    LMAO at the 2 lineups being thrown out there today for this "battle". Good lord

    I have no [expletive] idea how that ball went out of the park

    Byrd can hit cleanup, but Pena is the better option. As keener pointed out, he had a bad month to open the year and then he went on a tear through most of May. His line over the past 28 days - .263/.406/.487/.893 - has picked his numbers up considerably from the awful start. At the time my post was made, Pena's season wOBA was higher than Byrd's. It's dropped since then to a .339 (Byrd) vs .325 (Pena) difference, but you have to question how well Byrd will bat when he returns from his injury. Add in the fact that Penas overall numbers are being dragged down by having to face leftys. Eliminate his 2-40 vs leftys this year and hes hitting .272/.413/.456/.869. This Cubs team has lots of problems, and Pena isnt one of them.

    So everybody else's WGN went out also?
  5. Keener98
    Why is Colvin in CF and not Fuku?
  6. Keener98
    What is the point of putting Byrd cleanup? He is no more of a power hitter than what ARam has been this year. Also he is on the DL right now anyway Also, Pena was terrible the 1st month of the season, he posted a 919 OPS in May. So to say hes been terrible this season is quite a stretch. 1 bad month 1 good month.

    He looked to grab his left quad as he was running through first base, but I didn't hear the tv announcers mention anything about it. Yea hurt quad. Len and Bob said they will give more details when they have them, but with how things are going, I expect him DL'ed after the game Left quad strain. Off for an MRI. I'm thinking at this point, the only question is will it be Brett Jackson or Tyler Colvin making their way to Wrigley. Was this the same injury he had in 08? Im assuming Colvin comes back up. Had Jackson been healthy it'd probably be him but who knows.

    And the next Cub to go on the DL will now be Soriano. Injury a day for this team right now, my God. Come on up Brett!

    Looks like Jeff Stevens has been DFA'd to make room on the 40 man for DJ. Stevens should clear waivers Id imagine.
  11. Keener98
    He's on rehab. I'm going tomorrow and would much rather see Dempster than Rodrigo Lopez, so rainrainrainhailrainrain please. Soto was activated today http://sports.espn.go.com/chicago/mlb/news/story?id=6605081
  12. Keener98
    Hopefully we have seen the last of Coleman. http://espn.go.com/blog/ChicagoCubs/post/_/id/4500/coleman-bound-for-iowa-to-make-room-for-wells

    And the Bad News Bears are back
  14. Keener98
    And now a pickoff. Great baseball being played by the Cubs today
  15. Keener98
    Lmao Cubs. My God its like the Bad News [expletive] Bears
  16. Keener98
    He's starting today? He wasnt listed in the lineup posted in this thread?
  17. Keener98
    So Montanez comes up and goes 2-4 in his 1st game up, and then doesnt even get a start the next 2 games? No reason at all that Fukudome cant play CF and put Montanez in RF.
  18. Keener98
    Pinch hitting with Z when 3/5s of your starting rotation is on the dl is pretty damn ignorant, I don't care that it worked. Its an unnecessary thing to do right now.
  19. Keener98
    I'm at work can't watch game and reading this thread I thought Bulls were getting blown out, only to see the bulls leading?wtf
  20. Keener98
    A push off? come the [expletive] on
  21. Keener98
    Ya call that traveling, but never on Lebron haha
  22. Keener98
    With Russel starting tonight and basically going with the entire bullpen for tonights game, and the offday tomorrow, an extra pitcher is more valuable today than a reserve bat that probably just sits on the bench. Id suspect come Tuesday Berg to go back down and a position player be added.

    Isn't any radar gun readings at Peoria stadium so I have no clue how hard he was throwing but seems like Jockish IA throwing harder. Simpson looks to have really good movement on his breaking pitch if he can throw it from strikes. Considering all the tine missed he may still be trying to get the feel for it I don't know. The scouting reports I read when Jokisch was drafted had him primarily 86-89. Really? Wow. Hard to tell with no radar obviously but he was definitely more dominant than Simpson tonight. Once he came in he was in total control. And I don't think a runner reached 3rd while he was on the mound
  24. Keener98
    Chiefs win. Clinton did nothing off jockish. He impressed me quite a bit actuallyw
  25. Keener98
    Ya I honestly didn't realize he had 5. Pretty sure most were on his breaking pitch looking. Like I said before when it doesn't bounce in front of hone plate it looks like a pretty good pitch for him. And it's quite possible I missed a few of the K's during the 3 restroom trips in 5 innings my son had to take lol
