[USSoccer]

Wow..

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Encarnacion is a bonehead!

[David]

How awesome was that?

[snoodmonger]

Murton is the man.

[YearofDaCubs]

Kudos to Hendry for acquiring Murton in the Nomar trade. He does deserve credit for that.

[srbin84]

I saw the Hrabosky call of that mothers day game a couple years ago where marrero got hurt in the OF and he said that Chip Caray was holding up a sign he made that said "This is payback for Mueller!"

[LoneStarCubFan]

Horrible fundamentals. You have to hit the cutoff man...

i didn't know murton had that kind of arm.

[CubinNY]

So far the breaks are going the Cubs way.

 

I wonder how the best fans in baseball are going to treat Juan when he gets back to St. Louis.

[Chris]

Murton is the coolest

[Fro]

Lee barely had to move his glove on the hop... what a throw.

[Brendan]

Horrible fundamentals. You have to hit the cutoff man...

 

bench him

[USSoccer]

i didn't know murton had that kind of arm.

 

I think the wind helped it a little, but it was dead on target.

[ToupeeOnFire]

Awesome Matt Murt~!

 

For a second there I thought that ball was going to end up on Banks Boulevard (cue Joe Morgan :wink:).

[rawaction]

Darn. Wish I could see the game. You would think Murton at his size would have an arm, though. Maybe he can play RF?

[USSoccer]

Encarnacion SUCKS.

[Butterscup1679666578]

Wow, Encarnacion is so bad.

[KatJ]

i didn't know murton had that kind of arm.

 

ONE day, Dusty. ONE day and he would have been a ROY candidate. :cry: You suck.

[CubinNY]

I wonder how the best fans in baseball are going to treat Juan when he gets back to St. Louis.

[snoodmonger]

Hrabosky: Maddux is difficult to run against.

 

Isn't that completely untrue? I thought he was rather easy to run against.

 

Yeah, he has said many times he doesn't really care about the baserunners and he throws really slow.

 

That's what I though. and I recalled being repeatedly irritated by runners going wild on Maddux last year.

 

But then Hrabosky said that, and I started questioning myself. Because of Hrabosky. How dumb is that?

[Andy]

Good hustle by Ronny! I love the way the Cubs are playing right now.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Wow...Encarnacion should be an all-star this year!

[Derwood]

correction, 7-3 double play. My bad
