  1. I don't think even Rammy can sufficiently help this pathetic offensive team. Might as well go under the knife (if the prognosis is that would be "better" for him long term) & come back for 2010. I'm so sick of the impotence of this team right now
  2. "Oh oh!!!," if that's true...
  3. I could care less which pitcher gets the W; bullpen outside of Marmol has been stellar today I don't really care either, but it has to suck for Wells.
  4. Soooo, Patton, pretty much a non-entity, is in line for a win, and Randy Wells, who has been awesome, gets screwed by his bullpen/offense yet again? Man, there's no justice
  5. Maybe someone here could advise both of them that the Cubs have been sold & re-located to Vancouver? We can pass the hat & buy their one-way tickets.....
  6. Hill is catching. Yup, both of our catchers are anti-clutch behind the dish
  7. Go ahead & groove one Gregg, you know you want to
  8. yep, he must have had a feeling. Or he's thumbing his nose @ the mandate for the Cubs to be more left-handed; you know how much of a trouble-maker he is
  9. So does the game of baseball in general. I really don't see the point in flipping out over someone using a corked bat when most players are doing every little thing they can to gain an advantage. It's part of baseball. Keeping someone out of the hall for that would be like keeping out one of the best pitchers of an era because he got caught once with sandpaper. Like I said, he got caught for the bat and was suspended. That shouldn't keep him out. Like it or not, nothing and nobody has come even remotely close to busting him when it comes to steroids. That doesn't mean he didn't use them, but for now he should be judged based on his performance. The corked bat should have negligable impact in that regard since use of them over his career would have been detrimental to his numbers. I just meant that the cork incident is relevant in the speculation of him using drugs because it shows that he has cheated before I don't think I'd feel comfortable indicting him for PED use based on corking... They don't seem to be of the same severity. Corking/spit-balling, just don't "feel" like they rise to the level of willful misconduct that PED use does. I know, it's inexact at best, but that's how I feel about it.
  10. Hmmm, turn off TV & avoid watching Gregg blow another one, or watch in morbid fascination?
  11. Wow...good job Hoff...glad my pessimism was wrong. BUT, now the 'pen will this :-))
  12. Bradley & then the pitchers I think.... No one else since it appears Milton will never be put on the DL
  13. Nope; there's no realistic alternative, is there?
  14. At this point would it hurt to try it? Has Angel gone back-to-back games yet? Can he? Not that it's necessarily a prerequisite...... He did right now. #-o
  15. Thatta boy Angel, bump up that trade value so JH can get a A ball prospect who'll get released a month later....
  16. At this point would it hurt to try it? Has Angel gone back-to-back games yet? Can he? Not that it's necessarily a prerequisite......
  17. Which piece of trash would we move up though? Blanco? Lou might as well go all Dusty now & cement the thinking that he's just lost it.
  18. Last year's team didn't suck until October. This team has pretty much sucked from the get-go. Last year's team had a relevant bullpen. This year's team has no bullpen whatsoever. Also, this. And the fact that this year's team can't score. Bad bullpen, impotent offense....yup, you're 2009 Chicago Cubs
  19. When I've seen the rumors, that's what would happen. Holliday in left and Soriano to 2B. I know Sori would be awful at 2B, but man would it help our offense. It would definitely be fantastic for the offense. It's almost tempting to pull for it. I am seriously warming up to the idea, but IMHO, the only way wed be able to land Holliday without giving up Vitters would be to get Shark to waive that pesky NTC of his, which I think is a possibility. Why do you think it's possible? Everything I've run across suggests strongly that he would not waive his NTC. Just curious...
  20. Come on Ted, stick to the script....get out of this, and let the bullpen blow it
