I think this may be the team to beat in the Central.

I think this may be the team to beat in the Central.

They do have good hitting, but can their pitching hold up?

[BrianDawkins]

doubtful... anytime KFC offers free biscuits, im likely to lose 2/5ths of my rotation in sabathia and blanton

[General]

And Wickman.

[OrioleMagic]

What is YOUR definition of a "steamer"???

[Dry1313]

Wow. Chicago should try to acquire a shutdown lefty. He's pretty much got an entirely lefty lineup.

[BrianDawkins]

meh, its not as bad as it looks... because dejesus and sizemore hit lefties better than they do righties, ratings wise

and the only reason eduardo perez is on my team, much less in my lineup, is because he destroys lefties... 7-7-10-9-5 against southpaws

[Dam8610]

Wow. Chicago should try to acquire a shutdown lefty. He's pretty much got an entirely lefty lineup.

I have one. His name is Mark Buehrle.

When the hell did you guys get rid of Rick "Wild Thing" Vaughn? Dumbest move you've ever made if that's the case. I just can't see you winning the AL Central without him.

[BrianDawkins]

he talked out of line on the tonight show with jay leno

yea thats a reference to the sequel which all of 7 people saw, i rule like that

[DMBZeppelin]

The real question is: Have you seen Major League 3: Back to the Minors? Props if you have. I only know about it.
