  1. Of course it does. Not only did LA get Maddux but they also dumped salary. Jeez our GM is TERRIBLE. WHy in the world would we want Izturis here? He brings nothing to the table as far as I'm concerned.
  2. There's a reason why Hendry is the worst GM in baseball.
  3. This entire team is a mess and with Hendry and Baker here I see no end in sight.
  4. Baker is an idiot but we all knew that. His speeches are getting redundant and frankly I'm sick of him and them.
  5. Haha, our pitching sucks, actually our entire team sucks..
  6. Izturis sucks but we all knew that, too bad Baker and Hendry don't have a damn clue.
  7. It's not just mental. His pitches are not as good as they used to be.
  8. SO finally the staff realizes that there might be something wrong with Prior? Wow, all of these guys should be fired immediately.
  9. The truth is as of now Prior doesn't have the same stuff as he did in 2003. That's a fact. Will he ever regain his form is the bigger question. IMO, Wood and Miller will not and at this point I'm starting to think Prior might be on the same boat.
  10. I put Izturis under the Neifi category, that should say it all. You mean he's going to save us! Of course! Nobody can catch the ball as good as Izturis can.
  11. I voted for the Beatles but both are damn good.
  12. Somehow I'm wishing he gets locked up and can't manage the cubs anymore.
  13. I put Izturis under the Neifi category, that should say it all.
  14. All the more reason for this fool to be kicked to the curb. I can't stand him.
  15. Is it too early to move him to AA?
  16. That sounds right. Sluggin for the cubs this year is .390 for the Padres is .350. Walker wasn't that great for us this year power wise.
  17. let's see...he is hitting 88 on the gun, he used to 93-94 for the whole game. this has been happening for a while. his pitch counts are astronomical because he has no command...that's been going on since last june. i haven't done the research yet but i know his era is over 5.00 since last june...this is a large sample size and he shows absolutely no signs of anything changing! much like i said with wood last offfseason..we need to find someone to take him at cost for anything...a dozen balls.and indy player...assistant trainer..anything- cut our losses and use the 5-6 mil to add to the savings from wood/maddux and sign at least 2 starters! i like prior..i hope he does great BUT if we want to win next year we can not sit back and hope he becomes prior again. if we wait to find out if he won't , no one will ever take him unless we pay his salary, which does us no good. Actually, trading him for an assitant trainer is a great idea. I can't remember the last time this organization properly diagnosed somebody.
  18. I hate Neifi..
  19. Absolutely no control caused most of his problems, and the pretty bad defense behind him extended innings that exacerbated the problems. His main problem was that he couldn't get the fastball over the plate but it was drifting up and in consistently. That wasn't it come on, let's be serious for a moment. Prior's problems are more than just control. His fastball and curve are not the same pitches that he used to throw. His curve doesn't have that snap on it and his fastball isn't consistent in the 92-94 range that it used to be. He's done for.
  20. We might have something in Theriot but we will never know as long as Baker is the manager of this team. He doesn't like to play those annoying rookies.
  21. Thanks, I've been saying that for a while now. Hendry and co are terrible.
