  1. At this point, why would any lefty pitch to Braun?
  2. Haha, nicely done, US.
  3. Please be patient, Keppinger. Bush is not throwing strikes.
  4. Wow... Dunn really can work an AB. That count was 1-2 with like 100 foul balls before he drew that walk.
  5. Our future RF singles. 1 on 2 out.
  6. Yeah, who wants to have an interesting discussion, anyway. I know, right? Damn nerds always discussing stuff.
  7. I doubt Griffey is happening. Tex is definitely not gonna happen. Dunn and Dye are the best hopes right now. Personally, I think Griffey is significantly more likely than Dunn. He just seems like he's far more of a Hendry type of acquisition than Dunn is. Not saying I wouldn't prefer Dunn long term, I just don't see Hendry valuing his skills properly.
  8. Looks like the Rockies still have tickets available for that game. You're not gonna get em much cheaper than face value.
  9. OK, then why speculate about trade rumors at all? It's all fantasy land talk. Sorry, I didn't know we weren't allowed to discuss potential moves on here. I'll wait until Hendry announces a trade to discuss any potential trades...oh, wait...
  10. Stubhub? Can you get them off the Rockies site or do they still sell out?
  11. Brewer fans are up in arms over at their board, as it looks like Fielder is not in today's lineup.
  12. Clark Judge actually cuts Rex some slack. http://www.sportsline.com/nfl/story/10264987
  13. meh, you still have Hawk dragging down the broadcast, I don't care how good Stone is. I think the potential for amazingness is about the pairing of personalities in Stone with Hawk, and has little to do with how good (or not) Stone is himself.

    90 wins?

    As another aside... After 99 games... The 2007 Cubs are 53-46 The 2003 Cubs were 50-49 The 2004 Cubs were 53-46 (the best Cubs team in recent memory)
  15. Depends on how well you think Gallagher could do in Marshall's spot. Almost .200 OPS points is a MASSIVE improvement. We can't just look past that fact. I understand that...but is it worth the gamble that you'd be taking in putting a completely untested rookie pitcher into the rotation? I say no. But I understand both sides. Assuming you think the Cubs still have a good shot at the playoffs with a Gallagher starting the rest of the way, you also have to take into account that in the playoffs, Marshall probably doesn't see much, if any, time, while Griffey can very well have a significant impact.
  16. I didn't look at any others, but Dempster's looks fine. 1 K in 2.0 IP = .5K/IP or 4.5/9IP
  17. I could see Greg Olsen starting by opening day too, if not at some point in the season. That would also, likely, be an improvement, despite Clark's nice year last year. Not in the blocking dept. Clark should start. Olsen should get significant time though. I'd really like to see is a formation with Berrian and Bradley on the outside. Olsen in the slot. Hester and Wolfe as split backs. Get Olsen on a nickel back, probably a good 5 inches shorter. Get 2 fast RBs on LBs or safeties. So much speed there... it's just sick.
  18. Depends on how well you think Gallagher could do in Marshall's spot. Almost .200 OPS points is a MASSIVE improvement. We can't just look past that fact.
  19. You think he MIGHT be good for 25 HR/year after this year, and you go on to say you think he might hit 19 HR in two months this year?
  20. David

    This is true. ...but I still say it's ridiculous to essentially call Theriot a prototypical shortstop.
  21. I could see Greg Olsen starting by opening day too, if not at some point in the season. That would also, likely, be an improvement, despite Clark's nice year last year.
  22. you're a girl :?: :shock: What? sori said Lilly could have Soriano12's babies Which would make Lilly a girl, not Sori... Duh.
  23. One of my favorites... http://blueberryln.com/images/excuses_kerry.jpg

    90 wins?

    I haven't been great about updating it after every game, but here's another update. The goal has gotten every so slightly harder to reach as they've only gone .500 over the last four.
