  1. Hey...... it's not as cold over here as they told me it would be! We'll be scratching each others eyes again soon enough, I'm afraid.... :wink: Ehh, we'll see. The suckiness of the Cubs and the awfulness of the MacPhail/Hendry/Dusty trio has sucked all the arguing out of me. :(
  2. Of course part of me says we should first see how Lee rebounds from the wrist injury.
  3. Is the freaking US game really on at 6 am tomorrow morning (9 ET)? :x
  4. My core would be Z and Lee too. Everyone else can be had for the right price, but more than likely, I'd keep Barrett, Aramis and Prior too. Guys like Cedeno, Marmol and Marshall are great kids who are cheap and have a bright future, but they can also be valuable chips in a trade for a guy like Cabrera.
  5. Plus Marmol and Wells could slot in at closer and do a good job, imo. Dempster would be a far more valuable trading commodity than anyone else who's likely going to be moved by the Cubs.
  6. Thanks for the link. I assume Carlos Marmol would have been on the team instead of Ryu had he not been promoted. First time Felix Pie hasn't made the roster in 3 years (last year he didn't play but he did make the initial roster). Looks like Fergie Jenkins will be coaching the World team!
  7. I find that these days I care far less about those other teams I used to hate. Instead, I spend most of my time in disgust at Dusty, Hendry, MacPhail and Co.
  8. It's not often I agree with K-Town. Are you coming over from the dark side? 8)
  9. Just for you, Outshined: Jeff Samardzija is not expected to pitch for 7-10 days while he works on his mechanics (and waits for MLB to approve his contract).
  10. MWL All-Star game box: The East beats the West 7-1 1B Ryan Norwood 0/2 RP Mitch Atkins 1 scoreless and hitless IP, 1/1, HBP 15 pitches (9 strikes), 0/2 GO/FO RP Matt Avery 0.1 scoreless and hitless IP, 1 pitch (1 strike), 0/1 GO/FO RP Jeff Teasley 1 IP, 1 H, 1 ER, 1/1, 17 pitches (8 strikes), 0/1 GO/FO RP Ed Campusano 0.1 scoreless and hitless IP, 1 pitch (1 strike), 0/1 GO/FO
  11. Probable Starters: Iowa: LHP Rich Hill (3-1, 2.38 ERA, 56.2 IP, 76/12, 0.92 WHIP) vs. TBD West Tenn: RHP Juan Mateo (4-3, 2.03 ERA, 53.1 IP, 40/17, 1.05 WHIP) vs. RHP Anthony Lerew (0-0, 0.00 ERA) Daytona: RHP Mark Holliman (4-4, 3.16 ERA, 74 IP, 71/32, 1.14 WHIP) Boise: RHP Billy Petrick (2005 @ Daytona: 1-4, 5.59 ERA, 37 IP, 25/19, 1.57 WHIP) vs. LHP Orlando Lara Billy Petrick, the Cubs #5 prospect entering 2005 (per BA), returns to the mound for the first time since his labrum surgery: http://boisehawks.com.ismmedia.com/ISM2/PlayerManager/498.jpeg.300.jpeg
  12. That top 100 list was constructed before this, but at PG National Michael Main topped out at 98 or 99 MPH depending on which scouts' gun you trust. All of the games will be put up on baseballwebtv.com soon. There were something like 15 pitchers who touched 94 and 50+ who touched 90. Justin Jackson also had a great showing there. Information on what happened there is hard to find, but I do what I can. Let us know if you hear anything else. Thanks!
  13. Haha, Payton grabbed and held Terry on that last play. No call. Terry had a good look, though. :( Congrats, Jason Kapono! The only worthwhile Heat.
  14. It was the right play, Dampier was streaking towards the hoop and Dirk was going to be doubled. Too bad Dampier has stone hands (and he would probably have travelled or commit a foul if he did catch it).
  15. The NBA is a joke.
  16. Then call a really bad lose ball foul against Daniels. Wade barely got touched, let alone fouled.
  17. So who ever said Corey would be a HOF player?
  18. Oh whoops, just realized I coulda watched the game on WGN. Eh, oh well.
  19. Haha to Howard dropping his shorts while Shaq was shooting FTs.
  20. We'll see how he's recovered from the labrum surgery.
  21. Now 7-1 in favor of Eugene. 4+ IP, 6 H, 7 R (6 ER) for Downs.
  22. Eugene now leads it 3-1 in the middle of the 4th.
  23. Well then, I want Sene.
