Holy Crap Reed Johnson!!! Marquis I swear to God if you blow this game. We have given you 4 runs of support against 1 of the best pitchers in the game, dont blow you dip.

Seems to have disappeard since that 1st win. Updated 1-2 and one mighty ass whooping.

But all the Cardinal fans have said he'd be back in July and immediately regain Cy Young status???

I havent heard Lou mention DH'ing Soto at all yet. He has talked about Lee a couple games and Aram, and at the time Soriano, but not once has he said Soto for some reason.

He was pushed back a day. Should have started yesterday but they jumped Z ahead of him.

Yea that was an extreme viewpoint, but hilarious none the less. I agree, I dont think Edmonds gives 2 craps what the fans think of him.

OK I knew I was right thanks guys

They will recieve 2 picks

I love that they have started playing "Go Cubs Go" on the radio and on the TV after a Cubs win. Ok quick question about the "hey hey" call. I have a Cardinals fan friend, who tried telling me Jack Buck originally started the "hey hey" call, and I told him hes out of his damn mind, Brickhouse did. Somebody please confirm for me that I am right.

Puke. Meche's contract is discusting, Ill pass. The Cubs have plenty of 2-4 starters, the addition of another dominant number 1 starter would put the Cubs over the top.

Exactly there is nobody dominant enough in our system that is untradeable. If a combination of our guys can bring in 1 dominant guy, then do it. By the way, welcome to the forum!

I guess Im well past the "its Jim Edmonds" stage. The guy has contributed pretty damn good as a Cub. Add in the fact that it burns the hell out of Cardinal fans, Im actually beginning to like Jimmy(not like that, not that there is anything wrong with that). If you read gatewayredbirds right now, its pretty damn comical. Seriously, check this out in one of the Edmonds threads there. Its pure comedy over there regarding Edmonds right now, and I love it.

Absolutely! Our team as we stand right now, really has no use on the field for our prospects, so we might as well use them to get a star pitcher. Before I get jumped on for saying that, let me explain. Our LF is locked up for 6 more years. Our RF is locked up for 3 more years. Our 3rd basemen is locked up for 3 or 4 more years. Our 2nd basemen is locked up for 2 more years. Our 1st baseman is locked up for 2 or 3 more years. Our Ace pitcher is locked up for 5 more years. Our #2 or 3(lilly) is locked up for 2 more years. So that leaves SS which is currently being manned by a guy tearing it up. While I have been a big Cedeno guy, what Theriot has done so far is pretty amazing. Can he keep it up? Who knows, but IF he can produce hes under our control for a couple more years. Our starting catcher is a rookie, and is under our control for awhile longer. So that leaves CF, the rotation, and the BP as possible spots for our "prospects". Ill basically ignore the bullpen as its not usually filled with guys who are labled as prospects that we'd be giving up in a deal. So that leaves the rotation and CF. If Demp continues pitching this well, or even if he slips up a bit, hes shown the ability to be an average to above average starter. Id be willing to bet Ryan would give the Cubs a pretty good discount to come back to the Cubs after this year. That leaves 2 holes in the rotation, unless we are able to re-sign the pitcher we traded the prospects for. So that leaves 1 spot in the rotation. Id be willing to bet we could fill this slot with somebody still within the organization, or with a guy coming back from injury. So that leaves CF. We could either sign a free agent, or move somebody within our organization there. So once again, yes mortgage the future now!

Maybe they turned their attention to DeRosa to see if he could win the game. After Soto's AB the following hitter didn't really matter. I dunno, I'm spitballing. Yea I dont know I just found it odd, and the only reason I could think of was because it was Edmonds.

Ok somebody tell me why the fans at the game yesterday didnt give Edmonds a curtain call? Seriously, I know he was a Cardinal, but get over it, the guy just hit a game tieing HR in the bottom of the 9th. Give the guy a curtain call, hell they gave Soto one the night before and his HR wasnt near as big as Edmonds was.

Just thought Id update the Post Pujols/Waino era for you.... 1-1

JIM is my mother effin homeboy wowoowwowowoow

Thank God the black and white is done

Ok, if we are going to lose today, can we just get blown out early so I can go to bed?

When did Lilly start pitching?

Im not in Chicago and this picture looks nothing like the WGN I see on a daily basis.

You all are insane. For two innings that is pretty neat. Deal with it. I think we could all handle the black and white but the camera angles show you nothing. You really have no idea whats happening in the game

Im watching the game and have about as good as idea as you as to what the hell is going on in this game.

Definately wont be any bitching about balls and strikes from any of us till after the 2nd inning.

Might as well turn on Pat and Ron, Ill have about the same idea of whats going on in the game
