It's one thing to give up home runs to Dunn, Griffey, and Kearns. But giving up two home runs to Bronson Arroyo is unacceptable.

 

Why do say it's unacceptable ? You've obviiously accepted it, since you're still here watching him pitch, no?

 

Because you shouldn't give up two home runs to a guy that has a career .102 BA with 34 SO in 59 AB's.

 

And I'm not watching the game to see Rusch pitch. My only hope for Gopher Ball Glendon is that he gives the Cubs a chance to win. I watch the games for the team, not just one player.

 

I'm just weary of all the hyperole. When you've completely boycotted the team because they have such a bad player, then come back and tell me that it's unacceptable. Meantime, sit back and admit that you've accepted it.

I haven't boycotted the team. I think Rusch giving up two HR's to a horrible hitting pitcher is unacceptable. By unacceptable I mean he needs to pitch a lot better than that, not that I refuse to accept that he actually gave up the homeruns. If the Cubs managed to get Barry Bonds I wouldn't boycott their games. I HATE Barry Bonds, but would still watch the games because it's the Cubs.

... and hopefully that's the start of Ramirez busting out of his early April funk. :)

lol the announcers for Pittsburg just said something about "getting into our bulpen". They dont realize our bulpen is pretty good I guess. Why did Murton just watch that pitch go by without having the bat up?
