This morning, walking to work, I was reading
the MLB headlines – my regular morning routine. Nothing makes
a 40 minute walk to work fly by like reading about who came
through in the clutch last night and who
fell…

Monday night, I had the pleasure of making a guest appearance on Bill Ivie’s I-70 Baseball Radio podcast on blogtalkradio.com. It is a great compilation of Cardinals and Royals fan bloggers and always a fun listen. This particular episode, they…
Welcoming Back Kerry Wood: Set-Up for Success
Posted: December 19, 2010 in DailiesTags: 2010, 2011, Cliff Lee, Cubs, Kerry Wood, Marmol, Marshall, MLB, Phillies, Quade, Wood
There have been some rather large events this off-season, signings that really jump off the screen at you, no? Look familiar? Cliff Lee’s signing with the Phillies has significantly changed the landscape of the National League. I don’t care…

When it comes to Chicago Cubs baseball, if recent events have taught us anything, it’s never say always. One of my favorite things to say here at Prose and Ivy is, “We’ll Always Have Pittsburgh”. Given our performance in the…
Tro-Lou-Lou!

last week, the Cubs’ bats woke up in the third game of the
series against the Mets, swept the NL Central rival Milwaukee
Brewers and are…

Posted: March 1, 2010 in DailiesTags: 2010, Chicago Cubs, Cubs, Dempster, Hendry, Lilly, Marmol, Piniella, Soriano, Soto, Zambrano
Head Carlos Zambrano and Carlos Marmol. A couple of Carloses (Carlosi?) that we need to worry about in the head category, the mental game. Zambrano had an awful ’09 by Big Z standards. Every from Hendry down to Ronnie Woo…

No Coffee for you Gregg

Did I know much about Gregg before the Cubs signed him? Not really. I knew he looked like a goon. I knew he pitched for the Marlins. I knew that he was coming in to replace a Cubs favorite. I…

lineup. Gregg as our closer. A possibly recently
disgruntled Marmol as our setup guy. More playing time
for Fontenot and a…
