  1. Progression to the mean will eventually kick in, imo. Thats what I've been saying for a few days too. Hope your right. that quite a limb you guys are going out on. lol.
  2. is that mike's even less talented half brother? Nope ray's son. http://www.baseball-reference.com/f/fontera01.shtml
  3. Poor you Roast. Because it's an April home series, I am not going to be able to watch one minute of the games Wednesday, Thursday, Friday or Monday. Our first night game of the season isn't until next Wednesday. Ever since I graduated college and started a job, I've been in favor of more night games at Wrigley. Funny how that happens, eh? Because of weekend travel (for work), and day games, I won't be able to watch the Cubs play on TV until that Wednesday night game. I would have appreciated a night game in the first week. Lee Elia says "Hi"
  4. I'm almost certain he didn't. i'm ALMOST CERTAIN he did. I'm almost certain he didn't. almost certain did. Certain almost didn't (Geovanny)
  5. what year did the entire pitching staff get food poisoning?
  6. Yeah because we know that Brian Roberts would have gotten two hits and two walks against Ben Sheets yesterday. Your logic is utterly ridiculous. He's still going on about this!? HAHAHAHAHA of course he is! He's been "vindicated" by Theriot and Soriano's anemic performances Monday.
  7. Yep. Me too. If that was the intention of the tread, ya got me.
  8. Can you declare a thread "season long" on your first post? There has to be some cosmic law against that. Maybe its just a state thing, Idunno.
  9. this is getting carried away. Time to lock? maybe lock on page 299. That'd serve 'em.
  10. Is that something like taking one for the team ? What did Mark Grace call it again? Slumpbusting?
  11. I hear they make you do that in hell... over and over for eternity Nope...just once, but its infinitely long. And he's always thisclose to being traded.
  12. so it has Is Doug Dascenzo coaching?
  13. Live boxscore has Kroeger pitching. Anyone in Chicago care to confirm/correct.
  14. so what is it? The 8 balks?
  15. Because he has no position with the Cubs.
  16. wuertz?? back-up SS?
  17. Does he realize he lives in Chicago? Also, the Cubs are going to have only 79 home games that season because of the 2 @ US Cellular. The who concept sucks. Lets hope it never happens. Where do you get the idea that the Cubs are only getting 79 home games because of the 2 @ US Cellular Field? All teams have 81 home games or is there something I am missing here?? I wasn' thinking clearly, we'd actually get 3 less home games because we play 6 games vs. the White Sox each year, and they'd all me at US Cellular. While we'd play as the home team, it would be like losing 3 home games, IMO. How are those 3 games as the home team at the Cell any different than the other 78? It's not like it's in a different city or something where you're more likely to see more fans of the other team. WHile I'm not going to go as far as to agree with him, I think his point is pretty clear. (in spite of the "gibberish") The White sox would be in their home park for these three games were the Cubs are the "Home team". They will be as comfortable or moreso than the Cubs in the cell. Although putting them in the visitors clubhouse at their own park would be kinda cool...especially if the Cubs could sweep them. "Get out my house!"
  18. Put him behind the dish with that arm...he can't be worse at the plate that Hank.
  19. so its basically cintron, blanco, k. Hill, McGehee, Hoffpauir, and Kroeger plus most of the 40 man?
  20. He's exactly like Die Hard and should follow his example and take his game to Japan where he'd make more money and fare a lot better. I don't think its a valid comparison. While never really highly rated, Hoff had been on the prospect radar for some time. I don't think McClain ever was. McClain bounced from system to system by age 28. Hoffpauir has put up more consistent minor league numbers than Hoff. I still think Hoff has a chance to be a serviceable major league backup especially if he can play multiple positions as asserted above.
