Darn it. I was wrong.

Wonderful. 25 pitches for Capuano. Nice going, Cubs.

 

Hey now, they're making him work more.

 

After 1, he was on pace for a 63-pitch CG.

After 2, he was on pace for a 72-pitch CG.

Now, he's on pace for a 75-pitch CG.

Speaking of progress, Neifi has a better batting average than Ramirez now.

July will be the month where Neifury makes his return.

[Drew Doughty]

Milwaukee's offense sucks. They only have one more hit than we have errors.

[otis89]

Darn it. There goes Capuano's no-hitter.

[Drew Doughty]

Wow, it only took us 10 batters to get our first hit this time.

[otis89]

I'm calling it. Neifi's gonna homer here. :P Edited July 7, 2006 by otis89

Don't you mean the neifury will save Dusty now?

[Drew Doughty]

he's killing two birds with one stone. while watching the cubs, i wish I was the bird.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Poor Neifi. Once Dusty is gone, he will be the puppy who lost his way.

[Beligol]

You know watching Cubs games this year has been a lot like watching a burning building, it is a disaster yet you can't seem to look away.

[Fred Hornkohl]

the neifury will save us here

 

Don't you mean the neifury will save Dusty now?

 

No, Dusty is clearly beyond salvation !!

[otis89]

I'm calling it. Neifi's gonna homer here. :P

 

Fortunately I was wrong.

[Drew Doughty]

didn't you see man? neifi has patience. he got like 14 pitches in that at-bat. dude's starting for 2 years.

[oldstyle81]

why the hell is dust for brains putting perez 2nd?

[Drew Doughty]

why the hell is dust for brains putting perez 2nd?

 

didn't you see man? he saw 10 pitches last time up. next time, he'll swing at the first pitch, but it's all about the averages man. he'll still be averaging 5.5 pitches seen per his last two plate appearances.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Good thing Dusty loaded the lineup with righties. It's paying off like it always does.

Would you rather have Jones in there flailing away?

[Mark Priors Calves]

I know Neifi gets ripped plenty already but my god, he looks terrible everytime he steps into the batters box.
