  1. Way too simplistic. Please change poll to "do you consider yourself a jerk, or a nice person?" Like I said in the thread, if I catch the thing on the fly, with what would be a bare hand, I'm leaving with the thing. If I pick it up on a lucky bounce, I'll give it to a kid that might have had a chance at it, as long as his Dad isn't claiming rightful ownership. EDIT: I voted "jerk"
  2. I think you are severely underestimating Stone's knowledge of the game. If that is the only thing you took away from his broadcasts you weren't listening very much. You're right. Add button 'D' - "If he gets a hanging slider middle-in here, So-and-so is going to crush it"
  3. Wow I wouldn't have thought he was k-ing at a higher rate this year than last. I'll still take it.
  4. Like I say in pretty much every game thread, I love New Aramis
  5. That was a make-up call for some borderline pitches falling the Cubs way. I was ok with that one.
  6. wow lou has decided he would rather not win this game
  7. I'm not sure what I would've done if Reed had gotten thrown out there
  8. Guys, I've decided I'm gonna drink till Marquis is good at pitching
  9. Possibly Angelina Jolie related? :good:
  10. :D "Hey, Zambrano's had a pretty good year" :-s "Thanks for not being a troll, that's nice to see" :evil: "He was banned for being a troll" :-s "What did he post that was trolling?" :evil: "He said that Zambrano was having a pretty good year." :-s "What a dick" Yeah, I liked how deferential the guy was to that ass of an admin. "How DARE you have a contradicting opinion!?"
  11. Hmm, DSL means something quite a bit different to me. And it has nothing to do with the interwebs, either.
  12. You mean you don't wish to start a rumor that the Rangers are fielding offers for Josh Hamilton? Good move :thumbsup:
  13. This is great for you. I reserve my right and the rights of others to hate the Sox, if only because they hate us. However, I have a better reason - the meathead fans I went to college with. Insinuating that it's petty or immature or whatever to root against a team that isn't playing us at the time is on a par with Sully's "meatball Edmonds haters" foolishness. Posts like these really tend to stifle friendly debate.
  14. This is a cool idea that I wouldn't do because I believe Marshall and Gallagher can stick in a traditional 5-man major league rotation. Given that the coaches don't seem to agree with me, I think this is the next-best way to maximize each one's contribution to the team, despite a an inevitable decline in trade value for each "mini-starter"
  15. And Cedeno has a .289 OBP in 774 at-bats. People tend improve after a year at the majors because they can spend the offseason studying film and adjust accordingly. Theriot is probably slightly better than the .357 OBP (which BTW Lee's is .367). Plus .357 is one of the best career OBP's on the team. And Cedeno is certainly better than the .289 he has although probably not as high as Theriot's because he's not as patient. I think it's about time people stop being stubborn, admit they were wrong (all of us are one point or another), and start cheering for him without having the thought in the back of the head slightly hoping he does bad. Huh? He may see less P/PA but his pitch selection appears to be much better and their walk rates are almost identical.
  16. He's not great but his .973 fielding percentage is .011 higher than Cedeno's and is in the middle of the pact for starting SS (16th among players who have played at least 30 games at SS). He's nothing to look at but he's not horrendous either. He also beats his former Cardinal twin Eckstein by a wide margin. I think Soriano would be a better shortstop than David Eckstein.

  18. That schmuck has nasty stuff, IIRC. But no matter. Mega Cubs get it done
  19. He is just desperate for some media attention. And he'll get all he wants in NY. Stupid ESPN
