    SHUT UP, TODD.

    Because Theriot could be a decent Utility player, Santiago isn't good, and Tulo is injured and out until mid-August.

    Is it Pastornicky or Pastronicky? (BA, Cube, etc has it as the former, the news reports as the latter, I think its the former)

    There is a Game Threads forum that already has a thread in it, so...IBL!

    Even if he caught it, it looked like he came up looking to second but the second-baseman hadn't covered and by the time he recovered couldn't make the throw to first in time. Lee just singled in his second AB.

    If either of these teams dove any harder they'd break the field.

    Oswaldo Martinez was sent to Tenn. according to the transactions thread.

    already been said Nah, it's just going to cut to black in mid-sentence ala The Sopranos.

    Chicago Cubs vs. Los Angeles Dodgers Dodger Stadium Randy Wells, RHP 4-6, 4.67 ERA Wells no-hit the Reds until the seventh inning in his last start, the second time he's done that in his career, and won for the first time since April 30. He's switched to a more compact delivery, and it's helped. Clayton Kershaw, LHP 8-4, 3.02 ERA Kershaw's allowed more than three runs just twice this season and is pitching like a true ace. He wasn't able to finish six innings in his last start, but he let up just four hits and two walks, striking out eight. He's only faced the Cubs once his career, earning the win.

    Sounds like the guy will be fine: http://www.wfaa.com/sports/BREAKING-NEWS-Fan-falls-from-upper-deck-at-Rangers-game-97905839.html

    That last pitch to Drew looked like it just stopped.

    Soto is getting another start against a RHP? Has Lou lost his mind?

    Carlos Silva, RHP 8-2, 2.96 ERA Silva notched his 12th quality start in his last outing vs. the Reds with a season-high 7 2/3 innings. He hasn't won since May 29 because of a lack of runs. Silva has a 2.90 ERA in nine starts at Wrigley. Barry Enright, RHP 1-0, 1.80 ERA Enright will make his second career start and, if it's a good one, will be the D-backs's No. 5 starter for the foreseeable future. On June 30 in St. Louis, the right-hander allowed one run in five innings. Cubs face a guy making his second career start? There goes any offensive life they showed yestaurday. Sorry Silva, but unless you through a CG shutout, you ain't getting a win.

    BR lists Cherry and Moore in the Trachsel deal, but the Cubs also gave up RHP Jake Renshaw, a potentially intriguing prospect down in Peoria back in 2007 (who fell off the face of the planet in 2009). What ticked me off the most about that deal was the fact that the Cubs even gave up anything of value for Trachsel, who honestly was not any better than any of the AAA filler in the Cubs' system at the time. Hendry's had some good trades, but one of his nasty tendencies is selling low on players. Felix Pie, Corey Patterson, Sammy Sosa, Rich Hill, Jacque Jones, Kyle Farnsworth, and Juan Cruz all come to mind. Also, a number of his bad deals tend to be ones that are easily forgotten or glossed over. Bill Mueller, Mark Bellhorn, and Michael Wuertz are some guys Hendry sold off for pennies. He also traded for such illustrious names as Tony Womack, Jose Macias, Aaron Heilman, and Neal Cotts. I'm not saying Hendry sucks at trades, but I think some people on this board overrate him because of three really good deals (Nomar, Harden, and A-Ram). In reality, he's had plenty of bad trades. I want to say the Mueller trade was before Hendry was GM. Hendry became GM July 5, 2002, and Mueller was traded Sept. 4, 2002. It was one of his first moves.

    yeah, if he taps it to his left, its an easy goal. That's game.

    Here's a cool graphic of where the players of each nation plays club ball: http://www.estadao.com.br/especiais/2010/06/copa_jogadores.shtm It's interesting that the English only play in England, the Italians in Italy, and the Germans in Germany. Plus the Spanish mostly play in Spain except for a couple who play in England.

    So basically you're taking this year's team and adding Dunn and subtracting Lilly? Yea, sounds like a winner. I feel like should be able to improve at second base in the offseason, but I don't care enough to look up who's going to be available. Unless they trade for Uggla, no.

    It's not technically a bone, its part of a bone. (It's the pointy part of your elbow).
  23. sweetpeteman
    I could only hope...

    For those of you on the list: if you don't feel like starting anymore game threads, send me a PM and I will pull you from the list.
