No, he was good at Wrigley because he was an other-worldly baseball player for a 6 year stretch from 2000-2005; consequently, those were the years he played in the National League Central against the Cubs. So facing the Cubs "pitching staff" (and I use that term loosely) had nothing to do with it? Really? I agree he had good number those years, but facing the Cubs staff had a lot to do with those numbers at Wrigley. Daniel Garaby strikes fear into the hearts of no one. -
What I wish the Idiot would say about this: :banghead:

Well it's just an OK contract, as long as this doesn't effect Urlacher or Hester getting their money. I agree it's a little much, but he does get the job done better than most.

I'm gonna go kill myself. it isn't the worst signing of all-time guys Tied for the worst?

You suck Marquis -
Yucky...This looks close to being done by tomorrow... From CBSsportsline fantasy reports: edit: This was a report already stated a few pages back about how Edmonds told his agent to contact the Cubs first.

4/29 Brewers (Sheets) @ Cubs (Marquis) 7:05 CSN

Wow...this game got bad quick. -
Sean Alexander... Should the bears contact him?
-
So is this where we will post our draft reactions, or are we going to have a gameday thread deal? I'm getting my house painted so I am going to need something to do while they are here.

I'm confused, how can there be no running in baseball, but there is hustling? Is that like fast walking? I think if Aram walks faster, things will be much better for him.
-
Because Z was running?

Soriano's skills haven't diminished. Well then he has no baseball acumen. How about a diminished stats clause? 130 million just doesn't buy much anymore. Someone tell Soriano that just because the dollar buys a whole lot less doesn't mean that his play has to diminish in kind. It hasn't diminished, though. He's coming off one of the best years of his career. Hendry got exactly the player that he paid for. It's not Soriano's fault that Hendry was out of his mind. I'm glad they didn't call up Murton. He wasn't going to play, anyways. And we all know that middle infielders make the best outfielders. Middle infielders make the best EVERYTHING!! Grit baby, just plain grit!

They need Murton down in AAA to mentor the kids. Show them the ways of being good, but not a lead off hitter, or left handed.

I am pretty set in the steals category in my league, my power is a bit lacking. My OF is Markakis, Cust, Derosa, Fukudome, and Ellsbury. My DH now is Ben Broussard and my 1b is Morneau so if I trade for Huff then he would become my DH. My other starters are Soto C, Betancourt SS, Kinsler 2b, Lowell 3b (DL, but I have Derosa filling in for him now). I have gone through this one in my head, in stats books, spreadsheets, etc. and my team is slightly better with Huff. Just wanted to get a couple of opinions if I should do this trade or not. I love Ellsbury's potential, but who knows when Crisp will get traded. This is not a keeper league. Thanks for the input! eta: This is an AL only league with the Cubbies in and the Royals out.

Delay delay delay...Ugh! At least the weather calls for 48 and sunny on Wed when I am going to the game!

Its snowing here.

Exactly. Keep the faith my brother... I'm still hoping we trade for Adam Dunn personally. Dude clogs the bases to much, not enough grit. And that batting average? Bah!

1. Male or Female? male 2. Have you always been a Cubs fan? yes 3. Have you ever heard of the Curse before? unfortunately, yes 4. Do you believe that there is a Curse preventing the Cubs from going to the World Series? no 5. Do you believe that some fans use the Curse as an excuse for the Cubs loses? yes 6. What reasons can you give to explain why the Cubs haven't had a World Series win in 100 years? bad players, bad management, bad luck, really bad player development, inept coaches.
