  1. Those bitches are just going to lose today; there's nothing to get excited over.
  2. I've thought I would go down in each of the previous rounds, so I have no aspirations of beating Raisin. I'm honored to make the finals. That being said, I'll do a little campaigning. 1. Derrek Lee to the ASG. 2. Hottest Chick Polls 3. Numerous donations to the predictions contest. 4. Cubs as Monroe's home team. 5. Whatever else you can think to give me credit for... Vote Vance...A Man For All People.
  3. He must not be sure he wants to remain a Yankee.
  4. I would consider Patterson because of the depth we have at second; there's no way I'd deal Veal for Dye. Dye's numbers indicate last year was a fluke. While he's not as bad as he's played, I'm not sure offensively that he's an upgrade over Floyd. I think if given the chance, Murton could be just as productive as Dye. Unless he's cheap, Dye should not be acquired. Paying a price as high as Veal would be dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb.
  5. Donaldson doesn't surprise me since he's played college ball in what is realistically AA.
  6. Maybe if we put all three guys averages together, they'll add up to a .300 catcher! Nope. They still come up short.
  7. Brad Lidge was activated today, so he should be available to blow a save during this series.
  8. Until he's denied, I'm going to hold out hope.
  9. Excellent news. Hopefully, he's given a fair shake. I'd love to see Maverick Mark buy the team.
  10. That's excellent news.
  11. A ham sandwich would be of better use than Hill...at least w/ a bat in his hands. But what about the CERA man!!!
  12. According to press reports, he's already in Chicago and participated in workouts today.
  13. Here's an article on the Ricketts family's interest in the Cubs.
  14. Here's a USA Today article on the issue.
  15. End of the 6th, Mets lead 3-2.
  16. Reds and Mets tied at 2. Keith Hernandez is brutal in the booth. He makes Plesac look like a good commentator.
  17. Wow...this is turning out to be a bigger landslide than Raisin's victory over Reds44 in the NSBB polls, and I never thought I'd see another one that lopsided again.
  18. I don't see why we're carrying three catchers...especially when two of them don't even belong in the major leagues.
  19. Arod...easily. Play him at short, play him in RF. It doesn't matter. Arod's value dwarfs Ichiro and I don't even think it is close.
  20. Unless there's a major shakeup and possibly a trade, I would think that move would wait. They were willing to push their luck for a good 3 weeks talking about the so-called need for 12 pitchers. Now that the entire bullpen is completely rested, I would think they'd be willing to wait another week or two. Well, Dempster is due back from the DL sometime during the San Fran series next Monday-Wednesday, so I'm fairly certain that's as long as they would wait, but I guess we'll see.
