I worry more about lee in the 3 hole, then I do Soriano leading off. I love lee, but Hoffpair is the #2 rbi guy in spring. He needs a spot on the field. D ... ...
... I really don't see Fukudome getting on base at that pace this year. His OBP in the second half last year was .314 and I haven't seen anything in either ...
... Couldn't agree more. Theriot and Fontenot seems so obvious as the best 1-2 combination. I think Piniella has to do something else because the best answer...
I agree on Fukodome, but in all fairness, he has been smoking the ball the last three days, and was getting walks when he was not. It would be a huge, awesome...
At this point, anything above .270 from Fukudome is upside as far as I'm concerned... and having Reed Johnson ready to play everyday if Kosuke can't figure it...
I guess my point is this... I was perhaps the last one to get off the Fukudome bandwagon last year. I will not be the first one to get back on it. ... ...
I like everything about Fukudome...except for his inability to hit fastballs down the middle of the plate. He does everything right...he plays exceptional...
... I think this, since Fukudome could have been considered as a rookie last year treat him like one. He started off hot and then cooled (frozen solid...
Shut up? Cant! Llove my Cubs, and the season is about to start! D ... From: S To: cubscoven@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, April 01, 2009 12:44 PM Subject:...
First... don't ever tell me or anyone else on this site to shut up. This isn't myspace. Second, feel free to think of Fukudome however you want... he's not a ...
and fourth, show me another rookie with a 4 year/$40M contact. Obviously the Cubs don't view him that way either. ... [Non-text portions of this message have...
Or the other teams who bid against the Cubs. He is not a rookie, and if anyone asked me, guys like him would not be eligible for ROY. Which makes me wonder. ...
... Never been on myspace don't have time for it...guess you do. I know Fukudome's history and now everyone knows you know it too. (Clap, clap, Clap). I am...
I would agree that Theriot/Fontenot is the ideal 1-2. I just don't see that happening, because for whatever reason, Fonty hasn't gotten a sniff there, nor any...
I don't think anyone has said they weren't willing to give him the benefit of the doubt or another shot. My point is that he's on a short leash for me. I'm...
I wonder if these Yankee announcers are going to tell us what they think of the new stadium... I've listened to some games on the Yankees radio network and all...
Oh you're in for a treat with those announcers. Get ready to roll the yankeeography every other inning, or god forbid if they have a rain delay and you have to...
I agree with chris. We are paying him a TON of money to be a lackluster hitter with little to no power. We could have spent half as much and got 2 amazing...
They like Jeter a little bit don't they. I think he could run over your dog and these guys would call it one of the most athletic driving maneuvers of all...
Yeh they are annoying as heck, but hey you get to Watch steve stone every night now right, he's with the sox? Or is he only doing the sox wgn broadcasts?...
Don't watch them... can't stand Harrelson. If there was a way to listen to Steve and mute Hawk I'd make the time to watch it. ... [Non-text portions of this...
ohh I thought i was the only one who couldn,t stand Harrelson. He is just so annoying. when my kid watches the Sox(yes he is a fan). I tell him mute that damm...
I honestly haven't met anyone that says they enjoy listening to the guy... and I'm talking about Sox fans too. I heard him on XM last year (Baseball ...
... The amount of money we are paying him right now is irrelevant. It is done. There is nothing we can do about it. Is he overpaid for what he is going to...
... I have to 2nd that statement. I've not met one person that enjoys listening to Hawk calling a game. I also have to agree though that when I've heard him...
... Not true. The money issue was brought up in regards to whether or not Fukudome should be treated like a rookie. I used the contract to point out that the...
Before the season starts and the comments and emotions start, I just want to wish all of you a great 2009 Cubs season. You guys make the season more enjoyable...
