5/3 Cubs (Maddux) at Arizona (Batista) 8:40PM CSN; XM188

[abuck1220]

how in the hell is that guy on a major league roster. let alone one that has a 100 mil payroll?

[cheapseats]

DP!

 

It was Inneifitable.

[oldstyle81]

Why did Koronka come up so randomly last year? I never quite understood that move...

 

Also, since when is Miguel Batista THIS good?

 

Cy young has possesed his body because he is facing the cubs, it ALWAYS happens, dontcha know?

[dbeider]

Early in the season I was intruiged and excited about this team. Double steals, suicide squeezes, etc.

 

Of late this has been the same crap we've had to watch the last couple years. I don't care if Lee is hurt. Still need to play smart baseball.

 

I thought we were on a roll that when you didn't perform you were sent down or lost your spot ie Williams and Rusch. If that's the case, Jones should ride the pine until he figures out how to not get doubled up off second on a line drive to the friggin outfield.

 

I like lots on this team still, Murton, Cedeno, Barrett, Ramirez, relief, young pitchers, etc. But needless to say again they're frustrating to watch.

 

Jones needs to go.

[frostwyrm]

Neifi rulez the known universe and all others yet to be discovered.

[badger1679666666]

how in the hell is that guy on a major league roster. let alone one that has a 100 mil payroll?

 

Which guy?

 

Neifi? Bynum? Rusch?

[Transmogrified Tiger]

He owns Batista.

[UMFan83]

We have one good starter now, and he pitched in double A last year.

 

pretty stupid comment dontcha think?

 

Nah, I don't think so. Seeing as how I am a Cubs fan, I am allowed to be as irrational as I want. You making a rational comment is stupider

[cheapseats]

Not to step on Fred's territory, but for those of you who like stats, the Cubs are currently 4th in the NL in Neifi Points (a statistic of my own creation calculated by adding sac hits with GIDP)...

 

Colorado      43
San Francisco 41
Pittsburgh    40
CUBS          38

 

I'm laughing out loud. Really. That's what Neifi does.

[scs_paradise]

I hate neifi. they need to rename it GINP, he's earned the title.

[abuck1220]

He owns Batista.

 

in 1994.

[Flames24Rulz]

Which guy?

 

Neifi? Bynum? Rusch?

 

all of the above.

 

Williamson in to pitch.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Williamson in to pitch for the CUBS

[badger1679666666]

Anyone have Neifi DP in the pool?

 

 

Inconceivable!

[Buford T Justice]

So who else called the NEIFI! double play ball?

Jones needs to go.

 

Or else he needs to bat cleanup - he's hitting better than Aram.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Hudson grounded out to first, 3-1

[ToupeeOnFire]

Let's see, the master of the double switch refuses to switch out Neifi. How utterly predictable.

[Flames24Rulz]

two straight 3-1 putouts.

[Buford T Justice]

For some reason you just can't double steal with out Derrek??

Aram will end up hitting over .300, Jones wont

[Fred Hornkohl]

Batista grounded out to first, 3-1

[Buford T Justice]

Nice play by Walker

[Brian]

this is disgusting: 6IP, 7H, 4BB, 1 stinking run

I sure hope so but I have yet to see anything that gives me a lot of confidence that will happen.
