    Hold your applause please.

    Ronny's going to get a hit.
  3. soccer10k
    Strained right hamstring for Claudio Reyna. We need him to be 100% for the World Cup.
  4. soccer10k
    Come on ARam. Just get the run home.
  5. soccer10k
    Claudio Reyna just got taken out of the game in the 17th minute. It looks more precautionary than serious though. Full report: strained right hamstring.

    Good to see him get out of the inning. Unfortunately at the pace both pitchers are going, the Marlins won't need their bullpen today and we'll have to bring in a reliever in the 6th.
  7. soccer10k
    Theoretically yes.
  8. soccer10k
    Come on DP.

    "Certainly for Dusty Baker, this is not a good start." Thank you Marlins announcers for the insight. I thought that walking the first two players of the inning was what you were supposed to do. Thanks for clearing that one up for me.

    Cubs pitchers walking the first hitter of the inning, I haven't seen that before.
  11. soccer10k
    Come on Kerry.
  12. soccer10k
    That was a quick top of the first. Most likely a sign of things to come.
  13. soccer10k
    I'm predicting a 3-0 US victory over Morocco today.

    Who are the two guys in your sig Flames? I'm assuming the guy on the left is LaMarcus Aldredge.
  15. soccer10k
    more drugs plz. I'm telling you, dude. Once these hard hit balls start finding the gaps, were gonna get the luck back on our side. The Cubs are actually hitting balls hard? That's amazing.
  16. soccer10k
    yep, I'll definitely be watching. And yes, it will be more entertaining because the Bulls have a chance at winning something...something the Cubs don't have a chance at. I always forget about the Bulls fans. BTW, who are the two guys in your sig? I'm assuming the one on the left is LaMarcus Aldredge but I don't know who the other guy is.

    The NBA Draft Lottery will also be on at 430. Even that is probably more entertaining then the Cubs game.
  18. soccer10k
    I agree. I'll have USA soccer on ESPN 2 and the Cubs on MLB.TV. USA I can't wait for the World Cup to start.

    What do you mean by "manufacture runs?" I can't tell if that was a sarcastic question or not It's not a sarcastic question. I'm with you about the lack of OBP. But it sounds like you're in favor of "manufacturing runs" instead of "Weaver-ball." Players with high OBP are usually also players who hit a lot of homeruns. It sounds to me like you want to have high OBP without relying on homeruns. That would be hard to do. Players in the top 40 in OBP last year with fewer than 15 homers: Luis Castillo, Placido Polanco, Sean Casey, Joe Mauer, and Bill Mueller. I really don't know how we could field a high-OBP team that "manufactured runs" without relying on power. Power = Pitches out of the Strike Zone = More Walks = Less Outs/More Baserunners = More runs Basically a proven formula. [sarcasm] But I thought walks were bad? [/sarcasm]

    Why would it matteR? (where's my prozac.) I guess it wouldn't because the Marlins have a lefty pitching so at most we'll get 3 hits tonight. But I want to see an improvement nonetheless.
  21. soccer10k
    Thank you Peter Gammons. Hopefully Hendry will listen to you, although I highly doubt it.
  22. soccer10k
    Oh please no. I think Joe Morgan would be worse than Baker. Although then we wouldn't have to hear him announcing games anymore and Jon Miller could get a competant partner.
  23. soccer10k
    I hope we see a significant improvement out of Wood tomorrow.
  24. soccer10k
    The only thing that could be worse is if the Giants joined the Cards and White Sox as one of the top teams in the league. The LAST thing I want is for Bonds to get a World Series title.
  25. soccer10k
    I'm glad Thomas went deep twice but it's too bad the A's didn't win the game.
