  1. He had one right in his wheel house. It's good to take pitches, but it's not good to take strikes. Bull plop. When someone is as wild as Leiter, you take a strike. Agree 100%. He walked to batters in row, forcing in a run. then gives up a two run single. Make him work!!
  2. Pathetic attempt. He doesn't look comfy doing that.
  3. Hey, I just noticed on that last foul ball by JHJ that there's nobody in the stands down the left field line. Is that section closed? Construction? Painting?
  4. I agree And struck out to open the game, just like JHJ!
  5. Maddux 14 away from #3,000. Should happen in about 3 starts!!!
  6. I think the fair answer is that Burnitz has been an everday player his entire career so he's used to facing lefties. Also, I think the word coming from the GM is that Murton will get the bulk of the playing time (or at least a chance to prove himself or trade value) so, as Dusty said, if Holla didnt get a start today he may not get one for well over a week. Doesn't Burnie have pretty good numbers in his career against lefties, or at least recently against lefties?
  7. 6,000 showed up for the game? What promotion was going on - hat night, bobble head dolls? That seems awfully high for a Marlins home game.
  8. My, but we're impatient tonight. What happened to your hot date, anyway ?? :wink: When the wife found out, it all went to the crapper!
  9. Where's the useless stats?!?!?!? They're usually up by now!
  10. I think it went that way more because of Bartman's actions than the slimeball asking him questions.
  11. But isn't there a psychological aspect involved as far as the game goes. I mean, the Iowa Cubs will still try to be winning games, right? So won't his approach to his ABs change depending on where he bats or the game situation? Wouldn't it make sense to bat him with Iowa where he is anticipated to bat back with the big league club? Maybe I'm reading too much into it.

  13. Speaking of this, does anyone really dislike the blue tops, whether it's home or away. I hate them!
  14. The way he's pitching, that would be too bad!
  15. Fred - where do you get these stats, or do you make them up. Cuz I love 'em if they're real!
  16. I don't know. Jack was pretty weak last night running iterference late in the game when one of the Marlins was called out on a check swing. He didn't even say anything to the ump. He walked out, put his arm around the batter and walked him back to the dugout. It was pretty pathetic.
  17. Thanks! I don't generally scroll down that fr. Pretty much stick to the baseball forums. Duly noted for future reference! :)
  18. Any possibility of having this option from the main index in addition to each individual category? Just a thought.
  19. From the article: "Just for the record," he begins, "I wouldn't recommend that you do this again, especially on [company] property, because it's just not a good impression if you want me to do something with you." Take that you slimeball reporter!! ""Steve," I tell him, "I've got one thing before I leave. Regardless of what I do for a living, regardless of the way this all might seem to you, I want to apologize. I want to genuinely apologize, on behalf of all Cub fans, for all the crap you've had to deal with." Don't apologize for me you A-hole!!! I don't put blame in the guy for his actions. You want to apolgize for anyone, apologize for non-Cub fans and the constant media hounding immediately after and ever since Game 6. Most Cub fans I know think the guy did what most everyone else would do and/or cut the guy slack for his unintentional actions. It's NON-Cub fans and the media who are the problem!!! "Sure, there's the occasional reporter who jumps out of a parked car or the SportsCenter anchor who references the infamous fan, but he's moved on. " Maybe everyone else should do the same! PS - Doesn't the reporter's actions hinge on 'stalking'?
  20. He'll be in Arizona until late next week. Then it's off to Iowa. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and say that he'll hit minor league pitching. If this is the case, where will he bat in Iowa? I think it would make sense to hit him 6-8, since that's where he would hit if/when he recalled. Does anyone think he'll hit 3-5 in the minors? And if he did hit 3-5, wouldn't that be conuterproductive to =what the team wants him to do? Thoughts?

  22. I for one love your useless stats! :lol:
