rypien goes after campbell, gets laid out, and the stupid canadiens cheer and nice uncalled elbow to kane right in front of the ref

I didn't see the game. What the hell was Lou thinking?

khabi that was pathetic

Yet another terrible day for Dempster, Heilman, and Patton. Only 4 years left on Dempster's contract!

How? Two games without Bradley and Ramirez is the same now as it was a week ago. I'm saying the fact that he has to miss 2 games is more magnified now that we're already missing one of our big bats in the lineup.

James Andrews? Great

Is this new? http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=4154761

No but it's more magnified.

And it could have been zero games if he just did what's best for the team.

agreed let's get Hire Paul Depodesta (without logan white) or Ned Colletti and get Sandberg to manage. I guarantee that will bring a winning mix :roll: What the hell is this supposed to mean? Are you even reading this stuff or are you just detemrined to use that rolling eyes smiley? I'm talking aobut his offseason moves, which have been garbage. I don't really see what Lee and Soto have to do with anything. I never blamed hendry for either of them. I blame Hendry for our bullpen, Bradley, DeRosa, Dempster, Miles, Wuertz, Gaudin... although some of those are TBD. Oh and as for Dempster, wasn't hendry the one who gave him a huge contract this offseason? Thanks for adding to my point. If you'd like to actually address the reason for this thread, which is the offseason moves, then go ahead.

And a home run to of all people Ryan Braun! He sucks and never hits home runs! They should just give up now. I can't believe they are in last place and haven't even won a game yet. Unacceptable. Nice worthless post. Are you saying that Heilman hasn't sucked this season? Are you saying that Jim Hendry's offseason moves haven't been terrible so far? I guess your original worthless post deserved another, huh? I am saying an average reliever gave up a home run to an all-star caliber power hitter. Guess what, it happens and it will happen again so if you plan on watching 162 games this year you probably should get used to it or you are going to have a coronary attack. And no, I don't think Felix Pie (worthless) and Ronny Cedeno (worthless) is overpaying to get Heilmann even if I am willing to accept your hypothesis that he is also worthless. The Cubs are over .500 and within striking distance of first place despite a lot of bad luck so far with injuries. Hardly worthy of the "disaster" description. But the bottom line is that you hate Hendry and pretty much criticize every move he makes so every time something goes wrong you get all excited and break out your "the season is over and it is all Hendry's fault" posts. First of all, it wasn't the home run that pissed me off. It was the fact that he walked a guy on 4 pitches to lead off an inning in a one run game... with 2 red hot power hitters on deck. And like I said, Heilman has been pretty crappy all season. Also, Olson is a decent pitching prospect. Hendry made a good trade by getting him for Pie, then ruined it by throwing him away. Lefties who can miss bats always have some value. And I don't really get the "we're a few games over .500, what are you talking about? stuff. I'm talking about the offseason moves, not the overall team. The reason we're over .500 has absolutely nothing to do with Hendry's offseason moves. It's in spite of them. So excuse me for venting frustrations after we had an offseason where every move seemed terrible....and then a month into the season..... big surprise.... they're terrible.

Ownership

Link? I'd be absolutely thrilled with that.... but I'm not getting my hopes up Really though I don't see how he could no that without an MRI even done yet

ASB seems like best case scenario

And a home run to of all people Ryan Braun! He sucks and never hits home runs! They should just give up now. I can't believe they are in last place and haven't even won a game yet. Unacceptable. Nice worthless post. Are you saying that Heilman hasn't sucked this season? Are you saying that Jim Hendry's offseason moves haven't been terrible so far?

Yeah, we're not making the playoffs. Good thing we're in all out win mode!

Heilman with another walk and then serves up another bomb. We're getting 2008 Heilman, not 05-07 Heilman. Good thing we overpaid to get this worthless piece of trash while we gave away a significantly better reliever for nothing. Hendry deserves to be fired for the disaster this season is becoming. This is inexcusable.

Braun hit one down the line and Aramis dove to stop it. The play itself looked pretty harmless but he immediately started rolling around in pain and grabbing his hand and then his shoulder. It looked reallllllyyyyy bad

We're going to need offense to replace him though... not defense. Beltre is a great defender but he can't hit

well that was necessary

this season is so depressing it's not even funny. i have had zero fun this season

And then have less to offer for other things we need If we lose Ramirez for months, tell one thing we'll need more than a starting 3rd baseman? I'm not saying I wouldn't do it. I'm saying it still hurts us because now we have to use resources on something else

I know this is terrible logic, but if Zambrano hadn't gotten hurt, this would have never happened. Awesome luck for the Cubs.... as usual

And then have less to offer for other things we need

So if it's a dislocated shoulder with nothing torn (plzplzplzplz), how long are we talking? Like I said before, I'd be happy if it were only a couple months.
