Ron is saying...
Now might they do it Pat, now Cubs is playing;
And now they’ll do’t. And so they go to heaven Milwaukee;
And so am I revenged. That would be scann’d:
The Mets kill my team; and for that,
I, a Cubs broadcaster, do this Brewers team send
To heaven.
O, this is hire and salary, not broadcasting.

he has messed up another, maybe two more

yeah his range is not very good
too bad Shawn stopped following us. He would know about the stats for LBR

That was too close for comfort. Fontenot you could have prevented that.
Baker is so much more solid @ the 2. I know we need bats right now but up the middle defense is vital.
have to agree with this

Still 2-0. Let’s get outa this one.

Hehe, en serio
Me gusta su entusiasmo, aunque puedo comprender porque le pareciera ridiculo a cualquiera…
Es como el futbol…hay comentaristas que me tienen hasta la ma… con sus gritos que parecen mas chillidos de gol

with how well he hits in MIlwaukee, would there be any sense to the idea of trading him to the Brewers?
Unofficial Self Appointed President of the Castro Blocker Fan Club
Slightly OT
but the Tennessee Smokies are on FIRE. Our AA team is stacked. It’s 12-5 Smokies in the 5th.
Castro, now hitting .417, hit his 4th triple of the year, along with driving in his 13th run.
2010 is OUR year.
Could the Cubs just trade places with them for a week
and see how it goes?

And if Castro can keep this up
He’ll certainly be one of the highest prospects in the MLB.

Yep he is certainly looking good

I liked that inning despite just the one run
They hit the ball solid for the most part, you keep that up and more runs will surely score from Soup.

Yes indeed...a Dome homer to right field
Making Edmonds chase it and look a little silly when it landed well past his reach
Course I’d love to see our outfielders looking silly like that on every play. Always liked having him fielding for us

what position would you draft next round? I think CB is pretty weak still.
