LINGERING BURSITIS: April 2005
http://lbcubs.blogspot.com/2005_04_01_archive.html
You know they're not going to lose 162 consecutive games." - Harry Caray. Friday, April 29. The Hawk weighs in.finally. I had the pleasure of watching this one from beginning to end. With all the hype surrounding it, I figured I’d use it for my first LB post. Here goes. There wasn’t a whole lot of excitement from the third on (save for Burnitz hitting the game winning dinger in the 7th) as the pitching duel picked up so I’ll spare you my inning by inning thoughts and go straight to the pro/con breakdown.

You know they're not going to lose 162 consecutive games." - Harry Caray. Tuesday, May 31. LaTroy Hawkins and the Trade. Jerome Williams, SP/RP. Jerome "Honeymoon" Williams has been in the majors since roughly 2003, seeing 43 starts over the 2003 and 2004 seasons as a 4th or 5th starter in the rotation. This season was penciled in to be more of the same, although a rough start scared the organization into moving him to the minors (a LaTroy-esque 0-2, 6.48 ERA in 3 starts). David Aardsma, RP. He has been ...

LINGERING BURSITIS: December 2005

You know they're not going to lose 162 consecutive games." - Harry Caray. Wednesday, December 21. Jones-ing for a real RF. This definitely shook the cobwebs off an otherwise turgid week of Cubs news, as the team announced the signing of bells-and-whistles FA Jacque Jones to a 3-year, $16 million deal in Chi-town. What are we thinking? Despite career numbers of .279 BA/.327 OBP/.782 OPS, Jones has posted two mediocre seasons back-to-back in 2004 and 2005. 2 A touch of clutch. 3 Reasonable in the Field.

You know they're not going to lose 162 consecutive games." - Harry Caray. Tuesday, August 30. Artist's Rendering of my Kitchen Table last night (without blue velvet). Well, after another Cub Scout pitching effort last night, I'm actually happy. That's right, the title is no lie. I'm happy we lost, and I have a million and one reasons to find relief and (hopeful) vindication despite the ESPN-broadcast hit parade. So, where to begin? Kerry Wood taking season-ending surgery. In addition to this, he was effe...

You know they're not going to lose 162 consecutive games." - Harry Caray. Friday, February 17. Dear Harold Reynolds,. Where have you been? I know we might have parted ways this past October on rocky terms, maybe even with a mild amount of animosity on my part due to some of our differences in opinions. However, that subsided and all but disappeared rather quickly, leaving me with an empty and cold feeling for most of the winter. Posted by Hyposquasher @ 2:43 PM. Sweet Jesus, it's here! Incredible.

LINGERING BURSITIS: November 2005

You know they're not going to lose 162 consecutive games." - Harry Caray. Wednesday, November 30. You Have Reached the Summer of My Discontent. Mabry can play average ball just about anywhere. He filled in admirably for the Cards through several injuries, although his offense was far below his career line:. 240 BA, .295 OBP, .407 SLG. 269 BA, .325 OBP, .412 SLG. So, we've apparently wrapped up our third low-key signing of the off-season, and in relatively short time too. Our bullpen is sorted, our be...
