Short leash for Hill?

[abuck1220]

Perez is hitting.

 

well, he's standing there holding a bat...don't know if i'd call it hitting.

 

i would have let hill bat. hope is slim for this game, and this bullpen is going to get killed by june. and what an expensive bullpen it is.

[abuck1220]

nothing pisses me off more than a bunch of idiots who have seen a guy pitch four innings in their lives making bold expert declarations about his future

 

*raises hand*

 

His FB has been up, it ain't good enough to be up.

Unless it's way up.

 

I'm just generally in too lousy a mood to deal with the idiots tonight. I'm about to go on a banning rampage on some pompous clowns. srbin and oldcubsfan would be first on the list.

 

His FB doesn't look the same as it did when I seen him at Lansing.

 

I talked to a scout today who said similar things about J. Williams in '03 compared to now as far as missing the pop on the FB.

I believe that about Williams. He's just not the same pitcher.

 

Disappointed to hear you say that about Hill. I wish I could see the damned game.

 

me too. i've been waiting for hill to get a shot all season, and this is the FIRST game i haven't been able to get w/ the dish.

ah the curse lives - why didn't bynum score?

It was 92-94 and heavy. Poor mechanics combined with no control, to go along with it.

 

You're not missing much when Bynum is the most productive player in the game.

I thought Pierre didn't strike out? Does he limit them to runner on third less than two outs? why didn't bynum score? Anyone?

[UK1679666180]

Pierre takes a called strike 3 with a runner on 3B w/less than 2 outs. It was a ball, but not far enough to where you wouldn't swing w/two strikes.

Bloop hit, fell in-between a couple of players between LF and SS, Bynum was held at 3B.

Different subject, but I probably would have taken Webb at #3 and Tracy at #5 if I had been there on draft day instead of in the hospital.

 

One more thing to be bitter about.

BTW - Corey walked again in the game today and his average is now up to .295 on the season.

corey will never be a great player. I'd rather have corey, nolasco, pinto, and mitre than pierre though.

I'd rather have Corey, Giles, Theriot, Nolasco, Pinto and Mitre than Pierre, Jones, Neifi and Rusch, too.

[abuck1220]

uh oh, a scoreless inning for rusch. see in des moines next week, rich.

Maybe they'll take it as meaning that Rusch is more effective in relief.

 

It's a nice dream, anyway.

hey a hit for aramis. he's off the hook now, right?

[abuck1220]

i'm anticipating lots of posts like this in the next 12 hours.

 

What other pitchers can we bring up? Marmol? Veal? Someone who can get people out? Anybody?

I'm anticipating not reading any of them.

after the marlins 11 run outburst today, the cubs have the worst offense in the NL. the team w/ nearly a 100 mil payroll has a worse offense than the marlins.

 

of course, it's all b/c lee got hurt and has nothing to do w/ the rest of the cubs woeful lineup.

todd greene meet prince fielder - wow!

[Transmogrified Tiger]

I went and played racquetball after the 3rd inning or so, it was really great.

Did someone say Brian Giles in this thread?

 

Don't even get me started. How long is Hendry's extension good for? [-(

he's not fast enough. sorry.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

At least the Lakers lost.

 

I'll be pissed when Rusch is back in the rotation and Hill is in Des Moines next week.

Nope, but I said Mark Bellhorn...

The wagon likes the warm weather.

Yeah, he's on fire this past week. The Pads are playing him a lot lately. I get all the Padres games here, so I get plenty of "The Horn". :D
