1) The Cubs tradin...Stick to the mai thais dude...<br /><br />1) The Cubs trading of Mark Derosa wasnt for anything except acquiring Jake Peavy...in case you didnt know (you dont know much)we got 3 young ars,m (who arent anything special) that we are supposed to team up with Sean Marchall to land Peavy.Dont sit here and tell me that lou approved of this move. <br /><br />2) Clutch is a myth? WTF sports do watch? your telling me that theres no such thing as a clutch player? Derose was the def. of one. He hit better in the late innings of games than he did the first few and maybe you only watch the cubs (part of your problem) but you must of missed the WBC...Derosa was Team USAs best player numbnuts and your going to sit here and tell me the Cubs are better off with Aaron Miles than him? please and dont give me the Milton Bradley thing either, hes already hurt and we could of kept them bioth on the team...not to mention in case you forgot but Derosa played quite a few positions thats invaluble.<br /><br />3)Who the best pitcher in baseball is, is always going to be a debate. Ill just let you know that since 2003 Jake Peavy has by far the best era of any SP in the game. Hes 27 and plays for a horrible offense. He would of won 20 here no prob and been the real deal ace we need. He also demanded a trade to the cubs only like you said and the cubs still couldnt get him<br /><br />4)Nothing to the idea? well did you watch todays game against STL? nah you probby were watching MTV or something but when Zambrano gives up a big hit or his team has an error he loses concentration real fast. He loses it even faster when at home due to the crowd, whether it be booing or just trying to throw too hard b/c hes so pumped...it doesnt matter. He pitched great on the road 90% of the time including when the cubs brewers were neutral at Milwaukee and he pitched a no no. All you need to do is look at the era on the road and at home the last few years and youll feel like a real fool when you see nothing you said made sense and you gave no reasons to back up your claims except some lame excuse that makes me think you should stick to whatever it is you do...now put your hand back up your ass and be that typical Cubs fan that thinks this is the year.<br /><br />5) this is true and I still think we will get him. That however is no reason not to have gotten him yet. The real reason we didnt get him (yet) is due to the fact of the change in hands in ownership.<br /><br />What else you got for? I can argue sports (not hockey) all day. I know more about basketball, football and baseball than I do Chicago food. Got it? Good.KingThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05368411195212070782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7759763120880236446.post-16186071815272590862009-04-16T13:50:00.000-05:002009-04-16T13:50:00.000-05:00Stick to the food reviews dude. Your Cubs knowled...Stick to the food reviews dude. Your Cubs knowledge is weak. <br /><br />1) The Cubs traded Mark DeRosa to clear salary space and because Lou wanted a more left-handed hitting lineup. DeRosa had a reasonable contract and was coming off a career year, which means it was the best time to trade him. <br /><br />2) Clutch is an absolute myth in general and for DeRosa. You can offer no stats to back that up. And the fact is his numbers were pretty similar with and without runners on base last year. With runners on and two outs, his numbers were not good. You want some anecdotal DeRosa non-clutch? Check out his series killing DP in the 2007 NLDS. <br /><br />3) Jake Peavy is not the best pitcher in baseball under any reasonable metric. He's a great talent, but not the best. Hyperbole is lazy writing.<br /><br />4) There is nothing to the idea that Zambrano needs to start on the road. He was more than good enough last year in the playoffs. It was the defense that was absolute crap.<br /><br />5) That the Cubs have not gotten Peavy yet does not mean that they won't. He wants to play here and he has a no-trade clause. Trade deadline is still months away.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
