    He wrote a series of columns for Yahoo that heavily advocated sacrifice bunting, hits and runs, and ripped on a variety of statistics. I don't know how that will affect his skills as a hitting instructor, but I'm guessing this team is going to work on a whole lotta bunting next season if he's the hitting coach. Man, those yahoo columns were [expletive] brutal. I wonder if they are archived?

    I remember Ryno always taking the first pitch. . . ALWAYS. . . .. and as much as I idolized the guy, it always bugged me that he took EVERY first pitch. I hate to see a guy like Joshua get the ax, but if they are insistent that Ryno manage the club, it's not a bad idea for him to get his feet wet right here. . . .see how he interacts with major leaguers. . . . for an entire year.

    so they climbed 8 spots (14th to 6th) in hitting and Hendry claims there was not significant improvement?

    has this been posted anywhere? Surprise -- Bradley not having a good time in Chicago. Don't worry, it's not his fault. Also, he knows why the cubs have lost for 100+ years!!!! http://www.dailyherald.com/story/?id=322741&src=152

    They couldn't beat the Rams at football. . . . . .on the other hand, they couldn't beat the Rams at baseball, either.

    get to 10 games over .500 and see where they are at. I know it sounds silly, but that's the way I'd look at it.
  8. bhogg
    I think they're all crappy!

    Bob is challenging Lou's decision to bring in Miles.
  10. bhogg
    i'd love for Lou to quit tonight. . . . .just for poops and giggles.

    At this point, you have to think that watching the wheels fall off this team's smoke wagon will be way more entertaining than sneaking into the playoffs and being fooled into thinking they are worth a damn.

    Breaking Down

    bhogg replied to Rob's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk

    I agree --- this kind of stuff is incredible. I also agree that Hendry and his cronies have no [expletive] clue.
  13. bhogg
    Even if he wasn't terrible, he'd get fired. That would be no fun having your childhood baseball idol getting canned. . .. . even worse: wanting him to get canned. I can't imagine them bumping him from AA to the majors. I guess he could get a major league coaching job with the Cubs.
  14. bhogg
    He's managing in AA. I know that. What I'm getting at is that (assuming) the majority of us don't see him manage everyday. Maybe you manage minor league guys different that you would major leaguers. I really don't know. Granted, if he's come right out and said he's a sac bunt, hit and run type guy that's probably not what the club needs.
  15. bhogg
    Not that I want Ryno as the team manager, but just exactly how do we know what his managerial philosophy is?
  16. bhogg
    how much violence and / or nudity is allowed in a game thread? The interwebs may not have enough to get the Cubs out of this funk. . . . . . . If I were to do a game thread, tomorrow's is all I could do. . . I'm heading out of town and couldn't be relied on for the remainder of the weekend.
  17. bhogg
    I bet he could lay off the slider low and away
  18. bhogg
    I'll take James Westfall as manager and Dr. Kenneth Noisewater as GM.
  19. bhogg
    Am I the only one who dislikes Fukudome hitting 5th? Just hit Soriano there. . . .or anyone else. . . .I really like the Fuku - Bradley 1-2 combo.
  20. bhogg
    this team is [expletive] pathetic
  21. bhogg
    I thought he was saying "you stink" that's what I thought, too, but the ump actually has a curved "witch" nose. . . . .
  22. bhogg
    was Lou making fun of his goofy looking schnoz?
  23. bhogg
    Jesus, that wasn't even close. . . no tag. . . no where near the bag. . . . . .what was the ump doing out there?
  24. bhogg
    I heard Miles' name. . . .what the hell, Lou?
  25. bhogg
    but you couldn't tell me what the Cubs record with Miles on the rosters is? Amazing ;)
