    THROW A STRIKE, YOU HAD HIM 0-2. About time you make a good pitch Ryan.
  2. soccer10k
    That is the ninth walk we have issued today.
  3. soccer10k
    If we're going to give up runs can we at least make them hit the ball?

    Hey Dempster he's our man. If he can't blow it, Ohman can.
  5. soccer10k
    Thank you for reminding me there is a bright side. No problem.

    Is Dempster trying to get Dusty fired?
  7. soccer10k
    ? Hill had 70 pitches through 3 innings and 87 through 5 innings.

    Come on Dempster. Close this game out.
  9. soccer10k
    Nice pitch Eyre. Hopefully Dempster can hold onto the lead in the ninth.
  10. soccer10k
    That should have been a double play. Nice throw Eyre.

    Nice catch Ronny.

    Michael Barrett getting his hits in before he has to serve his suspension.

    Neifi must not be listening to you.

    Bynum hit a HR today? Wow.
  16. soccer10k
    How did Z look today?
  17. soccer10k
    Just got back from class and I'm amazed that the Cubs are actually winning. Saw Jones lose the ball in the sun. And thank goodness Dusty is taking Z out of the game.

    I keep trying to point out that Lee went down in game #14, but this team didn't die until game #20. Sorry. I forgot about that. You're right. Fixed. The Cubs did just what I expected them to do after Lee went down: tread water for a little while and then fall off the map.

    He's an idiot because he assumed a Cubs fan came from the midwest? Yes. Why do I have to be from the midwest to be a Cubs fan? That's just stupidity. You don't have to be, but what is wrong with assuming you are? Whenever somebody sees me at a Cubs game or with Cubs gear they ask me if I'm from Chicago and/or if I just came out for the game. If you had a conversation with him about not being from the midwest and he just refused to believe you and insisted you had to be in order to be a Cubs fan, then that's stupid. But just asking if you're from the midwest because you're a Cubs fan is not stupid. He assumed that I traveled out to Sacramento just for the Iowa Cubs game against Sacramento and for no other reason. I don't remember his exact words but he definately implied that. Sorry if I didn't make that part clear, I realize the quote I gave was quite vague. Asking if I'm from the midwest because I'm a Cubs fan isn't stupid, it's an honest question and I get that all the time.

    The team OPS is down over 0.1 and the team ERA is almost two runs per game higher since Lee went down. Wow.

    Fair!!?? It's bull. Rodgers got 20 for attacking 2 cameramen and it was reduced to 13 on appeal. 13 for a SP is like 2-3 starts. 10 for a catcher is like 7-8-9 games!!! I said the same thing in another thread and somebody else used a different player/pitcher example. 10 games for a position player is 1/16th of a season. 10 games for a pitcher costs him 2 starts which would be approx 2/32 = 1/16th of a season. So they both lose the same amount of playing time.

    I'm not sure if Pie merits a call up. His AAA numbers are decent but not spectacular. I think he still has some learning to do. While last night's 3 walks are a good sign, like I said, he only saw one strike total in those three at bats so he didn't really have to work the count so to speak. He also had a horrendous swing on his strikeout. I would still like to see him get the SO/BB ratio down. He didn't really show me anything that made me go "Wow" last night. I went to a couple Sacramento River Cats games at the beginning of last year when Dan Johnson was still at AAA and he looked awesome. I know they are two different types of players but Johnson hit a couple home runs and hit everything solid. It's hard to judge on Pie because really only had 2 at bats to do something so I think the jury is still out on whether he should get called up this year.

    Cuban completely turned around the Mavs organization and has made them into a perennial playoff team. Give him some time before you criticize him for not winning championships because he's only been in control of the organization for a few years.

    Our rival is currently the Pirates. But once we pass them for last place in the NL Central, then we will not have any rivals.
