  1. Has any MLB team ever batted around three straight innings?
  2. 29 years old, first major-league PA. I've never been glad for a Cubs opponent to get an RBI hit before.
  3. I'd just throw Chad Fox out there till his arm literally fell off, but I'm a heartless jerk.
  4. According to fangraph.com stats, coming into tonight 179 MLB batters had at least 120 PAs. Out of those, 5 Cubs rank in the top 40 for lowest percentage of pitches outside the strike zone swung at, and no Cubs rank in the bottom 50.
  5. All the doom and gloom when we were losing 2-1 looks *really* funny now.
  6. Cobs are just setting it up to lose 3 of 4 but still outscore the Padres in the series.
  7. Fangraph is the greatest site in the history of the world. Four Cubs in the top 50 in the league in lowest percentage of swings at pitches outside the zone: http://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=all&stats=bat&lg=all&qual=100&type=4&season=2008 *edit to add if you put in a minimum PA of 120, then there are five Cubs in the top 40*
  8. Fuku with a couple veteran's deference calls on balls 3 and 4. Great eye.
  9. If the batting and pitching teams were reversed, that would have been a horrible ball 3 call.
  10. Where are all the people who were wondering where all the people were who thought this would be an easy game? :)
  11. Ryan Theriot is better than A-Rod. Not Jeter, though.
  12. I can't wait until we get the "feast or famine" complaints about the offense Its really just a damn good offensive ballclub Our famines are 3-run games. I like it.
  13. lol, regardless of how you feel about Pie, you have to admit that Reed Johnson is OVERMATCHED!! against right-handed major-leaguer pitchers
  14. I love getting into the pen early in a four-game series. When the other team is throwing Estes tomorrow.
  15. http://www.safetycenter.navy.mil/media/images/n-z/OverNowCdCover.jpg
  16. bases loaded no outs! They'll never score from here, oh noes!
  17. Wolf is one out away from a Sean Gallagher-style good outing :)
  18. GRITIOT is a good week away from a career .360 OBP
  19. http://www.fangraphs.com/lgraphs/280512116_Padres_Cubs_71798073_lbig.png Like I said, 70/30 :)
  20. Maybe. But honestly, it's still pretty much a coin flip. More encouraging than the poster that said the Cubs have a 70% chance of winning this one the highest odds he can give out. Oh, wasn't that you? Yep. With Zambrano's leadoff double, I give a slight edge to the Cubs.
  21. Maybe. But honestly, it's still pretty much a coin flip.
  22. Why would they want to look at stats? They watch the games. That's all that matters. Iowa is going to be loaded in about a week. By my count, they'd have our best CFer, two of our best five starters and several relievers better than Chad Fox.
