Trying to score runs with Juan Pierre as your leadoff hitter is like trying to suture a wound in a moving car. You might still be successful -- but why make it so hard on yourself?

LUCY!

I knew that ball I got signed by him at Spring Training ’10 would be worth something someday.

But this begs the question: Where will he play?

Didn't think I'd ever see Flowers and Lucy on the same major league roster before September 1

Unless they were both released and signed by Seattle.

Love Zambrano to the Jays for Teahen - my favorite:
The Cubs could attempt to use Teahen as a supersub next year. But to Toronto, does Zambrano offer any advantage to Teahen?

Uh, he would hit better than Teahen by a factor of 3, and probably supersub as well.

by TasteeFreeze on Aug 16, 2011 2:29 PM CDT up reply actions  

I remember reading an op-ed

in the Tribune c. 2006, suggesting that Zambrano should be converted to the outfield, because hey, it worked for Babe Ruth. And you wonder why I don’t read the Tribune sports section.

Frank Thomas's wOBA at the time of the 1994 strike was .497. He was on pace to hit 54 homers, drive in 152 runs, walk 152 times, and pile up 10.5 WAR.

by mikecws91 on Aug 16, 2011 3:25 PM CDT up reply actions  

if he ever hurt his arm

he should have converted to a position player. he’s a hell of a hitter for a pitcher. with more focus, he could be a legitimate position player, too.

by larry on Aug 16, 2011 3:28 PM CDT up reply actions  

He has gone off the rails

because he cannot concentrate on his job. If he has the mental capacity to hit he’d be able to pitch without completely melting down.

by winningugly on Aug 16, 2011 3:48 PM CDT up reply actions  

maybe.

we’d still be having the conversation about the cubs needing to dump his salary. as i recall, he’s one of the top ten highest paid players. he isn’t a top ten pitcher in his division. and it’s his stuff that’s the primary problem.

by larry on Aug 16, 2011 3:53 PM CDT up reply actions  

Come on, now.

Now you are just arguing to argue. The premise was that he’s a good hitter and if hurt he sould convert to a position player. Well, he is hurt. His head is totally fucked. Mental hurt is legitimate, and it is legitimately hurting his ability to perform at baseball in any capacity.

You don’t get sent to your room for 30 days because of salary issues.

it was fun, jim gaffigan is great

and it was material i hadn’t heard before. he only did his Hot Pocket material as an encore. I lost about a hundo playing poker afterwards…was way too drunk to be playing, but whatever. i was talking shit to the opposite end of the table because they were all folding machines (i think I asked the dealer to check those people’s pulses to make sure they were still alive). i got my comeuppance when I flopped a set of 9’s and one of these folks flopped a flush, and I didn’t improve to a full house on the turn or river.
