Ronny
If ha had Theriot`s bat he would be an all-star!
if i had a million dollars
id be a millionaire…
people who swing at the first pitch should get punched in the face
For some reason, that FanCam wasn't quite the same as the one they had on their West Coast trip
Can’t quite put my finger on it, but it was definitely different… hmm…

That one shot looked like Hilary Clinton
Slow day at the State Department?

Just got home.... How are things going?
You see, wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? And radio operates exactly the same way: you send signals here, they receive them there. The only difference is that there is no cat. - Albert Einstein

Cubs are winning, 4-2
Which means neither Miles nor Gregg have seen any action yet.

Sam Fuld giving Lou more reasons to keep him on the bench
"Truth hurts. Maybe not as much as jumping on a bicycle with the seat missing, but it hurts." - Leslie Nielson
on this one, I can't concur with Al
Fuld’s a good player who, given some more time, can be a really good one.

there is no way that Fuld shouldn't be given a chance to be in the roster of 25 next year.
he is a left handed Reed Johnson with better defense and speed
"Truth hurts. Maybe not as much as jumping on a bicycle with the seat missing, but it hurts." - Leslie Nielson
Yeah Sam Fuld shouldn't start
He was put in the line-up in the 7th hole. No double switch. We wouldn’t want Fuld to lead off an inning…..
if Miles shows up, I will puke
"Truth hurts. Maybe not as much as jumping on a bicycle with the seat missing, but it hurts." - Leslie Nielson
Sam Fuld
Is a player! Unfortunately he doesn`t have a 30 million dollar contract so he is destined for the bench!
I think Lou is worried he might win this one
I really think he wants to get fired and collect his money
Nice catch... Loved the comment in WGN TV
Routine catch… He didn’t have to run into anything…

If it was up to Lou Soriano would be in LF
I think Hendry may have had a hand in pulling the plug on Sori.
The same way he traded Perez away in 2006 so Dusty would stop playing him.
How about a few insurance runs!!!

no such luck. 4-2 for Marmol.

I wish Len would stop mentioning that "one HR stat" about Marmol.
bad karma to keep bringing it up
"Truth hurts. Maybe not as much as jumping on a bicycle with the seat missing, but it hurts." - Leslie Nielson
they are going to have to rethink the plans of rebuilding the Pirates around him
