5/23: Cubs (Wood) @ Marlins (Olsen) - 6:05 p.m. CT- CSN

Ok, forget Baker and Hendry. Don't you think a player with half a brain cell would see what taking pitches does to a pitcher and a team? Don't you think that the players would see what the walks AGAINST us do to us and see that it's good to be patient?

 

Look at Murton. It's obvious that he's very aware of this philosophy. However, Clines and Baker have been harping on him to be more aggressive, and what has happened?

 

If you want to play for Dusty Baker, you HIT THE BALL.

CUBS are 14-12 when they don't allow any runs is the first inning.... 4-14 when they do

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Outshined_One]

Hey, the no-no is intact.

[Drew Doughty]

Good to see him get out of the inning. Unfortunately at the pace both pitchers are going, the Marlins won't need their bullpen today and we'll have to bring in a reliever in the 6th.

 

well, going by pace alone, I certainly hope Dusty has the brains to have him out by the 5th at the latest.

Claudio Reyna just got taken out of the game in the 17th minute. It looks more precautionary than serious though.

 

Full report: strained right hamstring.
