  1. Apparently they think the Cubs have a division winning offense...how anyone can think that is beyond me..
  2. How long do we have to wait before we can proclaim loudly that Kendall sucks w/out the apologists screaming "he's only been here for __ days; be patient!!"
  3. Wells has a career 3.06 ERA against the Cubs. Gulp. I seriously have reservations about tonight's game--hell, the whole series TBH... People just assuming we're gonna take this series isn't helping the concern either. Yes, I am very superstitious...
  4. Ditto. I see the recent hot streak as mostly a correction for the earlier "bad luck," that, and good defense. We can't keep counting on bloop & seeing eye ground ball singles in RBI situations. Someone not named Aramis needs to pop a 3-run homer more often.
  5. Paraphrasing a Hendry interview from about a week ago on what deals he's looking to make: "I'm always looking to improve the team, but I also know we have nice pieces here. I'm not going to look to go out and replace Ryan Dempster. I'm not going to go look for someone to replace Ryan Theriot." I know we should always look for improvement, but we're winning and Theriot is doing a solid job both ways and providing some spark into the lineup and clubhouse. He's done just about everything you can ask for and it just doesn't seem like you should reward that by replacing the guy, especially when things are clicking on the field and in the clubhouse. Obviously, Tejada is and always will be the better player, but I just don't think you go out of your way to improve something that isn't really that much of a problem when you have other problems much bigger than replacing a solid #2 hitter. I'm not saying we should go after Tejada, but Hendry is well known for spewing all sorts of misinformation regarding his intentions. I would give no weight to those statements regarding his satisfaction w/ Theriot.
  6. :shock: I don't know where to start. x2.... Oh, boy....
  7. I agree w/ that. I voted for power when the poll was posted. Come playoffs, having a solid 3 man rotation would be preferred, but b/c of the hole we dug ourselves early, we can't afford to have a black hole as a 5th starter (of course I'm assuming a trade for another starter would require giving up Hill/Marshall)...we need to have a chance to win every game possible the rest of the way.
  8. Well Wood usually follows me getting excited :P cause -----> effect
  9. We definitely need to hit more HRs...
  10. It's gonna suck getting shut-out by Kip Wells...
  11. As Harry would say, "They're dancing in the streets of Milwaukee." Those cheeseheads are Sooo worried about what the Cubs are doing....& they're the ones in 1st place..
  12. IMO, no...especially given the starters that are available for acquisition. LOL You have got to be kidding. Just my opinion...who's realistically available that would be a clear upgrade as a SP? I'm 800x confused, you just said that you wanted a starter, but then you said you didn't want one? Sigh... The original question asked was is there any doubt we need a bat rather than a SP. My answer was "no", there is no doubt--meaning: we need a bat, NOT a SP..
  13. IMO, no...especially given the starters that are available for acquisition. LOL You have got to be kidding. Just my opinion...who's realistically available that would be a clear upgrade as a SP?
  14. IMO, no...especially given the starters that are available for acquisition.
  15. Good job Sean.. Come on you stinking loser of an offense; give this guy some support!!!
  16. Have no fear Vinnie Chulk is in the game now. Who the hell is this guy? Dunno...but I bet we couldn't hit him.. we didn't Well, there you go.. :D
  17. Have no fear Vinnie Chulk is in the game now. Who the hell is this guy? Dunno...but I bet we couldn't hit him..
  18. That kid's arm is gonna fall off... I am expecting nothing out of him in '08...
  19. Can we bring Soto back up please, and actually start him?
  20. Marshall looks like he's settling in...too bad it also looks like he'll get no run support today..
