  1. I don't see the A's giving up on the season enough to trade Harden. I'm not impressed enough with Harang and think the Reds would want too much for him. Bedard is being skipped in his next start, and the Mariners asking price is too high there. Burnett is probably the best bet.
  2. I'm not that disappointed. I figured that if the Brewers were willing to include LaPorta, that Cleveland would have a tough time walking away from that deal. LaPorta might see time in Cleveland this year. Hendry can't be faulted here. We didn't match up, especially with the Brewers offering LaPorta. The Cubs still hold a 3.5 game lead. I still think we have the better team than the Brewers. Now, we'll have to see where Hendry goes with Sabathia off the board.
  3. Ward should have used his size to his advantage and run over Molina like a semi truck.
  4. Nifty play by Lee there. Let's add some runs against the Cardinals pen!
  5. He missed the glove, but it was over the plate around the knees, it looked like a strike to me. Gah, Geo. But Marshall isn't getting the same call. My gripe isn't so much that the pitch was called a strike, but that it's not being consistently called a strike to both teams.
  6. Strike one to Aramis also not a strike. Ump sucks today.
  7. I can't believe there is no mention of the Cubs in that story. It makes you wonder what Hendry is doing or if indeed his hands are tied with this pending sale of them BS. :banghead: I think it's as Bruce reported. The Cubs didn't match-up well with what the Indians wanted.
  8. If true, Hendry needs to get Burnett or Harden. If indeed true, than the Cubs "lukewarm interests" in AJ Burnett, is no longer lukewarm. I hate being a fan of a team that is reactive, instead of proactive, but if the Cubs could land Burnett or Harden, then I won't mind. I don't think saying we're reactive is fair in this instance. Word was that Hendry was actively after Sabathia, we just didn't have the players to match-up well with them.
  9. Basehit for DeRosa. It's time to remind Wellemeyer, that he's freaking Todd Wellemeyer.
  10. That strike one to DeRosa wasn't a strike last half inning. Very inconsistent zone today.
