    I'll be ok with it as long as it means he gets to take his lumps against lefties as well

    Did Dusty make out this lineup card? No, but a dude who thinks a lot like him did. What I've seen from Lou this year is really not very encouraging.

    The Sox already had plenty of power. Lee is the better offensive player when it comes to HR and RBI and AVG but what Podsednik gave the Sox was a player who could manufacture runs, a player who could beat out an infield hit (40 in 2005, 16 of those bunts), a player who could get on base (.419 OBP leading off the game in 2005) in the first inning and be at 2B by the time the meat of the order came up. He was the spark for the Sox in '05 and the offense suffered when he was out with an injury later in the year, which almost cost the Sox. Pods reminded my alot of what Bobby Denier did for the Cubs in '84. So say what you will about old baseball traditional positions but there is a reason why they are traditions.....it's because they work more often than not and in 2005, it worked like a charm. This is garbage. The 2005 White Sox did not win the world series by manufacturing runs. They won by pitching out of their GD minds and hitting a ton of homeruns. They won despite Podsednik and if you're kidding yourself if you think otherwise. EDIT: 200 HR, to be exact, good for 4th among AL teams

    This is disgusting. No, seriously, I'm disgusted. I know that you are a Brewer fan, but who in their right mind (who isn't a Brewer fan because Brewer fans aren't in their right minds) would take Pods over Carlos Lee? This was a trade that helped the Brewers IMMENSELY. Why would you pretend like you gave up anything to get this trade done? Like, anything at all? The belief that there are magical people that lead your club to some sort of prosperity is disgusting. It really disgusts me. Your leadoff hitter is the guy who gets on base the most and if you don't believe that then why am I even talking to you. Stupid waste of drunk time.

    Yeah, great outfield but FTH is with Hart over Upton?

    http://img218.imageshack.us/img218/5540/grammarkv8.gif what's your point? My point? I posted a picture of a grammar text book. What the heck do you think my point is? That post makes a hardcorecubsfan fan post look like a Noam Chomsky essay. It reads like one of those fourth grade Grammar class problems where you have to fix the paragraph. Crap that was done a little preemptively. So did Dusty get booed or not? Some of us don't get Comcast sports

    Stfu you nerd to a guy with 20k posts is a poor start on this board This post makes me nostalgic for Cubs.com. "I swear I'm not a troll"! Isn't that the first thing they teach you in troll school? Love, love, love the pajamas comment

    i'm not so sure... 2004: 687 PA, 168 K (24.5% K/PA) 2005: 481 PA, 118 K (24.5% K/PA) 2006: 498 PA, 94 K (18.9% K/PA) 2007: 503 PA, 65 K (12.9% K/PA) So? Whether it's strikeouts, pop outs or ground outs, he still makes the same amount of them. Last year he struck out almost 30 times less than 2006 in only two less at bats and his OBP still dropped. Dude you were just proven wrong, give up already. What? No he wasn't. Even though Corey's strikeouts have dropped he is still getting on base at the same low rate No feed-y the trolls more like don't feed the cubs fan. Okay, I think that's enough, Meph

    Orel Hershiser's 59 scoreless innings streak

    Come on, Meph, it's not funny anymore.

    I didn't expect him to say that Neifi sucked out loud. Couldn't he have told a much more defensible lie like "Neifi deserved to be there," or something? Yeah you're probably right. We Hawkeyes have got to stick together. Your avatar is an Iowa wrestling logo, no?

    This was pretty funny from the article: Zambrano said he has cut down ''a little bit'' and compared it to when Bartolo Colon told his team he was on a diet. ''When you see him in the clubhouse, he's eating fruit,'' Zambrano said, ''but you walk by his room at the hotel, and there's six pizza boxes Thanks, guys for pointing out the highlights for those of us too lazy to read the story!

    Is this a joke? You're thinking I might pick Trachsel over Marshall or something? BTW, OBP and SLG aren't sabermetrics.
  18. javy knows my name
    LMAO @ Demp and Dusty! Great, great pics
  19. javy knows my name
    I hate Phillies fans with a passion. They have no idea what they are cheering/booing about during a game. P.S. The area around the park looks like a total dump

    It was his first one, until point #9. This unflinching faith in the Cubs organization, specifically with regard to player development, is pretty troublesome. I don't think it is at all a stretch to think that not playing Felix every day is hurting his confidence and his ability to adjust at the major league level. Continuing with your ridiculous comparison, I think it is safe to say that we would see some improvement in the guy's play if he were getting, say, the Justin Upton treatment where he is allowed to take his lumps for 300 or so at-bats. As many have said before, it has ALWAYS taken Pie a little time to adjust to a new level, given that he is relatively new to baseball despite being a supreme talent, and has always been young for his level. Someone earlier said that he was glad that you don't run the organization, and while I am as well, it seems that lots of people of your mindset do, and again, it's pretty troubling.
