    Ugh... I've said it before but I effing HATE how Hughes voice gets excited when bad things happen... Just now I thought it was a ground ball was gonna get through by the way he was calling it but instead it was a freaking DP.

    1st and 3rd nobody out!

    Soriano seems to be really walking more lately. If he actually learns to walk, he'd be a beast... he'd go from a very good hitter to an elite one
  4. David
    Wrong thread
  5. David
    But it would be nice if he could.

    Bingo. Ideally, this would kill 2 birds with one stone if they could find a corner masher to hit #3 next year instead of Lee with Derrek batting #2 or #5 instead. Despite his batting woes, Kosuke is dynamite defenisvely and should be able to handle CF in a platoon with Johnson. Yeah, that's an expensive platoon, but you can't just leave him out there fulltime in a primo offensive slot if he doesn't drastically improve. Was Tex a bad RF or is he going to stay at 1st from here on? He has played 18 games there, 32 total in the outfield, and hasn't played anywhere but 1B since the 7 games he played in RF in 2004.

    Yea, but think of how good we'd be if we actually were getting production in RF. Did Ibanez clear waivers?

    roosevelt brown? seriously, hoffpauir's not the answer to anything. but there may be some complacency from fukudome. am i sensing complacency? yes, i think i am. Hoffpauir has been hitting the cover off the baseball all season long. He also did well in his short time in the Majors. Something needs to change. Fukudome has an OPS of .631 the 2nd half of the season and has been awful since May. yeah, because this season is quickly spiraling out of control. Well, granted, everything is obviously going well, overall. We'd still be better off without a black hole in the lineup, especially in a corner OF position that should be so easy to fill with ~.800 OPS production. I don't think Hoffpauir is the answer to anything, either, though. Not sure what we can do at this point outside of giving Kosuke a few days off. You would think that with his ability to work counts, he'd be less prone to long slumps, but he is adjusting to a new and more difficult league.

    whatever it was, it was hilarious...

    hahaha i just saw last night's game thread pure comedy... loved abuck's "toilet of the internet" comment...
  11. David

    Have you been taking PHD's lately? It's like IMB on steroids. #-o
  14. David
    arammm
  15. David
    He posted yesterday that he didn't see the Reds winning a game this series. Wonder how he feels about Dusty these days.

    4 years and 55-60 million for Dempster past his prime would be one of the most indescribably stupid things the Cubs have ever done, and that's saying something. exaggerate much? That's not an exaggeration. You're talking about giving up to $15M per for 4 years to a 31 year old pitcher who is coming off a surprisingly good year out of nowhere.
  17. David
    Because they would look better without them.
  18. David
    code red
  19. David
    Can you imagine how many managers would kill to have a hitter like Soto batting 8th in their lineup? Now thats called depth. It's not depth when your 8th hitter should be hitting 6th. It just means you have a hitter lower in the order than he should be.
  20. David
    It was Redsox here, Cubs played in New York. n00b
  21. David
    Sure, if you pay for MLB radio.
  22. David
    Cubs/Yankees at Wrigley was effing epic, though.
  23. David
    Surprising without the fallback of the extra playoff spot, but I guess it makes sense given how late in the season we had that lead... but still not near as high as 99% with a month and a half to go.
  24. David
    The Astros are incapable of hitting the ball out of the infield.
  25. David
    Considering we had no shot at the division and only held the lead in the wild card, probably not all that high.
