I don't think Rivera was part of that trade. I thought it was Nick Johnson, Soriano, Mendoza and Ted Lilly. Instead they traded the left fielder I forget his name (Glenallen Hill?) for Ben Ford. Nice move but the goal is to fill seats not win games. I am glad they didn't make that trade as they would be going after Vlad now. Still either way you can't tell me that you would rather have the one superstar versus all of that talent.

Heck when I joined at the end of March I was #298! That makes 200+ new members in two months!

The sad thing is, a few years back before the Cubs had resigned Sosa, when they were talking about trading him the Yankees made the Cubs a 4 player offer that included Soriano and Ramiro Mendoza among the players. And I was about the only person saying they should of made that trade. They were offerings Soriano, Rivera, Mendoza and one guy who turned out to be a bust, forget who it was. Jackson Melian, thats it. Yeah you aren't alone. If you go back and look at lots of those superstar for the farm system trades after 5 years or so, it is amazing how slanted some of them turn out. The Randy Johnson deal to Houston from Seattle was insane.

We are giving a chance to Borchard right now, there wouldn't have been anywhere for him to play right now anyway.

Koch went 2 innings on Sunday, so he was effectively out, unless it was a save situation. Glover could have been used, as he went just one inning and didn't throw a lot of pitches.

I don't have a problem with it. Just make a separate thread for each day. And don't make more than one thread for each day.

There really wasn't anyone else available in the pen at that point. We burned up our pen the night before with that 12 inning game. White and Sanders were the only guys who didn't pitch in that game.

Hmmm I wonder which is bigger Sammy's Ego or Frank's Ego?

I wish I had a job where I got paid a lot of money to be the boss of a group that didn't do its job, and had no fear of getting fired...

There have been a lot of media rumblings about Manuel needing to get fired. There is more of a public feeling about Williams needing to go.

While I was reading the list of "dangerous" activities all I could think was if you combined all of them you have a typical Chicago cabbie... (I hate them soooo much)

One for each 100!

Well at least there was some offense today... The winner was D'Angelo Jimenez with 10 points. The only picker was Chisoxfn,

Dude WTF is wrong with you?

You find 30 people to play (one for each MLB team) Each player does a blind draw to pick a team, if your team scores 13 runs you win whatever money is in the pot. Every week that there isn't a winner you reante.

How is Brian Cooper doing? He didn't do much for us during the spring and I was wondering if he was turning it around at all.

Trust me I was still on the ESPN board in Spring saying that we needed to release Rick WhiteFlag and keep Matt Ginter on the 25 man roster.

What the heck moron? Do you even know what an epithet is? You were friggin right when you said you werent very smart. An epithet for me would be "Player of baseball". Dont use big friggin words, you freakin mental cripple... I believe this is what is known as "irony" ROTFLMAO!! I was just thinking the same thing southsider! Obviously the kid has no mirrors in his house. How many mirrors do you need in a glass house?

lol. So now .248 with NO multi RBI HR's is good? s*** then we have an AWESOME team!!!

BINGO! I believe someone on here said it best when they said Stop living in the PAST!
