    Edmonds is old. End of story.

    I dunno, it may be ok for 60-80 innings a year as opposed to 166.7 his rookie year. Also the willingness to throw it might be indicative of a more complete health/confidence in his health.

    those guys would not have gotten the shot in Chicago they did in Fla. They were buried in a pitching deep system at the time.

    And they still couldn't knock him around. Pathetic-er

    No, but the naming rights will be sold to the highest bidder with the Wrigley company already stating that they wouldn't be in the bidding. With a new corporate ownership of the Wrigley name, some bright exec might find keeping the name of the field the same would buy both quality advertising and good will.

    Looking at the Cubs schedule that year is just so depressing. I remember that year really well. Incredible start and it looked like the Cubs were going to steamroll through the season. Then one pitcher went on the DL. Then another. And another. And another. Then the entire starting rotation was on the DL at the same time. tough to manage through that. I remember that year too. I really thought the Cubs were going to win back-to-back division titles until the bottom dropped out. The pitching situation seemed similar to 2006, with one major difference. In 2006 the Cubs had legitimate pitching prospects that were called up earlier than they otherwise would have been, but I think that experience helped some of them (such as Marmol and Marshall) last year. In 1985, however, they were starting AA-quality pitchers who never pitched in the majors after that year (anybody remember the legendary Steve Engel, Johnny Abrego, and Derek Botelho?). Yes, some of us remember..... but we're trying real hard to forget, eh? :wink: Was that the year of the bad Mayonaisse?

    I for one don't mind having Hill treated with kid gloves. Its a lot better than watching Dusty run Prior out there with an 8-1 lead and over 100 pitches under his belt. If Hill's arm doesn't fall off, I am proven right. How's that for logic?

    If you lift a lot of weights, your muscles get bigger. If you lift a lot of weights and take steroids your muscles get a lot bigger. I can pretty much promise you if I dedicated myself to a strict diet and specific workout program over 1 year you would see a remarkable difference. In 3 years it would be huge. Its very possible. Not to mention that these athletes have the best trainers, technology and equipment, PLUS rather than dividing time between family, job, workout, this IS their job and they're away from family.

    It was the fastball he was having trouble with. The curveball was just fine. It was breaking well, but it was all over the place. If he was struggling to locate his fastball (and he was), the location of his curveball was 10x worse.

    the 2003 bean ball wars made me hate the Astros more than I could ever hate the Brewers. That said....I hate the Brewers.
