  1. That was a painful inning. But it's okay since we still have 18 outs left. Plenty of time.
  2. The basket should retract when the opponents are up to bat!!! That's a brilliant idea.
  3. They'll probably limit him to 80ish today, that about right?
  4. I still think that ESPN could run a "Not Top 10 Defensive Plays" and they would have a hard time narrowing it down if they only considered Adam Dunn plays. My personal favorite was when he got crossed up on opening day and ended up tripping over himself on the warning track.
  5. Is it possible to combine Blanco's defensive ability with Barrett's bat and just make one catcher? That would be nice.
  6. Is Barrett or Blanco catching today?
  7. How has Guzman looked today so far? I just got out of class and am watching the game in a computer lab.
  8. Today's game will end up like that, but with the Cubs winning 10-0. Guzman is going to pitch well and the bats are going to do some damage and we'll come away with our second sweep of the year.
  9. You're so wrong. We're going to lose three more games. But that's it! I'm going with 4 games but thats just a minor detail.
  10. I would much rather see Marshall getting more starts in AAA and having Rusch waste away in the pen rather than having Marshall waste away in the pen. He's a starter and should be starting in either AAA or ML level.
  11. Just bringing the thread back. And padding my post total. Alright.
  12. Holy crap I'm in third!?!? Now only if Adrian Beltre would start hitting.
  13. Did they mention it during the broadcast today? I thought I heard an announcer mention it. I might be wrong though.
  14. I don't think Alex Gonzalez was brought in for his offense either. That bum.
  15. Hopefully this guy doesn't go Victor Diaz on us...well, technically he can't cause Victor Diaz isn't a pitcher...but Diaz did hurt us and was a Cubs fan and that's what I'm referring to. I hope people understand what I'm saying or trying to say. :shock:
  16. It's early in the season and averages are easily affected by one good game or one bad game. I remember a three game stretch for Derrek Lee last year against the Dodgers and Padres when he went 3-5, 5-5, and 3-3 in consecutive games and his average rose from .363 to .389. And that was at the end of May. If Pierre even has one 4-4 game right now it's going to significantly raise his average to the point that people expect it to be. But if he follows that up with an 0fer then it's going to drop his average significantly. It's April. Let Pierre get 150 AB's. Wait until the middle to end of May to criticize him. He hasn't been very good so far but saying you are getting sick of him is ridiculous. If he's still hitting this poorly at the end of May, I'll criticize him as well.
  17. As much as I wouldn't want that to happen, at some point in will and I think half of the people are going to die. I also can't wait for Pierre to have a couple good games in a row because I guarantee you I will start a "Crow Anyone?" thread.
  18. Do you honestly believe he's slower right now and that he'll be faster in June or July???? If he's so slow now, why is he 7/7 in stolen bases? According to those numbers, if anythings he's faster now than he will be later in the summer... Maybe he'll be so fast in the summer that he'll be rounding second before the catcher even has the ball. Maybe in the summer they'll give him two stolen bases for one attempt so at one point he'll be 25/23.
  19. I agree. I don't think switching around the outfield would do much.
