    Loney is kind of worthless for fantasy and Hudson is highly replaceable once he comes back towards his normal numbers. You can probably find guys as good as those 2 in free agency.

    The Cubs don't really have any pitching depth at all.

    let gordon walk and then go hard after one of the 2010 guys. we already have one bad contract with deng, don't do the same thing with gordon (not saying gordon is as bad as deng).

    god rondo is such a little bitch
  5. 17 Seconds
    well at least we won a series

    i'm starting to agree with kyle's 5 game prediction. the hawks just look outmatched.

    You mean right now it's really, really good. Unless you think Chris Duncan will stay a 1.021 OPS hitter, Molina an .882 OPS hitter, Brian Barden a 1.047 OPS hitter, etc etc

    He should have caught it easily
  9. 17 Seconds
    He was still good because he wasn't giving up hits, but he wasn't as good as he normally is. His BB/K in his last 4 starts was 16/19 (22 IP). Walks were way up and he wasn't striking as many guys out.

    Yeah that's pretty inexcusable
  11. 17 Seconds
    Given the circumstances, I think it's very much worth it. We're talking about another full week that we would have been without him. With the way the offense is performing, we really need him back.
  12. 17 Seconds
    So we're comparing every injury to Prior now? If they didn't know that he was really going to b back in the next couple days they wouldn't have pinch hit with him and reset his whole DL timetable.
  13. 17 Seconds
    Except that he wasn't as good
  14. 17 Seconds
    Well they said yesterday he's almost ready and he pinch hit today so.....

    Why the hell is Aramis out a week, yet not just going to the 15 day dl? Because then we wouldn't have him for this entire next week
  16. 17 Seconds
    Those are definitely honorable mention, but the wors of all may have been not trading Lee. Um he has a NTC and most teams probably wouldn't want the rest of his contract anyways
  17. 17 Seconds
    think of the trade possibilites if we had weiters and snider instead of vitters and colvin.

    Everyone keeps saying "we're not this bad"... What does everyone have to base that theory on? Nothing. Our bullpen is horrendous. Marmol - Another 2 walks tonight. Gregg, Heilman, and Guzman - atrocious. The offense SUCKS! Over their past 10 games, they have scored a whopping 38 runs, or 3.8 a game (keep in mind there were two games where they scored 10 and 11). This team is simply not good. They overachieved last season, and this year they are underachieving. I'd say we are an 80-85 win ballclub as we stand right now - a far cry from the 'best team in the NL' or the 'Team to beat in the NL' as everyone has stated. If the bullpen doesn't improve, then we'll be lucky to win 75 games. What do I base the theory on? It's called putting your fandom aside and being objectionable. They were never going to win 97 games. They've had basically everything go wrong so far and they're around .500. Does this team have issues? Absolutely? Could they tank? If they catch some bad breaks, absolutely. But if you look at the roster of this team and the Cardinals and Brewers, they are still better. The offense might not be stacked like last year, but they should be above average still, assuming they stay relatively healthy. The bullpen is the thing I'm concerned about.

    Khalil Greene is the best SS in the NL according to Meph (P.S. Rasmus slugging through 60 at bats is about the same as Felix Pie's OBP for his career) So, really bad then

    even though the bulls won an epic game, this feels like an absolutely disgusting sports night. i hate sports sometimes.
  21. 17 Seconds
    yup campbell is still garbage
  22. 17 Seconds
    lol @ blaming that on walker
  23. 17 Seconds
    wow, good job versteeg. that's 3 terrible passes in like the last 35 seconds
  24. 17 Seconds
    You really need to stop. It's kind of embarrassing.
  25. 17 Seconds
    How long will the organiation keeo blaming it on injuries? I do think people are going too far with the "we're done" stuff. We're 10-11. It's really ugly right now and this team has some very real problems, but they're not this bad. I do hope this will put to rest the "I'm not worried abut the Cardinals" BS that's been going around (You know who you are.)
