4-5 Cubs (Rusch) v. Reds (Arroyo) 11:35 CT ESPN

[moorecg]

Barrett is not having a good day huh?

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

you fricking moron barrett

[Blueheart05]

I have a feeling that Eyre is going to be a Baker favorite this year. I hope Dusty doesn't burn him out.

 

He's used to throwing alot. Of course, if Williamson was effective Eyre wouldn't have to keep coming in to rescue the team.

 

UGH, Freel at 3B because of Barrett's throwing error.

[ToupeeOnFire]

Barrett. @#$@#$!#$% :x :x :x

[Fred Hornkohl]

Lopez grounded out to short, 6-3, Freel scored

[Blueheart05]

Freel steals a run. That was youth...

[Derwood]

gah

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

what the f&*k

[Vinestal]

Well I think that will do us in. That was just crappy defense all the way around.

[C.C.]

Wasn't Barrett Defense supposed to be improved?

[soccer10k]

Lopez grounded out to short, 6-3, Freel scored

 

crap

[Blueheart05]

Cedeno didn't look him back long enough.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Shutup Stone and Phillips. We just saw the replay, Freel almost went all the way back to the base and had his weight on the other foot.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

wake the F up Barrett. position yourself.

[RynoRules]

Bone head move my Ronny. Gotta look him back. Rookie error. Pressure situation. Gotta live with it, I guess. Edited April 5, 2006 by RynoRules

hooray for benching freel on my fantasy team

[Mizzou]

God I love Ryan Freel... but hate him right now.

[Fro]

This is where you walk Griffey and make the Reds pull Coffey... he's their best reliever. Edited April 5, 2006 by Fro

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

awesome. wonderful. fantastic.

[rawaction]

I don't pitch to Lopez there.

[LoneStarCubFan]

Bone head move my Ronny.

 

Don't blame Cedeno. Freel shouldn't have been at third in the first place.

 

Of course this probably means Neifi starts on Friday.

Cedeno definitely could have looked him back a bit longer, but why was Barrett not in position to block the plate? Especially after making a bad throw to allow the runner to advance to 3b in the first place.

[David]

Geez, what a crappy throw.

 

STOP THROWING BARRETT TO THE WOLVES!!!111!!

[soapy]

hooray for benching freel on my fantasy team

 

Gotcha beat. I cut him after he didn't play Monday and I read he wasn't going to be a starter.

 

 

Bow down, for I am soapy, lord of the idiots.
