    Hahaha, what was that?!
  2. Mizzou
    Nice stop there.
  3. Mizzou
    Damn, there are a lot of Bears fans at the game.
  4. Mizzou
    Well, you can't let that happen. Stupid Rams.
  5. Mizzou
    Wow, what a stat. Grossman has more turnovers himself than 12 other teams. That's unreal.

    Natural centerfielder or no, Wilson was far worse than Adam Dunn in left field last year according to Chris Dial's metric. Chris Dial must have been drunk when he posted those numbers. Seriously. Living in St. Louis, I saw Wilson play often. There's no way in hell that he was worse than Dunn last year. No way.

    Half a shot? Never heard of anyone ever doing that.
  8. Mizzou
    I must've missed the part where Hendry actually said that.
  9. Mizzou
    Something that you won't find in the stat books is Marquis' likely desire to stick it to the Cardinals. After taking two huge ones for the team, and then being left off the postseason roster, I'd imagine the two sides didn't part on good terms.
  10. Mizzou
    Yeah, I looked at a few and the only one that had the date was the Cubs (Feb. 23rd). I was just wondering if anyone had heard of any others.
  11. Mizzou
    Not just Cubs tickets, but any team. I'm thinking about which stadium I want to visit this year. Does anyone know when tickets go on sale for various teams?
  12. Mizzou
    You drank too many rum and cokes last night too?
  13. Mizzou
    It's very confusing. What happens if Prior is healthy in ST? Who gets bumped out of the rotation? I wonder if Hendry is planning on trading Hill in a package for a big bat. He's the only guy that isn't being paid starter money (aside from Miller, who was basically gauranteed to start), and we already have another left in Ted Lilly.
  14. Mizzou
    No, I definitely agree that that's the best way to look at it. I just didn't feel like looking to see when exactly he should have been pulled. What I was basically trying to say was that Marquis had (at least) two outtings last year where he would've been pulled in normal circumstances, but wasn't. Therefore he wasn't as bad as he ERA makes him out to be.
  15. Mizzou
    And where exactly did it say that?
  16. Mizzou
    His ERA, minus 2 awful performances, would be 5.12 unless I did the math wrong EDIT I did the math wrong the first time, answer is right now Not directed towards you Rocket, but I've never understood this concept. If you take away his real bad performances and chalk them up to he had a bad day, what happens with a real good performance? Honestly, could someone take away his 3 outing where he allowed 2 ER thru 24IP and then try and formulate something from it? 6.76 for those scoring at home. Well, my point was that he wouldn't have given up that many runs in normal circumstances, so the ERA isn't really reflective of his season. The Cardinals had no choice but to leave Marquis in there against the White Sox that day (and against Atlanta, I'm assuming). He took one for the team big time.
  17. Mizzou
    Very interesting, I hadn't thought of that. I personally will be pretty pissed off if they do. Thanks for computing that, Rocket. While that's still bad, if you take out the two obvious anomalies, he wasn't nowhere near as bad as he seems on the surface.
  18. Mizzou
    Can someone compute Marquis ERA if you take out his two awful permformances where he gave up 13 runs to the White Sox and 12 runs to the Braves? I know that he had to stay in against the Sox, cause the Cards gave up 20 something runs the night before and the bullpen was taxed. And I'm assuming it was a similar situation agasinst the Braves. I truly think that Marquis can turn it around with the Cubs. He wasn't as bad last year as his ERA indicates. Like I've said before, I think it's stupid to sign another starter, but I'm glad that Marquis was the starter that was signed. And his deal, in this market, isn't bad at all.
  19. Mizzou
    Based on absolutely nothing but mere observation... I'd say Gooz, Marmol, Marshall. I'm not high on Marshall at all.
  20. Mizzou
    Really? Berroa and LaRue are black holes, Grudz isn't any good, Sweeney's coming off a subpar half season, Brown's a platoon player, and Gordon doesn't have a single MLB at bat. It's not a lock to be terrible, but it's nothing admirable really. Grudz isn't any good? Over the past four years, his worst average was .294. Saying he isn't any good is completely ridiculous.
  21. Mizzou
    So another report of this three year 28M crap contract? Overall, I think Hendry's had a solid offseason... however, if he signs crap-ass Jason Marquis to that kind of deal, I'll jump all over the fire Hendry bandwagon, for the first time. That said, I'd be shocked if it happens. I see the Cubs signing Marquis for a one year deal for about 3-5M, with a second year team option. I'm completely opposed to signing another starter, but if we're going to sign one then I hope it's Marquis... for a low base.
  22. Mizzou
    Who is that in your sig picture?
  23. Mizzou
    Thanks God, now we can end all of this "Bonds to the Cubs" talk.
  24. Mizzou
    The Royals spent, what, 16 million dollars on two players today? What the hell is going on?
  25. Mizzou
    http://www.mlb-rumors.blogspot.com/ that's ridiculous. i don't even know if he deserves a guaranteed contract. As I mentioned earlier in this thread, I'm all for signing him. I think he'd be a great gamble. But any GM who gives him that kind of contract is just... well, I don't even know what to call it.
