Felix Pie was called up today and this has to be his time to shine. He has the confidence and he is sick of being sent down to AAA, when he knows that he can perform in the big league level. “I’m not going to go back down again. You’re going to see me here […]

Ryan Theriot sent a message to Lou Piniella on Monday night with no words… just doubles… Theriot seemed very comfortable hitting 2 doubles and flying to DEEP Center field… If he can keep this up Soriano, who has a tear in his quadricep, might be forced to go into the 5 hole when he comes […]

Maybe it’s the kool-aid talking, but this season is not over, even though ONE of our star players is hurt… One is the keyword in that sentence. We have other stars that have the ability to carry this team. Aramis Ramirez has been slumping, but I expect him to pick it […]

My random rant for today is having Koyie Hill catch instead of Jason Kendall. We needed Kendall’s bat today, but Koyie Hill was catching Marshall instead. I think Hill should catch for Zambrano and only Zambrano as he does very well with him, while Kendall has handled the rest of the rotation very nicely. Hill […]

In 2003, there was nothing but sweet bliss gracing the streets of the north side… Strangers hugging strangers as they sung aloud at the top of their lungs. Nothing could go wrong. But it all went from a heavenly dream to a nightmare full of headaches… From the Marlins coming back and beating us to […]
