Castro making heady defensive plays and on his way to a new HR career high


Things looking up!

Things looking up from a long term point of view

Casey Coleman.... still got it.

Yes he does. I think I would rather only see him bat.

I m not pleased about getting No Hit so far. I think cubs have the longest string of Not getting no hit on MLB. Maybe since the 60's or something? Only 6 outs left!

It's way past time for this LaHair thing to come to an end. Get a kid any kid up there to get those at bats. He has no business being on a major league team let alone hitting in the middle of the lineup.

But he's an All Star!!

He's still riding the flukiest month in the history of baseball. He did his job. He kept the seat warmish until Rizzo was ready. Now put him and everyone who has to watch him out of their misery.

So you are saying it is time to trade back for Jake Fox and Micah Hoffpauir and play tham at the corners? I agree.

I was called a hater for making the ridiculous suggestion that he wouldn't continue to hit like Miguel Cabrera.

Everyone stop the presses two sox fans agree that a Cubs player sucks

So by saying that he isn't Miguel Cabrera, I said he sucks. And Sox fans are the sensitive ones.

Not really sensitive I think LaHair sucks too. I just think it's groovy you predicted that the amazing Bryan LaHair would come back down to earth. Nobody else saw that dip in production coming from a career minor leaguer.

Fair enough. I remember alot of people mocking Bryan LaHair even during his hot start. But you I am sure you spend more time in the Cubs forum than I do so I will defer to your knowledge of the pulse of Cubs fans on the board.

Take a look at how much I post in the Cubs forums, genius. Most of the time, it is to post a lineup. Who pissed in your corn flakes today?

I do like to consider myself a genius thank you. And I don't think I will be reviewing your posting history I don't have time to go through all of your betting lines. You are a gentleman and a scholar. Have a wonderful day.

Quintana might be an even bigger fluke

Im not trying to get into a big thing here but I dont think anyone, at least on this board, was predicting he'd keep it up.

I said he had better numbers than Konerko at the time....and he did.

.285 / 27 / 80

Those were the numbers that I predicted for Lahair, and I was told to "quit hatin" for thinking he wasn't Miguel Cabrera. As we see now, he isn't going to reach any of those.

Today, I am accused of trolling the Cubs section, which is so far from the truth, it's comical.

I didn't see the "Cubs Fans Only" sign on the wall. I will show myself out.
