Well...I'm not sure. They're both horrible. Lima 2006: 0-3, 14.1 IP, 14 ER, 8.79 ERA, 1.81 WHIP Rusch 2006: 1-5, 32 IP, 26 ER, 7.31 ERA, 1.56 WHIP This following a year in which Lima was 5-16 with a 6.99 ERA.

Good riddence to the guy who cost the Cubs a World Series appearance in 2003.

Wood sore shoulder; might not make next start
soccer10k replied to UMFan83's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
As opposed to what? Wishing he wouldn't come back healthy and pitch well? As opposed to having him just leave without the Cubs being able to at least try to get something for him. If he pitches poorly he hurts us because the Cubs will lose and nobody will want to trade for him. -
I think Wood and Maddux coming off the books will make us the favorites to get Lee. Would you offer 4/40 for him? Not so fast about Maddux coming off the books. When we lose Wood, we might want to keep a 12-14 game winner in the 4th or 5th position. We'll have Z, Prior, Marshall and ....... I agree. I think whether or not we resign Maddux should depend on both how he does this year - namely towards the end of the year - and how much money he asks for. As for Jacque, I think pretty much everybody can agree that he should be platooned regardless of what position he plays so he doesn't have to face lefties.

mabry shouldn't have been punished at all. if you think of it in terms of a players contribution soccer, it makes sense. while a pitcher only pitches every fifth day, that means missing two starts as bad as a position player missing 10 games (ie they each miss about 1/16 of their playing time). I should have clarified my first point. I was only referring to Barrett, whose suspension I agree with. Mabry's I don't agree with unless Anderson gets suspended as well. But you should either suspend both Mabry and Anderson or neither of the two. But it isn't fair to only suspend one.
-
I think the reason for it was because it didn't seem like Pierzynski wanted to fight. With other fights, like the Farnsworth-Wilson, both participents usually jaw at each other before fighting. But this is what I don't understand about MLB suspensions. They don't seem to realize that suspensions mean different things depending on whether are you a starter, reliever, or position player. A 10 game suspension for Barrett should theoretically mean 20-25 for a reliever and 50 for a starter. But it never works out that way. MLB just hands out general suspensions without factoring in the players position.

I almost wish that Wood would come back healthy and pitches well for a little while so we can try to trade him before the deadline and at least get something for him. -
"And, this game is over."

6-4-3 means one out away from a victory.
-
Nice hitting Ronny.
-
If anyone else had hit that ball, the though of a home run would have crossed my mind. But I knew it was Pierre so I knew it was going to be a harmless fly out. Let's go Ronny. Give us some insurance.
-
Nice pitch Howry. Grab some pine meat.
-
Pujols hit #22 today.
-
Nice catch Juan Pierre. End this inning Howry.
-
"That's ball four. YES!!" Idiot White Sox announcers.
-
What exactly did Mariotti write about today? By the way, I find it funny that Hawk bashes him on the air. This is the only case I agree with that idiot. In a round about way he said AJ got punched because of his reputation for being a punk. It's the truth. I'm surprised this is the first time somebody has decked AJ. It's too bad Bonds didn't go after AJ like he did with Kent when they were both on the Giants. That would have been funny.

Jacque must have sold his soul to Satan.
-
JACQUE JONES!!! ALRIGHT!! Errors will kill you.
-
Take THAT White Sox.
-
starter That's what I figured. It makes sense the starter gets the loss, but I just wanted to make sure.
-
I have a random question and a hypothetical situation. A starter leaves a game with any one run lead - let's just say 4-3 - and two runners on base. Then the reliever comes in and allows the two inherited runners to score, but nobody else and the team loses 5-4. Who gets the loss, the starter or reliever?
-
Todd Walker 3 run homer.
-
Konerko's on steroids. That's the only explanation.
-
Do you think the Sox walk ARam next inning?
-
2 HR for ARAM. He's really responding to being dropped in the order. That was pitch was lower than the first one. I don't know how he managed to hit that ball.
