  1. I have mixed feelings on Jason Dubois. These are just some of my thoughts. Please feel free to give your input & thoughts on what you think of JD now & what you think he will bring the Cubs in the future. Positives: His walks last night were very encouraging. Has prodigous power if picthed down the heart of the plate. Showed he can go to the opposite field if pitched on the outside corners. Hasn't made many if not any baserunning errors, which is encouraging for a rookie. Consistently hits the cut-off man & doesn't try to do too much with his arm. Negatives: Still gets fooled often by off speed stuff, but looks like he's improving. Very shaky defensively in the LF. Patience @ the plate is improving, but still a weakness. I wish Dusty would seperate in the order the best he can Burnitz,Corey & Dubois. Maybe put Barrett in the middle of those 3. Those 3 are bigtime K/free swing hitters. Thoughts??? Left Field is newer to him, I believe he was a right fielder before. Plus he's a rookie, we can't forget that, so he's learning both the league offenisvely and defensively. Experience will benefit him, but I'd agree in putting someone more consistant and feared behind him. He'll eventually adjust to the breaking ball down and in and when that happens, look out.
  2. A really ugly line, actually: Pitchers IP H R ER BB SO HR PC-ST ERA A Sisco (L, 0-1; B, 2) 1.0 3 2 2 1 2 0 25-14 1.89 It looks like they tried him as a closer. Probably not the best idea on KC's part. I suspect it will be interesting to see how he reacts now, since he had so much early success. While he bounced back nicely from opening day, this may have a more substantial effect on him. Why'd it have to be against the friggin' White Sox!? Hey JC, why do you think that this game will have more of an effect that the opening day game problems. To me i would think the opening day game would have destroyed his early confidence...which it didn't. The thing with sisco is though no one knows him, we'll see how the league adjusts over the year.
  3. Is this the only way to have an avatar, because i notice a lot of users have new avatars on what seems to be a weekly basis yet aren't under the userpic avatar list... Premium users can link to outside avatars on their own. ahhh, that makes sense Tim, thanks for the quick answer....thats it i'm going premium, i'm on this thing everyday anyway and i love it.
