I don't think it's a "big" deal, but it's definitely something worth talking about. Either way, it was pretty stupid to have Albert, who is arguably the best hitter in baseball, just standing there watching with the game on the line when he could've pinch hit and potentially won the game for the NL.

Are you positive? That sucks, I was looking forward to sitting in the seats pictured.

I have a pair of tickets to a game in a couple months in section 33, seats 1 and 2. My question is, are seats 1 and 2 the ones shown in the picture below or are they at the opposite end? Where do the numbers begin? http://www.seatdata.com/images/mlb_cubs/1024x768/33.jpg

Sing, idiot!

What's with this music they're playing in the background? It sounds... epic.

How/why is this coming out four years later? I'm calling BS.

I was wondering who the hell that guy was, and why he kept appearing on my TV.

Are you serious? Yeah, let me read the entire 8 page thread. Or you could just type a paragraph. That's comparable. I don't even remember what this was about to begin with, but it's all semantics at this point, which is stupid. Is Jacque Jones the long term solution in CF? No, clearly not. However, when the person who appears to be the long term CFer has been miserable at the plate lately, you're damn right that Jones should be given another look. This isn't a rebuilding year, we're obviously contenders. With our other holes in the lineup, we can't afford to keep running Pie out there everyday when he can't manage to get on base. That's not how you win.

Prince Fielder, for sure. Without him the Brewers wouldn't be anywhere near the top of the NL Central.

I'm reluctantly starting to agree. Jacque is solid against RHP, no matter whether people want to admit it or not. 3-8 with 3 doubles in his last two starts. No reason to start Pie at this point. Well, he went 3/8 in his last 2 starts? That's it, you've convinced me - Jacques is great against RHP and should start in CF from now on. All the thought and analysis I put into this question over the first 5 pages didn't take into account his last 8 ABs...and clearly, that's all that matters. You don't have to take an hour and analyze the numbers for everything. Jacque has hit the ball very well in his last two starts. Pie has sucked for a few weeks. If there was a righty starting today, why would you NOT start Jacque? Have you read this thread? b/c I'm not going to retype or cut & paste the posts (mine and others). I'm not going to search through 8 pages to find your reasoning for not wanting to go with the hot hand over the guy who has been awful for several weeks. Well, glad you're part of the discussion. Always nice to have people contribute that can't be bothered to read others' posts. Rather than taking the time to twice tell me that you're not going to re-type your reasoning that you came up with who knows how many posts ago, I imagine that you could've simply stated your reasoning in the same amount of time. But whatever, if it's too bothersome to formulate a response of more than two sentences, then that's your problem.

Is there a site that allows you to view the standings from a certain day? Retrosheet or Baseball Reference Baseball reference does? How do you get there? Go to a team's schedule, then click on the date. Nice, thanks!

WTF, it was just a one run game! Thanks, Howry!

110 pitches and Zambrano is staying in??

Mark DeRosa is so awesome.

Is your sig an actual quote or a joke? It's a joke either way, but did he really say that? Yeah, he said it in a radio interview on ESPN 1000 a few weeks back. Did he pronounce it OFFensive offENsive? If it was the latter, he'd be right.

Wah. Mommy, make the big bad bullies stop moving my posts. :cry: :roll: Wow, how mature of you! If you want to move/add/delete posts go for it. If that's really what you want to be doing at 2 in the morning, good for you. Seriously though, I think it's silly, but whatever. No big deal.

I don't want to say this is a must win, but we really need to win this game. We're facing the freakin Pirates. Come on. Let's keep the momentum going as we head into the All Star Break.

28 innings. 3 runs on 18 hits. 40 strikeouts vs. 10 walks. 0.96 ERA. Seriously, could this guy be any filthier? Edit: Yeah, even though I started a new thread, let's go ahead and add my post into a week old thread. Can't have more than one topic on a current Cubs player!

Wow, Raisin out to a HUGE lead (24-7)!
