    I hope the Cubs don't get Sweeney, not with that contract. Where do they move him when Lee does return?
  2. CaliforniaRaisin
    AAA first baseman, sharing time with Brandon Sing since Sing has started the season slumping.
  3. CaliforniaRaisin
    Can we just bean Furcal all series long when the Dodgers come to Wrigley? Hopefully with Zambrano leading the way...
  4. CaliforniaRaisin
    If you want to blame someone, it'd be better to go after Furcal for running 2' inside the line.
  5. CaliforniaRaisin
    What the heck? I don't buy that part of the report. Be it Sullivan or Levine, neither one is the epitome of credibility, by any stretch. That's what I was thinking.
  6. CaliforniaRaisin
    What the heck?
  7. CaliforniaRaisin
    At this point, I expect we'll hear something tomorrow.

    He was throwing it towards Long Beach/the Pacific Ocean (due south). The wind must have done some nice tricks to make it go east. It looked East on my TV screen! Heh. A HR to straight away RF would be east.
  9. CaliforniaRaisin
    Kind of hypocritical given what you said about Corey last year. Please don't label other posters as pessimists and trolls.
  10. CaliforniaRaisin
    You were the first obvious Neifi post from when the discussion in the other thread shifted, that's why you started the thread.
  11. CaliforniaRaisin
    :( That's one way to put 7 ER in 2 innings. On the other hand, you're doing a great of announcing, though! How did Yepez look?
  12. CaliforniaRaisin
    Geez, Sotolongo and Rayborn have completely blown the Chiefs' 8-2 lead in the 7th. After 7, it's now 9-8, Beloit.

    You jinxed him. He popped out in the 6th with Norwood at third and one out. :( Yepez: 6 IP, 6 H, 2 ER, 2/2
  15. CaliforniaRaisin
    Yepez getting some groundballs now - he got a GIDP to end the 4th. 4 IP, 5 H, 2 ER, 1/2, 2 GIDPs, 49 pitches Peoria scores 2 more in the 5th, it's now 8-2. EDIT: 5 IP, 5 H, 2 ER, 2/2, 2 GIDPs
  16. CaliforniaRaisin
    This is what a lot of us mean when we say the Trib owning the Cubs isn't the worst ownership possible. Ugh.
  17. CaliforniaRaisin
    But the Chiefs have regained the lead here in the 4th, and are still threatening. Geez, the Chiefs have broken it open now, 6-2. Still in the 4th. They're now up to the 9th batter of the inning.

    But jigman (honest question), is Rothschild calling the game from the dugout if it's Maddux, Z or Rusch? couldn't tell you with Rusch. with Maddux, it appears Michael is calling the game this year, but I recall the calls in Maddux games often came from the dugout last year. Z worked mostly with Blanco last year, but Barrett called the game the other night. I do know that last year and the year before, nearly every pitch a bullpen pitcher threw when Barrett was catching came from the dugout. edit: well the pitch didn't literally come from the dugout...you know what I mean It's not to say that I don't think Rotschild does or doesn't call the games for the veterans (I think Maddux at least would have the leeway to call his own game) - it's just that I'm not sure who is to fault (and don't want to rush to blame) at the sometimes questionable pitch selection.
  19. CaliforniaRaisin
    Not really, he was hitting .318/.448/.614 on the season and had two shots that would have been HRs if they weren't playing in Chavez Ravine the last few days.
  20. CaliforniaRaisin
    No more Neifi posts here, you have another thread for that. Let's leave this thread for updates on Lee and Eyre and for spreading bad vibes to Furcal.

  22. CaliforniaRaisin
    Thank you! I'm sick of the Neifi bashers. Both sides are at fault.
  23. CaliforniaRaisin
    I couldn't tell from where I was sitting, but it looked like he had poor control on his curve - much worse than Marshall's lack of control. Was this right or was he also missing with his FB?
  24. CaliforniaRaisin
    He did work hard on the conditioning last offseason. It is to be expected that he faded a bit last season, since it was his first full pro season - way more IP and a longer season than in HS.
  25. CaliforniaRaisin
    Everyone drop the Neifi subject now. Also, no criticizing of posters.
