Th last time I went to see the cubs play the Cards at Wrigley, Sammy Sosa hit a walk-off in the bottom of the 17th inning. By that time, I was at the Cubby Bear drinking vodka-lemonaide watching on the big screen.

Bringing Franklin out for a second inning...mistake.

Colby Rasmus is the only one of those that will ever amount to anything. He's the only top prospect the Cardinals have. Some farm system!!!!!!!!11 |

Big Z, Harden and Dempster in the playoffs... You win with the bullpen and your bench down the stretch...who has a better bullpen or bench than the Cubs? |

GAME OVER! CUBS WIN! CUBS WIN! CUBS WIN!

You guys got Dan Haren pitching tomorrow?
|
WOOP WOOOP
Go Ninja Go Ninja Go |
Here's the bullpen we've been waiting for.
|
FUKAYOU!!!!!
could be a hero |
Get Garcia's ass up... Not that Franklin will make it to Edmonds anyway
|
hey...
quick question... does rebuilding entail sending Dan Haren to the A's for Mark Mulder? |
bahhhh

Anderson is going to be a damn good big league catcher, Perez is the closer of the future (and apparently the present) who just sliced you guys apart, Todd has a microscopic ERA, Mortenson is being fast-tracked, McCellan is already productive at the big league level. |
Let's do this, Hank White!
|
This is so over.

YOU GOT BLANCO'D! Back to the farm system... We are set at LF, RF, 3rd, SS, 2nd, 1st, C and have a damn good pitching staff... so have fun with your one top prospect and 5 other stiffs that might turn out but probably not... |
Frazod's probably cursing up a storm about now.

Tough loss, good game tho. Zambrano normally owns us, so it's not looking good for tomorrow either. |

Good game.

Your team is aging in dog years and you're set?? ROFL ROFL Let's not forget that Harden is made of glass, Lilly is 32, Dempster is 31 and has never done this before, and Marquis is trash. You better savor this year because you guys are going to need a massive rebuild and soon. |

Even if we only had 3 (assuming you're talking about lifespan of the fans?), that's three more than you've won in 100 years, and yet you'd think you guys just won 4 straight WS's. |

I find it interesting that Hootie was accusing us of being fair weather fans, but UP and Sea of Red didn't hop on here until the game was almost over...

But sorry for not keeping up with the conversation quickly enough for your liking when there was nothing going on in the Gametracker. Quote:

A-Rod is having a down year, Jones can't stay off the DL, Berkman has slowed way down in the last two months and probably won't match his power numbers from last year despite a better lineup. Utley, Bradley, and Burrell are all having career years. Funny how that tends to happen right before you decline. C'mon, Peanut. |

Go Cubs!!1 |
70 wins into the season, Cubs have a +144 run differential. The Phillies are the next closest NL team at +72 -- HALF the Cubs mark.
That is reeruned. |
http://sports.espn.go.com/fantasy/ba...page=age27myth
Suffice to say, from the chart above, it's clear a player's prime runs about six or seven years, from ages 26 through 32. |

Cardinal fans = Bronco fans + Yankee fans

Quote:
Obviously, they're going to be declining by 2010. That's why having such a strong team this year is so nice. |
Quote:
So the Cubs have 5-8 years before they need to worry about having a "rich" farm system... Oh my, what are they going to do?! |

30-35 is prime years...you figure out a routine, you figure out pitching, etc... Lee, Ramirez, Soriano, Fukodome, Theriot...they aren't going anywhere for the next 5-8 years. And the Cubs can buy talent just like anyone else. A farm system is nice, but have fun with all of those young guys and being in 3rd place for the next half decade. |

Jones was hitting .400 for most of the season...ARod got hurt for the first time in his career...Berkman is having another typical Berkman year...if you think players start declining at 32 you are insane. ROFLROFLROFLROFLROFL PSEUDO-INTELLECTUAL HAMAS JENKINS LADIES AND GENTLEMAN! |
Quote:
but the Cubs have SUPERSTARS... Derrek Lee, superstar. Aramis Ramirez, superstar. Alfonso Soriano, superstar. These guys will be producing into their late thirties. And their pitching is rock solid... AND unlock the Cardinals... They are always buyers in the offseason. You are insane if you prefer the state of your organization over the state of the Cubs organization... They are STACKED. |
Quote:
Wouldn't those people be your superstars? |
Big Z, Harden, Dempster, Lilly...
Or Carpenter, Lohse, Looper, Wellemeyer LMAO |
Quote:
Oh no! and besides, Pujols is at least 35...so he should be slowing down pretty soon. |
Hamas? You're arguing with Hootie again.
Just thought you should know that. |
and besides, that article is pretty fucking misleading...and dumb.
Ok, a guy hits him prime when he's 27 and slows down at...wait, it doesn't show them slowing down because they scale everything to 600 AB's... That was reeruned after I went back and really looked at it... Tristin is a homo, anyways. |
Quote:
And A-Rod isn't declining, but just happened to have gotten hurt for the first time and has lower OPS, OBP, and a higher K rate. I'm sure that's just a coincidence. |
Quote:
Oh and that damn Larry Jones, only hitting .370 now...and he's on the DL!? Must be due to age...oh wait, he's been on the DL every year since he was twenty friggin' three! |

Quote:
And you're right, Lance is totally regressing...he was in his prime until the all-star break and then his age really caught up to him and his power is just completely gone now! Amazing how that happens! LOL! One cold streak and it's because he's 32 (relatively young for baseball players)... That 34 year old Jermaine Dye is really struggling, too... Man, it's a good thing EVERY baseball player regresses around age 32... Hahahaha! This is hilarious. |
That Jim Thome...shit, his power is really regressing with age!
