QUOTE(chisox2334 @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 03:25 PM) Everyone can complain all they want him gone but hes staying so deal with it. Im dealing with it by complaining. So you deal with that.

QUOTE(Antonio Osuna @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 02:55 PM) Hey, I'm just repeating what Farmer told me. thats your first mistake

QUOTE(Antonio Osuna @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 02:54 PM) The Cubs, sadly, are a contending team now. And they're about to get a ton better as people get off the DL. and all I can think is Who Gives a Flying F*ck?

But it is not last season. It is this season. And this season, I am worried about who we are playing tonite, which is the Rockies. Right now I want a sweep of the Rockies.

QUOTE(longshot7 @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 02:32 PM) He's right about this tho - bring back the balanced schedule!!! and eliminate those arbitrary division designations too.... the top 4 teams in the league should be in the playoffs - having a weak division leader weakens the playoffs. so you want a balanced schedule and to eliminate all divisions(basically). Your handle describes the situation perfectly. A longshot.

QUOTE(Antonio Osuna @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 02:13 PM) When Timo Perez puts the glove up, you know he's going to make the catch. Consider Timo vindicated! When he gets the glove up, it is caught! Fantastic! Wait a second, what about when he muffed those plays at first. His glove was up, yet he didnt catch it.....very strange indeed.

QUOTE(TheBigHurt @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 01:56 PM) Even though the opposition here is overwhelming, I agree. Timo hasn't been in very many games this year, but those he has been in he's played well. How anyone can insult him an call him a bad player is beyond my comprehension. I've seen good stuff from him considering how little time he's gotten in. quick, give me an example of said "good stuff" without including his game-winner on Memorial day.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 11:39 AM) Though this was funny, I believe Tony the Tiger's got 3 PH homers this year. He had one last night and the guys on Baseball Tonight mentioned that stat...the guy probably heard it there and used it to sound like he knew something. I knew he hit a PH homerun last night too. I still wouldnt use Clark as my ideal PH in an argument. Lenny Harris (pre-cubs) was a good one. I always liked Warren Newsome(Newson?) too.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 11:27 AM) That makes sense. Lets not get a guy who can actually hit to play third because he smirks. While Joe and his dopey expression popsup over and over and over and over and over and hits 230. why in the hell would you want to be rational about this,SS71?

QUOTE(robin_ventura_eternal @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 11:22 AM) who wants randa?? i remember when he was w/ KC, that smirk all the time on his face. for this reason alone he should never be considered to be traded for or brought in. That smirk is permanent. thats why they nickname him the joker, its just the way he looks.

I dont care if Carl says the schedule is favored or not. They all play 162 games. The AL plays roughly 90 percent of the same teams, as does the NL. Dont worry about who the Twins and Yankees are playing, worry about winning your own games and all will fall into place.

Dye doesnt need to be benched for a while, his bat is alive right now.

QUOTE(chisox2334 @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 09:07 AM) Sorry if hes not tony clark geez people its not like hes out there everyday. you are saying this like being Tony Clark is a good thing.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jun 7, 2005 -> 02:56 PM) I'll have your stats and eat them too... Back in the early part of the year, ESPN took a look at a few of these categories in their "Hot stove heaters" feature. Some of the things they looked at were most pitches per at bat, fewest strikes taken as called strikes, etc. Uribe appears on none of them. So he's somewhere lost in the pack. A.J. and Dye get their names on a couple of the lists, if you're interested. I bet DJ fed me that stat.

I now appreciate Chris Berman that much more.

i think one of the ESPN broadcasts brought that stat up. I wouldnt even know where to find a stat like that.

QUOTE(DABearSoX @ Jun 7, 2005 -> 01:31 PM) Havent herd that before.....seriosuly Uribe needs to slow the f*** down and look at a few pitches Doesnt Uribe lead the league in the strangest stat ever, most pitches seen per at-bat? I think he averages an obscene number of pitches every at-bat. The only problem is that he is swinging at most of them...

Im going to guess Contreras goes 8 strong innings with 3 or fewer runs. I think he will dominate tonite.

QUOTE(Finkelstein @ Jun 7, 2005 -> 08:25 AM) If we win today, I predict Timo gets the ball in game 3. LOL. I heard he featured a nasty curveball in Japan. When he wasnt playing first base.

QUOTE(kman @ Jun 7, 2005 -> 08:29 AM) yes hopefuly b.k kim will get lit up today, but our hitters seem to be dominated by unfamiliar faces. Didnt the Sox face Kim once or twice when he was in the Boston rotation?

i wouldnt mind Howry. He seems to have his velocity back.

Nice of Comcast to send out the broadcast with a Cubs exit line.

Shingo is learning the importance of fastball location this year. Noone really knew what to expect from him last year except a whole bunch of junk. Now that the book is out on him, he is having to figure out how to use his fastball to set up his junk. It is almost hurting his offspeed pitches though, because he isnt throwing them as much, and he isnt having the good location because of it. I think he is starting to get it though. He needs a couple more outings like the one he had tonite, sans the leadoff walk.

Man, Tadahito is really lost out there with the bat tonite. He must be homer happy right now, and trying to pick up a quick few at Coors.
