Or just Bourn.
-
How about a sac bunt, an intentional walk to Matsui, pitching change to Marmol, and I-Rod K and then a lazy fly out to CF by Berkman.
-
Now a sac bunt, followed by a sac fly. Sheesh.
-
Pence is pretty damn annoying too? He just looks goofy with everything he does....practice swings, throwing, running off the field.
-
"Bit of a jackass"......NO. COMPLETE JACKASS..........YES!!
-
That was ball 4 Milt!
-
Valverde is a bit of a jackass! Who pitches next for the Cubs IF they don't score....Patton?
-
DANKA!!
-
Ground ball please.
-
Except he rarely puls the ball. And I doubt he can get around on Hawkins fastball.
-
CRUSHED!!!!!

For a team that's wanted to get "more left-handed", they sure have looked piss-poor against left-handed pitching the past few years. They used to crush lefthanders! :banghead:

Cubs keep Patton, Guzman
PackLandVA replied to Bruce Miles's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
My reference to Beane was not really referring to the Cubs and who got the better of the deal. It's really about Beane seeming to know the right time to get/give up players. Gaudin may have been a "throw in" for Beane, but I'll bet it sweetened the pot for Hendry. I still like the trade, but Beane has a good eye for talent (or lack of). -

Billy Beane strikes again!! Must've been a reason he let him go with Harden. -
So do the Cubs pay Gaudin's salary if he's picked up by another team? What if he signs a minor league deal with another team?
-
Might be able to get him really cheap for 3 months. Could a 6-man rotation work for the last half of the season assuming everyone is healthy. And when someone is "experiencing discomfort", fall back to the traditional 5-man. The extra days might help come September and October.

4/4 Cubs (Harden) @ Yankees (Pettitte) 12:05
PackLandVA replied to otis89's topic in Fred Hornkohl Game Thread Forum
You might be thinking of Robert Ransom. He was a pitching prospect, I think out of Vandy (maybe). edit - I just checked and you are correct. The Cubs signed him in 2005 and sold to Texas 2 months later. -
From what I've heard and read, he often throws in the mid to high 90's. Regardless, my point is that he seems to be all arm in his delivery. For a fastball pitcher, that seems to a problem.
-
DLee seemed to get his stroke back the past week and a half. Samardzija needs to be in the minors. Gaudin was brutal and did nothing to make a case for sticking with team. Harden was sporadic but allegedly "pain free". Heilman looks to be a good pick up. Thankfully, Paul Bako is not on the team. Len and Bill sounded good on TV.
-
Amazing how there are sooo many concussions in sports and almost always, the player is able to continue. And yet this guys physiology prevents him from playing. That's too bad for him. He would have been a nice addition to the team later in the season.
-
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush! He may be leaving some money on the table if he's effective for 4 years. But $15 million guaranteed is not too shabby. And prior to this contract, he's an injury away from squat. It's a good move for the player and team.
