    I'll be watching. My brother and his wife are at the game.

    I really approve of that :D . Seriously, those numbers seem reasonable, as long as there are no mishaps or injuries, and with this team it's more likey that the pope gets married than the Cubs having an mostly injury free season. Oops...that should be 490 on Jones. I'll correct it.

    I'm not against signing Edmonds, but I'm not all that enamored with him either. His injuries concern me. I do prefer him to Pierre, of course I'd prefer a lot of players to Pierre. If Edmonds would sign a 1-year deal, I'd be more inclined to sign him. With Pie in the minors and Pagan on the roster, there is some depth to account for him if he does get injured, which is highly likely. He still was able to post an 831OPS this season which isn't bad from a CF, but he's seen a drop in BA/OBP and especially his SLG. I think he's a better option for hitting second than hitting fifth, but that wouldn't affect whether I'd sign him. If I settled for Edmonds in CF, I'd want some improvement over Theriot at second. If I could get Edmonds on an affordable 1 year 5-6 million deal with an option year around the same amount, I would probably look to sign Durham for 2b. I think this line-up with projected numbers in parenthesis could be productive enough. 2b Durham (285/360/440) CF Edmonds (260/350/480) 1b Lee (290/385/550) 3b Ramirez (289/352/560) RF Jones (280/320/490) LF Murton (295/360/450) C Barrett (285/350/490) SS Izturis (280/300/350)

    Can Wuertz save the day for the rest of the pen?

    Dillon hurting his arm early last night before earning any points has hurt my chances, but a TD from either Duece or Colston and I'm up.

    I'm in agreement with goony. I'm not really optimistic now, but I think it's too early to judge.Some properly spent FA dollars and I might feel a lot better about next season.

    Holy Jebus! Four runs in the first!

    If we were actually in a penant race, I might have skipped work to watch this one...or try to find a way to watch it at work. As this season has been lost for some time now, I don't care.

    If Hendry felt he couldn't sign him he would've traded him at the deadline. Right? I'm hoping at least... I think Hendry has shown he lacks the ability to think that far in the future.

    And yet, some think we should avoid counting on Prior as he is too often injured.
  11. vance_the_cubs_fan
    No! It should read Larry Dierker!!!!!

    If the Cubs ended up with Manny, I'd probably go for Durham over Soriano. Manny provides the power we need and choosing Durham over Alphonso frees up money to help get some more pitching.

    This will likely end any support Smith had for the HOF.

    I don't know if Seattle is this good, or the Gnats are that bad...but this game is turning into a rout.
  15. vance_the_cubs_fan
    Gnats must like giving up big leads early.
  16. vance_the_cubs_fan
    The Gnats are bad....really bad.
  17. vance_the_cubs_fan
    Eli looks poor against the Seahwaks. I don't think he does well against good defenses.
  18. vance_the_cubs_fan
    NY Gnats are imploding in Seattle.

    It depends on the rules for your league. In some leagues it does, but in most it doesn't.
  20. vance_the_cubs_fan
    Can I get last year's Delhomme back, plz? And thank you Rex for that TD for my defense.
  21. vance_the_cubs_fan
    Kasey makes it. I'm still not all that impressed with either Carolina or Tampa. The NFC is going to be a wide open conference this year.
  22. vance_the_cubs_fan
    I don't think Carolina can afford to start 0-3. Playoff aspirations could end today. Furthemore, fumbles by Delhomme are killing my fantasy team. :x
  23. vance_the_cubs_fan
    Wow....Chris Simms sucks.
  24. vance_the_cubs_fan
    Bruce, Is that his name in the clubhouse or simply your personal pet name for him? :lol: When they traded for him, that's how Dusty referred to him. Awww...that's sweet.
  25. vance_the_cubs_fan
    I'm ready for some football!
