Linebrink? WTF?????? Padres over paid!

I think this weakens the Cubs. Barrett may have had his downfalls but wasn't he a silver slugger?

I said a week and a half ago that I won't wear any Sox garb, unless I am at a game, until they win at least 2 in a row. My hat is lonely on the rack.

Guess our relievers shouldn't or can't go more than 1 inning. Would be nice if Danks could go 6 or 6+ once in awhile.

Cor Von almost kills Punk. Punk vs. Benoit could be a show stealer.

I understand being a heel and using moves like the cravate (i.e. Chris Hero) for the sole purpose of pissing off the fans but even heels know that there are times where they gotta step up their A game and put the restholds to the side except for the times that they are appropriate -- i.e. to rest. I don't think Randy got that memo yet. It's amazing that great heels of the past, Rude-Flair-Perfect-etc, used rest hold of some sort and were still very good. I admit Orton is not that great on the mic, but to knock the guy cuz he uses headlocks just irritates me. Especially when his finisher effects the head. It's ring psychology.

Too bad Gooch can't bunt.

LOL at Hawk

Careful, Shadows. The haters will come out and knock Orton because he uses a headlock in his matches. And nobody in the history of wrestling has ever done that.

I had a weak back about a week back. Bu-dum-dum-CHING!

LOL at our bunting.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 19, 2007 -> 09:22 PM) It's embarrassing watching our relievers, and then seeing the dynamic stuff that Carlos Marmol is throwing up to the plate. OMGZ!!! I NEW IT! YOU CUBZ FAN!!!1!

QUOTE(Shadows @ Jun 19, 2007 -> 09:19 PM) Im loving the avatar friend Your presence made me bring it back!

How is Uribe hitting .211?

Burke sold those Benoit germans nicely. Nice counter to the flying headbutt as well.

QUOTE(Shadows @ Jun 19, 2007 -> 09:04 PM) Im watchin ECW for the first time ever tonight, time to see what its all about I really like Benoit on ECW for some reason. Awesome wrestler who could hold the title for a long time if they put it on him.

Johan with a CG shutout against the Mets with 1 strikeout and it came against La Duca in the 9th. Probably why his pitch count was so low.

Seems we are done scoring? With this bullpen, Danks has to do a better job of keeping his pitch count down.

Was just looking up AAA stats and saw Broadway having a good season. 5-2 with an ERA of 3.21. 33 BB's is way too high obviously, compared to 39 K's. I know a lot of people here know this already but the ERA stands out because isn't Charlotte a small park?

Not sure we should trade the #9 pick, we could draft Jamal Tatum with it, if he is still on the board.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jun 19, 2007 -> 07:53 PM) Hey look it's 2005. We're in first??? Detroit has double digit runs again, and its only the 6th. Yikes!

QUOTE(DonnyDevito @ Jun 19, 2007 -> 07:41 PM) i'll still take Danks over Danny Wright any day. remember how sucky our starting pitching used to be? we went full seasons without a #5. If I had a smiley scratching his head, I would use it.

QUOTE(DonnyDevito @ Jun 19, 2007 -> 07:37 PM) maybe KW was spot on hyping up Fields...he is twice the player Crede is. Give it a year or so.

Crede sitting at home, worried?
