Solodell 0 Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 I'll ressurrect this thread for you all by letting you know that in my 27 years on this planet there is not a scarier sight in baseball than looking up and seeing Pujols at the plate. Maybe it's because he's in the Cubs division, and I missed a lot of Bonds road games because they were so late, but when he is up I am practically writing at least a single on my scorecard and getting ready to write more before he even steps in the box. Even like 80% of his outs seem like line drives that someone has to make a play on. He's really ****ing scary.They'll still find a way to not give him MVP award again.

GeneralGeeWhiz 0 Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Thats because he is the best hitter since Ted Williams.Home run hitter or all around hitter?Edit: Just looked at Albert's stats. No doubt he is the best hitter since Williams. Link to post Share on other sites

SuitedAces21 2,722 Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 It really pissed me off when they didnt get bullpen help at the deadline. I pretty much gave up on them. Management left them to die a slow death, and I wasnt gonna watch it. Link to post Share on other sites

cubsfan44 0 Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Gee, thanks Tony for sitting Pujols, Glaus, and Ludwick vs the DBacks tonight. *******.I actually was gonna start a thread about this.........But do you think teams have a duty to the integrity of the game to play to win every game, even when the game means nothing to themselves.My vote is.....No, although I think its a bit different for the Cards to sit guys then a team that has games upcoming in October to worry about.

SuitedAces21 2,722 Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 how dare Tony give guys who've been playing daily for 7 months a day off.Tony has a responsibility only to his players and his team. not anyone else. same with any manager. Link to post Share on other sites

jdrury12 0 Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Set to acquire Khalil Greene today... can't complain there as long as we don't dish Perez or Motte. I like it. A lot more than I thought we'd do this off season. Link to post Share on other sites

Poppy_Hillis 11 Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 As a native of San Diego, be prepared to watch one of the most amazing defensive shortstops ever. I'm not comparing him to Ozzie Smith, but you guys did it to San Diego again. He has surprising power and despite his low average, he gets his fair share of timely hits.Don't judge him by his body language, because you will never ever see any emotion out of him, and don't think he doesn't care because of it, he does. He's also a heavily religious, Ba hai, I think it is, and has never had alcohol, soda, or any type of sugar. Plus he's a semi-serious rapper. Link to post Share on other sites

NonZeroPossibility 0 Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 Yes, as a lifelong Padre fan, I am really scratching my head on this one. We had no backup SS last year and now we trade this guy when his value is at an all-time low?... Khalil doesn't show any emotion whatsover, but he can play some D and has some pop. He ****ing rakes when he plays on the road at all the NL Central parks so I wouldn't be surprised to see him hit over 30 bombs. I've already been thinking about the Ozzie comparison and I know it's going to happen again. The cards just got a steal.As for Peavy, this whole thing is just goddamn ridiculous. The owner is getting a divorce and it's so ****ing obvious he's dismantling the team to get the payroll down and the overall value of the team down so he won't have to pay this bitch. Women are destroying my life even though I don't have a wife or anything close to a girlfriend. I'm pissed. Link to post Share on other sites
