You know what, you've got an excellent point on the offense. It WAS worse last season, we were 11th in the NL in runs last year and 10th so far...
An untrue statement if I ever heard one. Most "absolute" statements are. Pitching is king in baseball in the playoffs for sure, but offense is...
293 points for PSJ? Are you freakin kidding me? I'm glad I only started 2 SPs...
You can have a good defense without a great shotblocker like Hakeem, if the rest of the guys play good team defense. On the other hand, I don't...
The only difference? What about the fact that a SS might make half a dozen defensive plays all game, whereas a defender in basketball is playing...
I never said they would. I said that the fact that Bidge gets to fewer balls than the average 2B leaves more balls for Everett to scoop up,...
leroy touched upon the point that I was going to make, which is that Everett's production is somewhat skewed by the fact that Biggio's range is...
Nice work. They absolutely needed to close the deal on keeping Roy O, and they stepped up and got it done. Not a bad price either.
At this point, I'd rather have Jose Canseco pitching for my team than Brad Lidge. Seriously.
For the record, Wagner has a 2.44 ERA and a 1.10 WHIP. Isringhausen has a 3.08 ERA and a 1.37 WHIP. Clemens has been awesome this season, 2.71...
He pulled a Munson there.
Wheeler, Borkowski, and Springer aren't exactly dominating pitchers, but all 3 have ERAs 2 runs better than Lidge this season. I'd turn to Qualls...
Nice play by Burke on that ground ball. I don't know if Biggio makes that play with his arm.
5 batters - 3 hits, 1 home run. Lidge sucks, plain and simple, and not just in non-save situations. I have no faith in this guy, and he appears...
Lights on.
Palmeiro!
Big hit by AE. Wheels are coming off for the Cubbies.
Attempted to set a lineup for this week but none posted - here's what I'd submitted earlier. 1B-Hafner,Travis, CLE 2B-Roberts,Brian, BAL...
I guess you can spin the results that way. But Haren's performance this season is very similar to his performance last season, and Contreras has...
Adding another thought in a shameless attempt to show my sig twice - of the 4 teams that Fade called out for lack of pitching to start the season,...
