  1. There's still a silver lining: the Cubs don't have $50 million coming off the books with this free agent class coming up.
  2. Man, you know game threads are dead when not even the irrational Dempster hater shows up when he gets shelled.
  3. Here here! Your efforts make the slog of a gruesome major league squad a lot more enjoyable.
  4. This game is worth it alone purely to watch Starlin's excellence. He's the player that reminds me I'm not watching the Iowa Cubs.
  5. I'm at the game. Pleasantly surprised that Coleman has a 1 hitter. The Nats staff led by Livan Hernandez looks like the Cubs middle relief tonight.
  6. What does everyone think about acquiring Carlos Pena in the offseason? He seems like a middle class man's Dunn to me.
  7. A Pirate fan isn trying to talk us off the ledge. The Cubs make me feel like I'm walking into work with a black eye and telling everyone I walked into a wall. I wouldn't trade Steve Bartman for Dave Littlefield though.
  8. Needless to say, I've never seen a veteran team make so many fundamental mistakes. Dog days of summer indeed.
  9. Here's a story from MLB.com: http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20100807&content_id=13145972&vkey=news_mlb&fext=.jsp&c_id=mlb I hope he becomes a senator or Fortune 500 CEO someday.
  10. Here's a story from MLB.com: http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20100807&content_id=13145972&vkey=news_mlb&fext=.jsp&c_id=mlb I hope he becomes a senator or Fortune 500 CEO.
  11. Field conditions are usually worse in the minors. The first basemen don't save as many errors as Derrek Lee either.
  12. That type of abuse is why Prior is on the Orange County Flyers. Man, imagine the Texas rotation if they kept DVD. (Danks-Volquez-Diamond)
  13. I thought Yahoo omitted a stolen base. How did that happen?
  14. When's the next time that Fred will miss the game thread?
  15. Are all baseball fans this stupid? Or just Cubs fans? People are comparing this deal to the Lou Brock and Greg Maddux trades. It just doesn't compare. That guy said he was a better defensive shortstop than Starlin Castro.
  16. Why do we do this to ourselves? Watching these games gives me the same existential dread as watching Troll 2.
  17. Let's hope that Wrigleyville isn't soon awash with Padilla jerseys.
  18. I hope the Cubs chip in the $4 million to get a better prospect. They will save that much in salary by the time the prospect gets to arbitration.
  19. Two months of Lilly(the best starter on the market) and a pretty decent chance at a first round & sandwich pick. Lilly is (arguably) the best starter LEFT on the market. The teams that were prepared to pay up, have already filled their needs with better guys. Now what's left are the bargain-hunters, so this should come as no surprise. The only person better than Lilly to change hands is Oswalt. It's not like 4 teams have added SP and the Cubs are left to deal Lilly to either the Pirates or the Royals. The Yankees, Mets, Tigers, Dodgers, and Twins have been linked to Lilly. Haren Cliff Lee
  20. I was SO tempted to start a "Soto traded to CLE for Jhonny Peralta" thread.
  21. Can you imagine any thread getting 69 pages in a month right now?
  22. Carlos Torres (CHW) faces Thomas Diamond (CHC). Diamond just struck out the first batter he faced and walked the second. He has only thrown fastballs to the first two batters. Diamond leads the PCL with 92 strikeouts and .213 opponent average.
  23. Is it me or do these complete rosters seem really unbalanced?
