Sure... we can't know what he was thinking, but it seems most of the content of this group is trying to figure out what they might be thinking. And I agree...
I wasn't denying they were questionable moves...just saying that just because we can't for the life of us figure out what the heck he was thinking doesn't mean...
I don't know why I didn't think about it at the time...but I think bringing Cotts up was simply preparation for the Rockies' plethora of left handed bats. ...
FWIW: 31 ABs, 2 doubls, 1 triple, 1 HR, 5 RBI, .258/.303/.484/.787, good to great defense. Nothing to write home about, but NOT a disaster. Also, Mr. Prior --...
Yes. This makes perfect sense. Another comment made during one of the games was that Lou likes to have LH reliever ready if a RHP starts the game and vice...
I believe LaRussa would have eventually tried this if Ankiel would have maintained his pitching ability. Back and forth, between Ankiel (L) and Marquis (R) ......
I noticed that Reed Johnson replaced Soriano in LF for the 9th inning on Saturday and Sunday. I'm kinda impressed by the way Lou got all indignant when the...
I didn't notice it on Saturday and on Sunday I only noticed because he nearly collided with Rami on that foul ball down the left field line the Theriot almost...
And probably would have been the longest 9 inning game in baseball history.` How would the official scorer determine the winning pitcher in that scenario?! ......
Rami's doing his best to keep Soriano in the lineup. Look at this attempt to put Johnson on the DL! http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/8471/DSC_0425.JPG ... ...
I don't recall Len and Bob mentioning the replacement in either game, but I don't know about Pat & Ron. I kinda think if they had mentioned it, there would be...
http://tinyurl.com/4bdhf8 I hadn't seen this article...apparently Lou was questioned about the move after yesterday's news. As bizarre as it sounds, I think...
I know Baker was brought up in a previous post, but can you imagine if Baker was in this situation? Hell, he would have put Soriano in there late (in a game...
It feels like they're mailing it in tonight. It's like the players assume something will happen, it will all fall in place, and they will win. At some point,...
I thought Barrett had taken Wood deep to tie the game, and I was pissed! Petco at night is probably the only park in the league that holds that ball...so...
Yes, I was scared, too. Another awesome ballgame. Ain't nobody doggin' it on this team. Go Cubs Go! [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
Well, it was in the second inning when I posted. I saw a lot of flailing, a few guys flying/popping out with one-handed swings. I dunno... maybe they are...
And last night was no "routine double switch" either. Theriot made the last out. Cedeno for Theriot would have been the "routine" double switch. It was...
I'll tell you what I saw... I saw a team that continued to grind away all night and scored in 5 of the 9 innings. We scored 7 runs without a big inning....
Just in case Lou read this group... Why bat Fukudome and Edmonds back to back last night? Why not Fukudome, DeRosa, Edmonds so he can split up his lefties? I...
Right on. We just watched this team climb out of an 8-run deficit the other day, and have come from behind on numerous occasions this season. We've been used...
Like DeRosa added, this team expects to win. No matter the score, the locaton, or the opponent. Its also great to see the Edmonds experiment is working so far....
I am starting to thaw a bit on the Edmonds experiment based on the last 2 games. His first 11 were truly horrible, though. I'm still concerned that these 2...
Yeah, he is batting .208. Hot damn! Yeah, he made an error two days ago. Yeah, he let a run socre in the ninth yesterday. Yeah, he is still the same...
Thats fair enough for me, not that my opinion matters. I liked the signing for the possible upside. We are seeing some signs of the upside becoming reality....
Yep, Sean Gallagher tshirts, lol. D ... From: James Hoffa To: cubscoven@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, June 03, 2008 12:45 PM Subject: [Cubs' Coven] I still...
Yeah, I know... I mean, it's not l anyone judged the Edmonds signing after one game or anything. ;) ... Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum viditur [Non-text...
