That was probably it. My memory was most likely a little off. Became a fan about 1955. Thanks for the site.
-
Little off topic here, but I recall reading about a cub-reds game circa 1954-55 where the cubs came into the 9th losing 9-1 and won it in 9 innings. Anyone got the historical data on that game?

Say something optimistic about Edmonds on the Cubs

High OBP and SLG PCT have always gone hand in hand with interior decorating skills. -
I think that a platoon of Derosa/Theriot may well work fine. Theriot hit what? .320 in 2006 albeit in only a couple hundred ABs. He CAN be a spark plug. If DeRosa gets the lion's share of ABs at SS it goes a longer way toward the supersub and a reliable OBP guy getting his 400+ . As for Cedeno probably :pig: Get Roberts. Get Blanton if you can. Stay healthy. 2008 will be a good cub year.

Matchups are all set, let's get your predictions.

Redsox Yanks Rockies Cubs ******************************* Yanks Cubs Game 7 Halliday, Toulowitski and Helton combine for 6 HRs, but Ramirez (2), Lee (1) and Soriano (4) hit 7 to edge them. ******************************* Cubs over Yanks in 6 or 7 Miracles DO happen. -
Also, yes it was the triumvirat (sp) of Soriano, Lee and Ramirez who made September what it was for us, but Soriano was first among equals.
-
Completely happy with his production. Plus I love the guy's attitude and love for the game. He'll always K alot unless a miracle happens, but the guy can carry a team with his streakiness if not his heart alone. Lets hope he's the second coming of Reggie.

Who do you want the Cubs to win the World Series for?
professahesse replied to Mizzou's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
The ESPN crew.....so they can finally give us our due. And I hope we beat either the Yankees or the Red Sox. And yes it would be such an incredibly great emotional moment for Ron and Ernie amongst other oldtimers who never made it there. Go Cubs! Win Cubs! -
I, in all honesty, don't think his depth perception is totally there. That pitch on the outside part that he used to be able to decipher as a ball or strike, he is unable to do now. Yes, he has also been TAKING more strikes lately too, or at least thats my recollection.
-
Still hitting well enough, but he seems to missing the away and the low pitch more than usual.
-
Yeah to all of that. Plus there were alot of very weird strikes called that were waaaaay outside of the zone. Does anyone know whether the umpire was waaaay off tonight, or is it just the scorer again? Sheesh.
-
Weurtz, Ohman and Eyre........better have our hittin' clothes on.
-
Is anyone else getting some crazy things happening on Gameday rewcounts? Geez, the scorer had Floyd striking out on four pitches before they got it right and recorded the wild pitch and the winning run. Must be a Brewer or Philly fan doing the scoring, no?
-
I love HBO's John From Cincinnati being your icon. Or as John would reply: Cubs need Griffey Griffey wants to (wouldn't mind to) come to the Cubs please Jim.
-
Keep Marmol. The movement on his pitches gives me a tingle.
-
Ruth Gehrig Aaron Mays Fergie Jenkins Get 20+ years out of each and maybe two hands full of championships.
-
Meche. NL change, younger and good stuff. Z, Meche, Hill, Prior/Miller, Guzman/Marmol/Mateo/Cotts combos will be okay. Get Church, then either keep Jones or trade him plus Izturis, a mid reliever and a couple of prospects for a Tejada or someone . Then we're set.
-
If you look at his game log last year you see a lot of quite good no decision starts which kind of explains his low W-L stat and a a couple very bad outings which go at least a way toward explaining his decent but slightly high ERA. Looked like a lot of quality starts that again he didn't get a W on.
-
Angel Guzman? :) Yeah, but Guzman doesn't have his experience. Seriously, from the look of those highlights I wonder why the guy only won 11 last year. He really has great stuff from the llok of them.
-
Go look at his highlights on mlb.com. The guy has a curveball that is incredible. Also has a fastball up to 94MPH a good slider and a change up. I just became a Meche fan.
-
"We want some left-handed hitting help, and that could come in a variety of areas," Hendry said. "Our priority might not be what position; it's a matter of getting left-handed hitting." Hendry as of yesterday.

For my information and our edification please rank current cub's pitchers both on major and minor league rosters Name/pitches/current and future value/tradeability Thanks.

Cubs sign Soriano
professahesse replied to Rusch33's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
If you want to have a little fun go look at all of the video mutimedia highlights of Soriano's last year. The guy CAN hit and run. -
Yes, me too. They should bring that back. And if the Cubs do well this year the Hey! Hey! Holy Mackeral tune.

Juan "3 base bunt" Pierre.
