Quick, get Hippo or Snoogans to bet on it in favor of Zambrano!

Quick, get Hippo or Snoogans to bet on it in favor of Zambrano!

The only silver lining is that the Cubs are beating the Astros who are becoming a pain-in-the-ass.

But for the record...I can't make it anymore clear to either of those meatheads....stay the fuck away from my team!

It's the Cub's year.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

1st no hitter since 1972

eat that epo, in your home park


get swept by the Phillies, you'll eee

Hell of performance.

I feel bad for Epo. I wouldn't wish what has happened to the Brewers today on anyone but a Mets fan.

Please, tell me that you think the Brewers WON'T make the playoffs. That would soothe some of my pain.

On Friday afternoon I had the whole world in front of me. The Brewers had a 4 game lead in the wildcard race...and I had the weekend free.

Now I have to go back to work in the morning, with a tie race and the knowledge that the godless Cubs made history in my park.

Fuck.

[K.C.]

And now the White Sox have blown a 7-0 lead.


...this could be the greatest regular season single day in Cubs' history, today.


They're settling all family business tonight.

And he started 3-0 on the first batter.

Fist no-no for the Cubs in 36 years.

Wow.

they are the A-Rod of baseball teams

True.

They didn't exactly set the world on fire last August and September either.

Last year it was, 'oh, it's the youthful inexperience showing through' excuse.


Nobody gets to use that one twice. Ned Yost is SO gone, if they don't make the playoffs.

the problem now is, whenever I see a snoogans post, it's morphed from Jay Mewes talking in my head to Manny

I'd feel sorry for any of you if I weren't waiting a decade for a season over .500.

I fuckin wish I could hit like that. I would be an even bigger money whore then Manny if I could

PHILADELPHIA -- The Brewers watched on television as the Cubs' Carlos Zambrano finished his no-hitter of the Astros on Sunday night, then took the celebration up the dugout tunnel.
In Milwaukee.

At Miller Park.

And in the Brewers' own clubhouse?

"Pretty ironic," Brewers outfielder Ryan Braun said. "They're probably drinking champagne and having a beer shower in our locker room right now, while we sulk about what happened here." (http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20080914&content_id=3478734&vkey=news_chc&fext=.jsp&c_id=chc)

Not surprisingly, this is the first no-no on a neutral site in modern MLB history.

Very surreal. That place was filled with apparently nothing but Cubs fans. I believe the last minute crowd was around 24,000, and damned if there was a single Astros fan in the place.

wasnt this an astros home game? Couldnt they have played it in like a city maybe closer to houston where it would be a houston crowd? This was almost as funny as the Giants playing a "road" game against the saints in Giants Stadium

Apparently the Rangers' stadium was one of the other options. There, St. Louis or Atlanta.

Tha said, really, where else would they find any Astros fans besides Houston?

"I felt good, I like the mound," Zambrano said. "This is a beautiful ballpark. Gosh, I wish we could have a new ballpark."

FUCK YES.

Maybe in a new stadium the Cubs could install urinals.

Savages!

GLORIOUS.

In all seriousness, I love the design of your guys' stadium up there, and wouldn't mind something like that in Chicago at all. And man, I wish the Cubs had a retractable roof.

I think the retractable roof is a mandatory for new stadiums, especially in the Midwest where weather is such a weird element over the long season.

I can't believe that Minnesota is replacing the Metrodome is and is going pure outdoors. That is freaking insanity.

That will seriously be the albatross of the Twins for the next 20 years. Do you have any idea the amount of doubleheaders and potential injuries they're going to deal with because of the weather in the front half of the season?

Talking to some from Minnesota, I think part of it is that the state government has such a fucked up debt load from Jesse Ventura's reign of the governorship that they couldn't afford the retractable dome version of a new stadium.

But yes...I agree with you completely.

[Dan 'Hampton]

only queers play indoors on turf.

[cougarjake13]

looks like the twins will playing at miller park as well

[epo]

only queers play indoors on turf.

Hence the beauty of a retractable dome roof. We have the benefit of a dome with the joy of real grass.

[Dan 'Hampton]

I agree, but enough with the teams in the NE need domes. That's not real sport.

[Snoogans]

I agree, but enough with the teams in the NE need domes. That's not real sport.

Minn isnt the north east. Its south canada. In april, it REALLY needs a fuckin dome.

[TheMojoPin]

I agree, but enough with the teams in the NE need domes. That's not real sport.

No football or baseball team should have a dome. Retractable roof, good idea...domes, BAD IDEA.

[Fallon]

No football or baseball team should have a dome. Retractable roof, good idea...domes, BAD IDEA.

What about basketball?

Fucking pussies!

[epo]

No football or baseball team should have a dome. Retractable roof, good idea...domes, BAD IDEA.

So you agree. The Cubs should destroy Wrigley, build a retractable dome and include urinals with dividers so the crowd can learn to act like gentlemen.

No wonder Cubs fans look confused in the Miller Park bathrooms and often piss in the sink.

epo, before you panic, read this:
I decided to start betting the cubs everyday. The day I did that, Zambo ate babies on his way to pitching a no hitter. Since then, the Cubs have not lost.
Now I just requested that Mojo help me out, and let the Brewers take this one, so when the Mets lose to Washington tonight, they would fall out of the WC lead. HE SAID NO. Something about needing to sweep the brewers so they clinch the division which is completely locked up anyway. GREEDY. So, maybe Ben Sheets throws a no hitter tonight:

Seriously, I've defended him over the years as he has never had a "serious" injury so it was all "fluke". At this point he has no guts in what would be the biggest game of his life.

You are nuts. Fielder and his 82 homers in the last 2 seasons > that Matt Cain's 3.81 ERA in the last 2 seasons.

They'd be crazy to trade Prince Fielder.

Corey Hart, Rickie Weeks, J.J. Hardy....that would make sense.

But Fielder and Braun are guys you keep.

The Brewers have enough prospects that they should be able to pull a Zack Greinke, or a Matt Cain without dumping Fielder or Braun.

I'm just saying, Cain is highly touted and the Brewers desperately need the pitching if they wanna stay in it and they have good offensive players coming up AND there's been the rumblings/pubic displays of Prince's "difficult" personality. Sure, the Giants suck and need the help, but it's not like they're in danger of falling out of a shot of making the playoffs again next year like the Brewers are. There's no way Prince alone gets it done. I think It's Prince plus someone like Hart and a prospect or Prince and a couple of prospects with Cain and another pitching prospect (ideally for the Brewers' stank bullpen) in return.

You should know by now that Peter Gammon's rumors are just stupid. If the Brewers traded Prince they would bring back a haul despite his being an apparent asshole.

More distressing to me is the fact that apparently the Melvin family is preparing to move this off-season.

I'm not talking about Gammons' take; that's my take. The Brewers aren't in the dirver's seat in a deal like this. The Giants have had no problem wallowing in the cellar. There's nothing at stake for them at this point. I don't think it's likely the Brewers would give two established players for Cain, but Fielder and a couple of offensive prospects seems very realistic.

Mind you that Cain isn't the only way Milwaukee can go. This is a horrible free agent class for power hitters....much less first baseman. The Brewers will have multiple options if they decide to move Fielder and would be in the drivers seat...in my opinion.

I bet you just Prince Fielder could get you Kasey Kahne

Obviously, if they're willing to move Fielder, that gives them a lot of options in terms of teams interested. I wouldn't be surprised if this was just to get the idea out there to see what teams offer up.

[Tenbatsuzen]

I bet you just Prince Fielder could get you Kasey Kahne

Does that deal include the cougars?

[Snoogans]

Obviously, if they're willing to move Fielder, that gives them a lot of options in terms of teams interested. I wouldn't be surprised if this was just to get the idea out there to see what teams offer up.

Now that Fielder's hitting arbitration, he's starting to be limited in who would want to take on his salary.

Remember, Ryan Howard absolutely ruined arbitration for good last season.

Fielder's going to get a ton of money.


He wouldn't fit for a team like San Francisco because they're still way off in rebuilding. If the Brewers were looking to trade him, it'd be to either New York (either team), Anaheim, Baltimore, and maybe the Dodgers.

I'm not sure anyone else would really be able to afford him if his salary starts to escalate in a comparable fashion to Howard's.

A team like the Giants would pay him, but they're not in the position where they'd look to add that piece yet.

Like I said, they're better off trading spare parts like Hardy and Hart, and the moving prospects for pitching.

[K.C.]

Final Week Pitching Probables:

Pittsburgh Pirates (Jeff Karstens 2-6, 4.37) vs. Milwaukee Brewers (Dave Bush 9-10, 4.22)
Pittsburgh Pirates (Paul Maholm 9-8, 3.68) vs. Milwaukee Brewers (Jeff Suppan 10-10, 5.06)
Pittsburgh Pirates (Zach Duke 5-14, 4.96) vs. Milwaukee Brewers (C.C. Sabathia 15-10, 2.85)
Chicago Cubs (Ryan Dempster 16-6, 3.02) vs. Milwaukee Brewers (Seth McClung 5-6, 4.22)
Chicago Cubs (TBD) vs. Milwaukee Brewers (TBD)
Chicago Cubs (TBD) vs. Milwaukee Brewers (Dave Bush 9-10, 4.22)


The Cubs would be slated to throw Harden and Zambrano the final two days of the season, but I seriously doubt that'll happen, as Pinella will hold both back to set his rotation for the playoffs. It'll most likely be Marquis and Marshall.

The TBD for the Brewers, is most likely Sheets and whether or not he can go. I'd imagine Manny Parra would get the start, or they'd move Bush and Suppan up the last two days.

Either way, the Brewers shold get two of three from Pittsburgh. The tough game is Suppan vs. Maholm.

I would imagine the Brewers will see very few regulars the last two games of the Cubs series. They should see no one in the final game. The second to last game, they may see a few. So realistically, if they're a playoff team, they should win both of those, unless Pinella decides he wants to spoil them and plays everyone.

So that would really leave the Dempster vs. McClung start as the deciding factor. In the Mets thread, I have the Mets pegged at 3-4 to finish the season.

The Brewers would have to get to 5-1 to force a playoff. I can see them getting four wins, but that Dempster game will be difficult.

I'd have to say 4-2 for the Brew Crew and a narrow miss of the playoffs.

However, if they were to force a playoff, they would most likely have Sabathia on the hill, while the Mets would have burned Santana against Florida and would likely throw Martinez or Pelfrey.

[epo]

Chicago Cubs (TBD) vs. Milwaukee Brewers (TBD)

The TBD for the Brewers, is most likely Sheets and whether or not he can go. I'd imagine Manny Parra would get the start, or they'd move Bush and Suppan up the last two days.


There is another possibility for that TBD...a returning Yovani Gallardo. He isn't really stretched out...but they could patch together a start from Yovani and the bullpen if necessary.

Obviously if they are out of it, Gallardo doesn't see the mound until next spring.

[albo60s]

They'd be crazy to trade Prince Fielder.

Corey Hart, Rickie Weeks, J.J. Hardy....that would make sense.

But Fielder and Braun are guys you keep.

The Brewers have enough prospects that they should be able to pull a Zack Greinke, or a Matt Cain without dumping Fielder or Braun.


You don't watch Fielder play every day, we do.
He is below average defensively. Can't run at all, only plays one position, is a hot head, is streaky. got in a fight in the dugout with Parra.
His agent is Boras so you know he will want a big contract. Doesn't do enough to warrant the contract he wants.
Brad Nelson could be brought up from Nashville. He would drive in 85 & hit 20 or more homers, .280 ba.
Fielder will have around 100 rbi this season & 35 homers.
Braun signed a reasonable long term deal with the club & is the new face of the team, not Prince.
Trade Prince for pitching. Hardy to 2nd, Escobar ss, Gamel 3rd, Cameron Hart & Braun outfield.
Braun is going to be a major star, he has rib injuries now.
Gallardo will be better than Sheets, Parra will improve, Suppan, Bush & whoever we get for Fielder. The pitching will be ok in 2009, the Brewers should contend for several years.

All the same things have been said about Ryan Howard (except the fighting his pitcher in the dugout part).

In the end, the Brewers would not get anything close to value of what Fielder gives you when he's hot.

He's a guy who can carry his team on his back when he's hot, like Howard does.

He also goes cold like Howard does, and has the same faults. The bottom line is that the good outweighs the bad.

The Brewers need to find better complimentary pieces, not blow up the core.

Believe me, the Phillies went through almost the same thing in 2005 and 2006, and each year, people would scream a little bit louder about how they need to blow that team apart, because that core couldn't win.


I'd listen to anything if I was them, but unless it was an offer that just blows them out of the water, I wouldn't move him for the sake of moving him, or for the likes of a Matt Cain.

Different situation for the Brewers. They have enough talent on the team now and in the minors that they don't have to "blow up the team." They can make a trade centered around Prince to upgrade their pitching and still have a ton of offensive talent to make them competitive.

[epo]

A. The Cubs can do me a favor and continue to whip the Mets so that I don't have to worry about blowing up the team until after the playoffs.

B. I hate to admit this at any point of my life, but Mojo is right that the Brewers are in a different place on this one. With their minor league system being stocked, they are in a position of strength to deal Fielder if they so choose.

Odds would if they move Fielder, Brad Nelson fills in at first until Mat Gamel is ready to play on a regular basis at first. They then move Hardy to third and play Alcides Escobar at SS and lead him off.

Fielder would draw the pitching they need to be competitive, especially in the light of a returning Yovani Gallardo and an improved Manny Parra.

The off-season losses of Sabathia & Sheets then gives them 5 of the top 35 picks, on the heels of having 6 of the top 70 picks. The minor leagues are then officially restocked.

I understand that there's also more payroll limitations, but that would just suggest to me to move some of the prospects for pitching, keep Fielder, and try to win in the window they have.

I'm all for building from within, but Fielder strikes me as one of those players that comes along once a decade for an organization, that you can build around.

I just think they'd regret it.

I'll disagree with you on the point of Sheets. I don't think anybody other than Sheets knows how long he can go today. He has a huge history of coming back strong in his first start after an injury...but nobody knows about today.

After Soto got pulled last night, I'd be surprised if Lou doesn't start pulling back on the frontline starters.

CF Mike Cameron
3B Bill Hall

RHP Ben Sheets

They are facing Ted Lilly, hence the right-handed lineup.

After Soto got pulled last night, I'd be surprised if Lou doesn't start pulling back on the frontline starters.

Those guys shouldn't have been starting last night in the first place. I was laughing at Cubs fans on the board I go to who were raging at Soriano for not going hard after 3 flyballs where he would have had to dive twice and jump against the wall for the 3rd to catch them...why would they want him to do that at this point? He held back so he doesn't chance gettin hurt on meaningless plays in games that are meaningless for the Cubs. It's stupid to have given those guys anything more tha spot starts in the last week.

Game 5: Sabathia

The Phillies really have their work cut out for them.

If you looked at my posts from last year

I took the Rockies until the WS then picked the Red Sox
