  1. People want him to start against all righties. Starting him solely against the best of righties and then having the team criticize his play is pretty unfair. Not starting him against righties period is ridiculous. I agree. But that really doesn't have anything to do with my post. How so? Cause I was commenting on people who complain when Lou starts him against tough righties, and then complain when he doesn't start him against tough righties. I thought it seemed pretty straight forward, but maybe not.

  3. People say that Lou only starts Pie against tough righties, thus putting him in positions to fail. Now people bitch when Lou doesn't start him against a tough righty. Come on, at least be consistent.
  4. I think he was in Chicago taking a physical already . I bet he's enjoying that. "Cough twice, Jim." "Can we keep doing that one, doc?"
  5. I really don't understand why Edmonds would even want to come here. He knows how the fans feel about him.
  6. Lou, lou, lou, lou, lou ](*,) He does need to throw more strikes. I don't remember the exact numbers, but in his last start he threw around 90 pitches and around half of them were balls. That's just not acceptable, and you can't expect the Cubs to call him back up after that.
  7. So hit a HR here and then hope for a ton of rain to call the game.
  8. Not a big fan of bunting with a guy hitting .330. Especially against Shawn Estes.
  9. Random, but... Does Pie remind anyone else of Adibisi (sp?) from the HBO show Oz? (appearance wise, not serial killer wise)
  10. I just flipped over to the Cards game to check the score JUST in time to see Cesar Izturis make a great, great diving play. Awesome.
  11. F you Khalil Greene. And F this Edmonds talk.
  12. I really hate it when batter do what DeRosa just did (try to take first). It's a pretty straightforward rule.
  13. Jason Marquis is such a worthless piece of ****.
  14. Which is very possible. But in the grand scheme of things, might be the best case scenario. I'll still be rooting for him to do well though, obviously.
  15. Nobody is welcoming Edmonds with "open arms", it's the simply inevitable that Hendry will sign Edmonds. 99.999999999999999999999 to inifnity% of the Cubs fans would prefer to keep Pie up and not sign Edmonds. But Hendry/Piniella has a man-crush on Edmonds.... Actually, on the Tribune poll a full 39.6% endorse the move. I'm usually not one for conspiracy theories, but... I don't know if I can believe that. 2 out of 5 Cubs fans are for signing him? There's just no way. I would think that the only people who take the time to read the Chicago Tribune's Cubs section are the knowledgeable fans, not the bandwagon types who think the name is a good signing. Even still, I wouldn't think the casual Cubs fans would want a former Cardinal who's far past his prime to be signed. I call BS on that poll.
  16. I love how people keep talking about Edmonds' numbers this year, yet when people were talking about Theriot's hot start a week or two ago it was all about the sample size.
  17. i'll be forced to watch bbtn now When is that show on? Is it on at a regular time each night?
  18. Hahahahahahaha, nice hustle Aramis!
  19. Is Dome still near the top of the league leaders in pitches per plate appearance? Walked him! Man I love that patience!
