him(Hill, pitcher)
-
Attaboy DeRosa! Split a gap again plz Angel, or putting it in the basket would be prime
-
Arizona drops their 47th bloop single of the game.
-
If that's not good enough to win your contest, then you'll obviously never be pleased with anything.
-
I believe it's "My Little Pony." :lol: Both, but mine was first, so sayeth wikipedia. So there, or something
-
Stephen Drew and his .661 OPS just went deep, wow. Nice tag by Fontenot, Soriano might've gotten him had he not leaped like My Pretty Pony after the batted ball.
