QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 03:32 PM) He's been pretty decent hitting there...better than anyone else that's been in that spot yet. He's hitting .222 there with a .559 OPS. Even when Gordon was sucking real bad, his OPS was still around .600.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 03:30 PM) 2-0 bunting. I don't like. It was Omar Vizquel hitting... This Teahen injury sucks, Vizquel's hitting in a spot he has no business hitting in. I really wish we had a manager who actually knows how to put out a good lineup.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Jun 4, 2010 -> 09:38 PM) These could be the least exciting cub sox series ever. Ronny Paulion was 0-7 but he hada 4.03 ERA. That dude's got one hell of a fastball.

There's a game I'd really like to see. Can't wait to see this guy pitch Tuesday.

Did that dude get fired?

Happy birthday!

Where have you been all this time...?

I think Stone just took a dig at Hawk. Hawk: "Carlos came up with the bases loaded and hit a taper back at Masterson". Stone: "But it was a hard tapper" lol

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 3, 2010 -> 05:16 PM) Strasburg's final AAA start line: 5 IP, 3 H, 0 ER, 1 BB, 5 K. Strasburg's minor league totals: 7-2, 1.30 ERA, 55 1.3 IP, 31 H, 14 R, 8 ER, 1 HR, 7 BB, 38 K, 1.90 GO/AO, .154 BAA. Tuesday shall be fun. He had a 1.46 FIP down there too.

Ugh, Jenks is gonna be in.

We're not at the point where pitch f/x or Questech should be umpiring the game. We just need some more extended instant replay options that can prevent huge errors like last night's.

I wonder what Hawk has to say about this. After all, he's the one always b****ing about umpires, but then always says no to any kind of replay. Hawk's entire life is an oxymoron.

It's happened to the Rays twice in a year, and they're one of the best hitting teams in baseball. I doubt you can put the "stupid hitter" argument there. It's flat out luck in those two cases. The last two have been against the Indians and Marlins. Those do make sense from the "stupid hitter" perspective, especially the one last night.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 2, 2010 -> 07:55 PM) I truly believe that's the last straw for not having instant replay. Should be known as the Galarraga Rule. I really hope so.

Can you miss a call that obvious? Wow.

QUOTE (La Marr Hoyt HOF @ Jun 2, 2010 -> 12:58 PM) The guy is a cancer and curse sent from the northside to haunt our franchise, boot him back to the Cubs Lawl....

You need to take about, um, 79 years off there. Thanks.

Mike Lowell sucks just as much as Teahen on defense at his age. Hell no.

Was it over when Houston was 15-30? NO.... It's probably over though.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 1, 2010 -> 08:39 PM) What were you looking for Mark? Not that pitch.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 1, 2010 -> 08:38 PM) I don't think it's been that bad this year. Usain Bolt wouldn't have scored on that play. It's been better, but still bad. After watching the Rays, this team feels like it's filled with 40 year olds.

If the Cubs were 4-4 against the Pirates, they'd be in pretty good shape.

I hate the fact that our still team can't score from second.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 1, 2010 -> 08:34 PM) Nice double. AJ makes it look so easy sometimes. Makes you wonder how he got off to such a .220ish start. By swinging at everything.

Alex missed that one.
