redsox Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 Looks like I get to make the 1000th post in this thread. :smile: Anyway, I like these in-game updates. They are very well done - but I guess there is no surprise there. Too bad to see DeRosa being sent down. I had made a bold prediction about him hitting over .300 rest of the way (after he came back from his injury). Looks like that may not happen. Anyway, take care bud.

I remember that prediction, V, and DeRosa DID start off pretty decent right after he came off the DL. He slid again, and pretty much stayed there. Looks like I'll be platooning Fontenot and Cedeno for awhile now, at least until this outfield gets solid enough to move Soriano back to 2B.

Maestro23 Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 Good luck with those moves JR. *Pie is having a good day against the Crew today though. 3-5, 3-run HR, single, double Luckily the game is on WGN today.

Yeah, I'm lucky enough to work at home and I've had the game on. I just walked in the room when he hit the blast to right center. Hardy is having a nightmare game. He should have home today. :) Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/28149-beyond-the-ivy-~-a-2007-chicago-cubs-dynasty/page/41/#findComment-421232 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mav3rek Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 I figured out why DeRosa is struggling so much and why he's been injured, he's thinking about his wife, and wants to spend more time with her.... http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y200/Whit...illerDeRosa.jpg lol. Shame to see Pie go, hopefully 2B will get straightened out for you. It's been a pitfall for me in my Padres dynasty also.

I'd be on the DL as much as possible if I was him. :rocklicker: Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/28149-beyond-the-ivy-~-a-2007-chicago-cubs-dynasty/page/41/#findComment-421240 Share on other sites More sharing options...
philliesphan18 Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 Do you have anyone productive at SS in the minors? If so you could move Izturis/that person to second and have the other start at short. Anyhow, one way or another I hope your secondbase woes are solved.

Anyhow, one way or another I hope your secondbase woes are solved. Not really, but that has crossed my mind. Izturis has been solid all year really, a great contact guy. If something gels, I wouldn't be opposed to making that move.

With the money they spent in the offseason, and getting Lou 'the motivator', I honestly didn't think they would be having problems like they are having. But hey, we might get to see 'these' Cubs in the post season. :) Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/28149-beyond-the-ivy-~-a-2007-chicago-cubs-dynasty/page/41/#findComment-421389 Share on other sites More sharing options...
