  1. He had surgery in August to remove bone fragments from his right elbow. He's expected to be ready and able come the spring. I know that, but the news has nothing to do with his elbow
  2. how has all the love for Theriot turned so quickly to venom? http://www.northsidebaseball.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=40194&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&hilit=the+riot
  3. in the article, gibbons suggests that his violation was HGH. I thought there was no testing method for HGH... Or is this suspension based solely on the fact that he bought it?
  4. Exactly my point. These guys are getting paid to play everyday and they pretty much want to be in there everyday. There are days off built into the schedule. Yes, occasionally there are long stretches of the season where you might want to rest a couple of the starters. In that case, take DeRosa out of the SS spot and move him around a little bit and give those players the necessary rest. Lee won't be suspended and hopefully Soriano is over his leg injury. Typically, Soriano averages over 150 games a season, as does Lee. And if Lee does actually take a day off, are people honestly going to tell me that DeRosa will start at 1b over Daryle Ward? I just don't see where DeRosa gets enough at bats filling this made up "super sub" position. Lee won't be suspended, and Soriano should be over his leg injury. But something else will happen. Pie will tear his ACL ala C-Pat, Ramirez will miss significant time with a worsening back injury, Lee will break his other wrist, derosa will lose his knee ala Billy Meuller, Fukudome will cuzz out an ump in Japanese and be suspended whatever. There's nothing wrong with having too many good players, and a guy like derosa allows you to have that one extra guy who hits well with fewer AB's and does well with lots of at bats. Sign a new 2B, SS, and RF for all I care...just get good players. That said, I agree SS should be the priority.
  5. does this mean anything?
  6. no relation
  7. I'm not exactly sure which thread you think this would fit well in. viewtopic.php?f=4&t=45076 :lol: Nicely done. Wow, I never venture into the social forum, but that was, well, awesome.
  8. Tampa Berets
  9. not finished. They're at about 60% of max height It's amazing how fast that building is going up. I see this is going to be quite the circus with the sale of the team. It'd be great if the Tribune got to it already. new stadium on top of the tower? Someone on the 1st page of this thread already beat you to that joke. yeah I saw that too late

  11. aaaahhahahahahahahahahahaha... *deep breath* hahahahahhahahahahahaha
  12. what era would that be. "The brewers not dominating the division" era?
  13. what he should do and what the Cubs should offer are two different things. He'd be better off in the 'pen, but if he wants to start, Hendry better make sure he knows he can do that in Chicago.
  14. Its never about the money. Its about the respect and appreciation of what I do. The money is just a statement of that respect.
  15. You don't remember the great Leo Gomez?!? You're no fan.
  16. :? :?: A-rod opted out of his contract so how exactly is he still property of the YanksI don't think the opt out becomes official until the free agent period begins...in other words, he can opt out of next year's contract and subsequent years, but this year has to be fulfilled and we're not technically at the end of the CBA year.
  17. *in best grizzled vet voice* welcome to the team, son.
  18. Reminded me of Alou on the Bartman play. I don't blame Lilly or Alou, but showing level of that frustration is unlikely to accomplish anything but to bring you and your teammates down.
  19. Nah. 1984 game 5. I was a wreck. Yeah, I was a pretty big wreck then too...I knew it was only one more year before I would be born and I was getting really frustrated not existing. burn! I had just turned 8 and it is the primary reason I had ulcers as a child. BTW today is my birthday...what better present than a CUBS WIN!!! Happy 31st Bday mang! thanks, bro
