  1. It still amazes me that after our 2 wins in basically the last month that we're only 7.5 out.
  2. I'm having fun trying to think of definitions for assinate. We need Edmonds? :lol: Edmonds could ass-inate dusty. If we signed Edmonds I'd just about guarantee that he'd hid .240 and be injured.
  3. Yup. Luis Castillo (Maybe we can trade someone to the Twins cause otherwise I'd think they'd exercise that option) Carlos Lee Maybe think about adding Trot Nixon too. Put Pie in CF and see what he can do. That's what I'd do. Possibly add a starting pitcher depending on what the rest of this season does. We MUST add offense/OBP/Power.
  4. He is saving us you know....saving us from sending up the W flag at the end of the game that is.
  5. I swear he is trying to get fired. Too bad Hendry won't do it. I saw the line up and said. Ok, not bad, walker's fine there, A-Ram hits 4th, Jones 5th :-s...Hairson 6th :-k , Perez 7th #-o , Blanco 8th ](*,) ?? The one nice thing about it is Dusty pretty much lets you know when there is absolutely no reason at all to watch the game....today is one of those days.
  6. At 90 pitches or so he's got to be pulled anyway doesn't he? I mean...its not like he's thrown 90 over 7 and has been in control. 30+ pitch innings by guys his age are not a good idea.
  7. I think its likely an offshoot of our hitting "philosophy"...Camp Dusty hates walks by our hitters and cant understand why the other team would take them either...they tell the staff just to throw it up there because its called hitting not walking and when they don't swing and ground out weakly to 2nd they sit there and look perplexed.
  8. 75 + Pitches and not through 3 innings. That's not good is it?
  9. So 65 pitches and not through the 3rd yet...I'm no expert but that's not good is it? Opps...wrong thread! :oops:
  10. For those gluttons for punishiment, the game is on XM 189...Guzman hit the first batter.
  11. christsakes baker. Hell, why not throw Hank White in there and bat him first.
  12. Neifi's about as quick as Ron Coomer. What do you mean? Those toothpick legs can pick em up and put em down. Those toothpick legs are being relied on to carry a gargantuan cranium about. I'm not kidding, that boy's head's like Sputnik. Sputnik reference :lol: Actually, "So, I Married An Axe Murderer" reference! And an awsome one at that! I'm not kidding...that boy's heed is like a mellon on a toothpick...its spherical, but quite pointy in parts.
  13. This Game thread has to be more interesting than the other one.
  14. Blanco is pinch hitting? What is this world coming to? Seriously...Blanco pitch hits? I guess Theriot is only the late inning defensive replacement spark that we've been needing.
  15. 9, actually that makes me feel much better then...
  16. Did we see like a total of 7 pitches that inning?
  17. FYI, that was an 8 game slide. And the Cubs went from 3 games out to 6.5. And it was 10 of 11. They were 2 games back before then. Yes, they are still within striking distance and nobody has run off with the division yet. But that was some serious damage. There are now 8 teams ahead of them for the wild card. The Cubs have relied too long on the "it's early" claim. Last year they lost 8 straight early, and did it again 2 more times. There's no reason to give up, but I think it's important to remember that these losses all count and hurt. They can't just expect things to get better, they have to proactively make things better. My bad on the 8 game slide...but I think the 10 out of 11 proves my point even more...the fact that we lost 10 of 11 and that only equated to 3.5 in the standings is pretty lucky on our part. Regardless. I completely agree, the only way any of it matters is if we go out and do something to make the offense better, Kerry, Mark, Wade...whoever, cannot pitch enough shutouts to compensate for the offense as it currently stands.
  18. Even though we just got through a 7 game slide....we really lost very little ground in the race for the Central...thank God no one went on a run during that time...still...we've got a TON of issues...but if we could somehow solve them we're still within striking distance.
  19. Wow. Even Dusty should be able to see that split.
  20. If the team needs legal counsel, I offer my services at a reduced rate, and just to save you some more money, I'll be happy to mow the lawn twice a week when necessary as well...I have many skills! :D
  21. Continue to pitch to the man? (Pujols just hit another one a few minutes ago)
  22. Quoted for truth. Its just beyond me why you bring a guy up and let him sit on the bench "sparking" the team. Murton, Cedeno part two? At this rate we will never know!!! Murton and Cedeno should have been starters. Theriot is likely destined to be nothing more than a role player. Even if he is just a role player...this Greek Tragedy needs some new actors.
  23. I was just listening to XM and they asked him about the Bonds near HR. He said "I don't want Bonds to break it against us unless we're up like 15-0 or something...then I wouldn't be mad at him".... HAHAHA...Us actually scoring 15 runs? What a joker. He's got to be great in the clubhouse.
