I'm watching a Champions League highlight show instead.

Absolutely not on Luis Gonzalez.

The difference is that the Twins took just about every precaution with Liriano while the Cubs have been reckless with Prior, Wood and Zambrano. Aside from the pitch counts, I don't see any difference in the way the Twins dealt with Liriano's injury and the way the Cubs have dealt with Prior/Wood.

CUBS WIN!! Now please excuse me as I call my father to laugh at the Dodgers because they lost 4 out of 6 to the worst team in the National League.
-
You know that's not happening. Dempster will be in for the ninth.

That will help in the Fecal League Standings.

Is Jim Hendry's job REALLY safe??
soccer10k replied to don_kessinger_was_good's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
If the Cubs suck again next year with what will likely be a new manager, then Hendry will be on the hot seat. But I don't think he is right now even though he should be. -
Way to get picked off there Juan.

220% on Sunday's, eh? That's a lot of support. -
Yeah, he's been looking solid in the 88-90 range with his fastball now.
-
Please, most of us are men, not women.

Len just referred to Theriot as "The Riot." Awesome.
-
Then pick a new favorite team.

Crappy Gameday. It just said "in play, no outs recorded" and then it was suddenly a 2-run homer. That's probably because the ball hit the foul pole, bounced back onto the field of play and Pagan tried to pretend that the ball was still in play.
-
I haven't been watching too close but the fastballs I've seen have been in the 85-88 range.
-
Contrary to what the title of this Game Thread may say, this game is being played on 9/14 and not 9/13.

Sounds completely mean spirited to me. I think its brilliant. I wouldn't actually ruin his painting though, I'd probably put some sort of plastic wrap around it before writing on the plastic. He would likely be very distracted. If you actually defiled the painting that would be mean-spirited. But doing what UMFan83 suggested would be hilarious and a good idea.

Ichiro Rumor???
soccer10k replied to hardcorecubfan's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
Three things come to mind: (1) Ichiro is under contract for $11M in 2007. Free agent after the 2007 season. (2) Near as I can tell, he did not get a no-trade clause in his last deal. (3) On several occasions last year and last offseason, Suzuki questioned Seattle's commitment to winning and their managerial choice. If there is a private feeling amongst Seattle management and/or Ichiro that he will not be a Mariner in 2008, it may be in everybody's best interest to deal him this offseason. Cubs certainly have the financial wherewithall to get him, and his OBP would be a big improvement. Cot's has Ichiro without a no-trade clause. -
4-12 for the rest of the year is all I ask for.

Come on man is that really needed? He has a serious health problem. All he has done is try to get a spot on a big league team, he hasn't hurt anyone. Get Well Glendon. Save it. If your gonna spew venom do it towards everyone making comments like this. Soccer10k said pretty much the same thing I did. Furthermore, Im pretty sure those who have been around here a while know im not the type of person to try to slam someone when they're down. It was nothing more than a light-hearted comment. Dont get your undies in a bunch. Frankly, I don't see a problem with either of our comments. I said I hoped he got better (which was sincere even though I said for the 2008 season) and expressed my desire to never throw another pitch for the Cubs again. I was not being sarcastic and did not imply that I didn't want him to get healthy again. For yours, I'm sure you meant no ill will towards Glendon and were just trying to make a joke. I laughed. We didn't say we hope this forces him to retire. We didn't wish serious physical harm upon Glendon. I don't really see the big deal with this. Other people besides myself and Roast said things along the same lines.

Has he really "figured it all out" since? AVG .312 | HR 17 | RBI 74 | OBP .372 | SLG .501 6 triples, VS. LEFT: .288 / .885 VS. RIGHT: .312 / .845 HOME: .312 / .893 AWAY: .302 / .820 He strikes out kkind of lot, but I'd say he's doing just fine Wow, I thought he was doing a lot worse than that this year. Serves me right for being too lazy to click my mouse a few times and look up his stats. Contract year. If he does it next year, then I'll believe he figured it out.

Hopefully he'll be healthy for the 2008 season, you know, when his contract with the Cubs is over.
