2012 Chicago Cubs

Not as long as he stays married.

Thought this page would benefit from having this pic on it too.

Thanks for resetting the thread, Armchair.

Fuck the Cubs bullpen, cripes.

I agree. I've decided to watch the games only until the 7th inning and let the deserved wins pile up. Go Kubbeez.

Wow! Did you see this new catcher for the Cubs?  Someone named K. Hill.  Looks like he has a lot of promise.

Koyie just gave you the finger. Actually.

Went to the game today with my parents and my son, who was wearing a really cute little Cubs outfit.  My son likes to clap his hands and yell "yay", especially when the people around him are doing so.  Hence the cute little kid in the Cubs uniform cheering on the White Sox.

Just keep an eye on him. Don't want him getting early-onset mulletosis.

Cubs manager Dale Sveum said he will talk to team president Theo Epstein and general manager Jed Hoyer about the possibility of bringing Anthony Rizzo up in June.

LLFR1B?

So then Soriano sits while LaHair plays left? They platoon?

I suppose that Soriano could DH for those few interleague games that month.  Or he could play second base again?!?!?  (No.)

I'd rather watch Fonzie cover the keystone than I would Darwin Barney get another 250 plate appearances.  At least with Fonize at second, hilarity might ensue instead of just popfly badness.

DPD.  Not saying they should force the issue here by calling up Rizzo now anyway, but just for whenever they decide to do that.

Am I going to have to start a really annoying Darwin Barney fan club or something? He makes like $12 a year and is completely serviceable as a major league player. No, he shouldn't be a starter on a World Series caliber team but he's a useful piece.

but he's a useful piece.

OF SHIT, says someone here.

Fine.

I'd still rather watch Soriano at second though.

The team is on pace to lose 103 games and people are worried about who will DH for 6 games in June?

Would ignoring the issue make them win more games?
