Friday Rockpile: The Marquis of Sod
According to a Tracy Ringolsby post this morning, the Rockies are getting outgunned in their pursuit of a pitcher that they want, Tim Redding, so rather than competing with other teams in the matter -which correct me if I'm wrong, competing with other teams is the point of sports, right?- they're...
Friday Rockpile: Atkins staying put; 9th starter Redding or Marquis
Tracy Ringolsby reports that the Rockies are hanging onto Garrett Atkins not only as Todd Helton insurance, but also for a second reason that I hadn't previously associated with our incumbent third baseman, that uncertainty over Jeff Francis means that the team doesn't know if it will be needing to...

Marquis Madness: Cubs 9, Mets 5
It's kind of weird, this week's worth of "meaningless" games. For one thing, they're not completely meaningless -- the Cubs are facing teams they could possibly face in October, so this gives them a chance for firsthand scouting, in addition to showing they can still beat the Mets and...
Marquis Mark: Cubs 2, Pirates 0
Stop what you're doing right now and look around you, remember where you are, what you are doing, because this is an historic day in Cubs history. You'd have to be over 70 years old (and there may be a few here, but not many) to really remember the last time a Cubs team was 33 games over .500....
Derailed: Cubs 5, Nationals 13
Here's the best way to sum up today's 13-5 Cub loss to the Nationals: it should have kept raining, which it was for about an hour between 12 and 1 this afternoon, delaying the start of the game to 2:20. Then we would have been spared watching the Cubs quickly run off the rails -- all due to a...
Sixty-Nine: Cubs 11, Astros 4
What, you thought that was some kind of sex reference? On this site? Sixty-nine is, of course, the number of wins the Cubs have after today's outstanding 11-4 Cubs win over the Astros, the last of twenty games in twenty consecutive days following the All-Star break, during which the Cubs went...
Letdown: Cubs 0, Pirates 3
I nearly fell asleep in the bleachers today and it wasn't because I was tired, as I usually am due to my work hours -- I've had the last two days off and have had plenty of sleep. No, today I was yawning because the Cubs looked completely out of sorts, stymied by a guy they apparently knew...
Didn't We Already See This Game? - Cubs 2, Diamondbacks 9
When a game starts out like the previous day's, our catchphrase in the bleachers is, "Didn't we see this game yesterday?" Depressingly, last night's 9-2 Cub loss to Arizona started out like Monday night's -- with the Cubs down 1-0 on a solo HR by a Diamondback hitter; this time, even earlier...
