  1. Is he the real deal?
  2. Pierre lucky that wasn't an out. The man just cannot get runners to home plate.
  3. With Hendry and Baker here this organization is only going to get worse.
  4. Who knows how accurate that is but let's not fool ourselves, the Cubs make more than a 10mil profit per year even with a 100mil payroll.
  5. He's not good because he has no control, which is exactly what I posted above. True, but you also claim that with better control, he would be a filthy closer. If I had more control and could throw in the mid 90's, I could be a closer too. Alas, I'm just not that good. I'm entitled to my opinion and I do believe that if he had control he would be.
  6. He's not good because he has no control, which is exactly what I posted above.
  7. Wow, from the Cubs (a pathetic team) to Florida (young but bad right now) to KC (well, just a lost cause). It really is a shame. Welly has some nasty pitches but he just can't control it. If he were to ever gain some control he would be a filthy closer.
  8. I don't know if it was posted but Wellemeyer has been picked up by KC.
  9. Juan Pierre sucks, next question.
  10. The problem is management should have had those plans for this year but they keep counting on injury prone players to save us.
  11. I think Calero has potential to be really good too.
  12. Costa Rica didn't look good at all against Germany today. Poland wasn't good either. I can't wait to see the games tomorrow.
  13. Why would they do it now when he has posted a .322/.389/.452/.841 line so far this season? It was posted he was hitting .207?
  14. So the fact that Mulder is a proven playoff ace doesn't mean anything? No, because that's not true. Mulder in the playoffs: 7 GS 2.34 ERA You forgot his overwhelming 1.39 WHIP, and the fact that it's seven outings. Or if you're adventurous enough you could point out that even with his lucky ERA he's 3-4 career in the playoffs. But all this is tangent to the point that Jocketty got absolutely hosed in that deal. I think you are right that Jocketty got hosed. He gave up Haren, Calero and Barton for Mulder. As got the better end of that one. Hudson was traded for Meyer, Charles Thomas and Juan Cruz so I think Atl got the best of that one even though Hudson hasn't been exactly lights-out (still good though at 3.52 and 3.93)
  15. How long until the Cubs give up on him and release him?
  16. So the fact that Mulder is a proven playoff ace doesn't mean anything? I just checked his stats from last year's playoff run and he had a 2.45 era in the playoffs last year. That's very good so you have a point there. This year he has been very bad.
  17. From what Len said it looks like Marmol to the rotation, but I wont be surprised to see Rusch benched yet again so it's possible both to the rotation.
  18. Both Mulder and Hudson have been dissappointing for their respective teams since the trade. Haren has been pretty damn good for the As.
  19. I'm guessing Marmol gets the shot at starting, and Guzman is long man...just a hunch. I do believe Len mentioned the same thing earlier today too.
  20. Nevin is already in the Dusty doghouse.
