Dude, You don't pay enough attention to the numbers. Remember Prior's last start?! Over 100 pitch count and had a NO- HITTER when he left! He has that kind of...
You know, It's amazing to me that, from this list, that I've heard nothing all year but PLAY THE KIDS! Now, we HAVE to keep Rich Hill in the rotation and bring...
"playing" the kids and "depending" on the kids are two different things. I would hate to see them burn out early. Thankfully we have really deep middle...
I have been wondering lately if the the Twins will have the last laugh on taking Joe Mauer ahead of prior. I know we are not laughing now..... LOL Conj ... ...
Good........so he can field. His OBP is a lousy career .295. Ronny Cedeno's is a horrible .250. Assuming Pierre comes back next year (of course, only if his...
OK, Todd, you got me on Ohman. But Prior STILL hasn't proven a thing as a Cub! He's crappy this year, and his "no hitter" went into the 6th inning. Not ven...
Yes, play the kids, but you still need GREAT pitching to win. Whose left that is a proven pitcher with this club? Zambrano? That's it? What do we do for...
hi Tom and all: Well, I just left my dad's house where we got done with our annual, "What do we need to do next year to be in the playoff hunt?" discussion. I...
I am big on the acquisition of Carlos Lee idea, and if Jones does halfway decent and Pierre maintains his progress we are pretty good in the outfield. I like...
OK, But let's give Hendry the benefit of the doubt here. A GM's life is HARD. If EVERY move he makes is Golden, then he can do no wrong. For Hendry, that was...
Well Tom, I don't want to "get" anyone on anything. I just want us to look at the facts. I think you're wrong in the fact that Prior hasn't "proven" anything ...
You know- I have actually not seen Prior enough to see if there are any changes. I do remember he had legs (especially his thighs) that looked like a...
Yeah Geo, I think it was MUCH deeper than people thought. Or wanted to believe. Me included. Hill looking GOOD tonight. :-) -iTodd ... [Non-text portions of...
We will have to disagree on this one Tommy. He is as smoothe defensively as there is and while his obp may not be great I do like his approach at the plate....
I am for leaving Barrett back there, because we can not lose the bat and I don't think we can afford him in the OF either. As for pitchers, I do not know if I...
Hi, I agree with the Barret thing as you do. I said awhile back that Damian Miller was a helluva catcher for us and worked splendidly with Wood, Clement, Z...
hi, WOW, this is the first I have heard of prior being on the "stuff", but maybe you r right....Now that I think of it, he does look smaller doesn't he? I have...
Miller was a good D catcher, but its hard to replace Barretts bat. Miller and Bako were both automatic outs for us. I can't count the times the cubs would load...
Rich Hill finally carried his pitching success from the minors to the majors. Hill tossed eight solid innings for his first major league win and Aramis Ramirez...
I didn't think the ridiculous charges leveled here against Prior deserved a reply and I am shocked anyone is taking it seriously. Geez, show me some proof here...
Jim you need to relax some here man. This is a DISCUSSION board, and we are trying to figure out what is to blame for the dramatic decline in Prior’s ...
Hi Jim, I am not leveling charges or accusing: All I am saying is, if we find out later...that he did...this would be my reaction. I believed Palmiero too,...
I can not agree on Cedeno. After watching almost every game this year, I don't believe he has any natural instinct for the game. He has made too many stupid...
I will disagree with your disagreement. Has he made stupid mistakes? Yep. Guess what? Rookies do that. Ronnie has been Cedeno's biggest cheerleader. He is...
Chicago Cubs righthander Carlos Zambrano on Wednesday was named the National League Pitcher of the Month for July. Zambrano won each of his six starts in July,...
I concur with Geo on this one. We are not indicting the man, but rather throwing a possibility out there. Nat _____ From: DiehardCubsFans@yahoogroups.com ...
Exactly. Since I am the one that brought it up, I'll reinforce the fact that my comments are truly speculation. Based on what I have seen of his performance...
