Sorry to hear you're a Cubbies fan.
My Tigs lost 12-5. Apparently it wasn't pretty.
[quote=molds13;57980]Haha...isn't that what you say every year?[/quote]
Yes. Eventually I'll be right.
I was talking to someone today about the comment Zambrano made regarding a new field for the Cubs. The guy said.. "tell him to start winning and maybe he'll get a new field." :blue:
Hey Bacchus, can we get a baseball smilie?
I have been a Braves fan since I was a kid bc they are closest team in geography to me!! But where I live is a Cubs AA team for the last 3 or so years and then last year I went to Wrigley for the 1st time (freaking awesome) so now I am a Cubs fan also. So I have 2 teams that I root for! So opening weekend was awesome cause the Braves won Sun night and the Cubs won tonight!!!

Yeah, my die-hard Phillies' roommate was not too pleased about that game.
It's ok though, if the Tigs lose, there's always football.
Oh wait.
I meant basketball.
Oh wait.
I meant hockey. Yeah, hockey. Love me some Red Wings!

I am a bit confused bc this is a Baseball thread!
Jrmdawgs, it's impossible to step foot into Wrigley Field and not be a fan of the Cubs. It's the second oldest park in the league. (Fenway is first).
Ps. No trip to Wrigley is complete without a stop by The Cubbie Bear. Have you been?
[quote=jrmdawgs;57992]I am a bit confused bc this is a Baseball thread![/quote]
...it is. Just trying to make a joke about how much sports suck in Detroit as of late...except the Wings. And sometimes the Tigs.

Are you auditioning for a mod job?
B and I will probably reserve our baseball discussion for the first day of the season, when the Red Sox and Yankees play on April 22, in Boston. :biggrin:
[QUOTE=Bacchus;58025]BoSox opening day was rained out. They start the season today at 4:06 ET.
The good news is I got to watch the Yankees play on ESPN. :D[/QUOTE]
You cheated... There will be payback.

So true! I didn't get to watch much of the Yanks loss (muahahahah!) but I was pretty surprised they lost so badly. I'm intrigued to see a glimpse into the new stadium during the series in May. I've heard it is pretty much like going to a resort and I expected nothing less.
Sox v Rays today, hopefully! I wasn't able to watch any of the spring training games so I am excited to see my boys in action for the first time in '09! Maybe there will even be a good old Beckett dugout swear fest :)
[quote=Insider;58162]Congrats to the Bosox.[/quote]
Beckett was absolutely dominate through 7. I have a good feeling about this year. Especially when you read the preseason predictions and hear Cy Young, Beckett, Lester and Dice-K all in the same sentence. I think it is clear the Sox have the best pitching in baseball and when a guy like Mike Lowell is batting 7th in the order, you have to assume the hitting is not that bad either.
We have a great squad and I think we are going to be waging a championship campaign.
How about Beckett's line:
7.0 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 3 BB, 10 SO, 0 HR 1.29 ERA, 93-61 PC-ST
I missed this Beckett! Welcome to the '09 season Josh. Now just stay healthy please :)

Is there still an Indianapolis Mud Hens? I've lost track of AAA ball. :sofa:

As prepared as I'll ever be, Insider.
