  1. So how many first inning runs for the Sox? I call 2 on a home run from Dye.
  2. I feel like punching the guy in the green behind home plate in the face. It's the first inning in a regular season game guy. Calm down.
  3. Why are you using errors to determine how good a defender is? It's not perfect obviously but someone who is close to leading the league in errors for his position isn't having too good of a season. Lee has been good but to his normal level so far. I don't that's really true at all. All that means is he's botched a few routine plays. Routine plays don't make a defender great. The things that make Lee a great defender have still been there all season.

  5. They won 1-0 on an error by Jered Weaver. How many times has a team won a game without a hit? http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/gameday/index.jsp?gid=2008_06_28_anamlb_lanmlb_1
  6. Am I the only one that thinks his defense is a bit overrated? It seems like a ton of balls go over his head, he always seems scared of the wall even when he's not close, and at least twice in the past week he's turned singles into doubles/triples by taking a bad route to the ball and having it get by him. I mean, he's a good defender, but is he as good as everyone makes him out to be? I'm not so sure.
  7. The Tigers got back to .500 in a hurry.
  8. I think starting pitching is hurting us more than injuries right now. We're still scoring runs, we just can't keep the other team from doing the same. Part of that is the Zambrano injury, but Dempster, Marquis, and Gallagher have all been brutal this week.
  9. They've been about 5 games back for over a week now.
  10. Just checked and... yep..... Livan Hernandez is still terrible.
  11. Everybody says that every time we go through a little rought patch.
  12. Why? Because the Cubs have hit a rough patch? Cause we are on the road. And we are beat up. And they are playing well. They've lost 2 in a row and are also playing on the road. 2 in a row to the hottest team in baseball A) The first loss was to the Braves B) The White Sox have a better record than the Twins
  13. Why? Because the Cubs have hit a rough patch? Cause we are on the road. And we are beat up. And they are playing well. We went 1-2 to the Orioles at HOME So? The Orioles play in the AL East and are above .500. Control yourself and stop freaking out like a child.
  14. Why? Because the Cubs have hit a rough patch? Cause we are on the road. And we are beat up. And they are playing well. They've lost 2 in a row and are also playing on the road.
  15. Why? Because the Cubs have hit a rough patch? Dude they are 1-4 in the last 5 giving up about 40 runs in these games Also known as a rough patch.
  16. God damn you're so annoying. ....So this week hasn't been pathetic? You know perfectly well that's not the point. I'm talking about you say "LOL" or "ROFL" 3432422 times in every game thread when the Cubs do something bad. Get some new material or something, it's obnoxious.
  17. What the hell is this 2007 Cubs crap? The 2007 Cubs went 41-40 on the road I'm talking about the offense.
  18. Why? Because the Cubs have hit a rough patch?
  19. This team is just completely different on the road. They look scared. They look like the 2007 Cubs.
  20. Is Theriot hurt? I wasn't able to watch yersterday or today's game so I haven't heard anything.
  21. Well, at least the starting pitching is being exposed early enough that Hendry will realize this team is going nowhere without more pitching and can do something about it before the deadline. Yeah run-on sentence.
  22. Not sure if this is the right forum to post this in, but whatever. Does anybody know if Florida is planning on giving him a shot anytime soon? I'm just curious. I checked out his numbers in Albequerque and they are obscene. 28 bombs already in only 245 AB's (.310/.423/.706). I know it's the PCL, he's almost 28, and he's had multiple shots at the big league level, but still. What is his deal?
  23. By the way, this has been an awesome game.
