Helton struck out swinging

[Fred Hornkohl]

Caroll picked off first base, 1-3

[beersoakedivy]

It's a mute point anyway because Murton will sit today. He had a good game yesterday therefor he will be rewarded with the bench.

 

It's also moot. :wink:

 

 

thanks for the correction....my fault

[Laura]

Best first inning in a while!

Assuming you're rooting for the Cubs to win. :wink:

Mabry struck out swinging

[Fred Hornkohl]

Barrett lined out to center field

[cheapseats]

Len's saying we may see Wade Miller in a few weeks. I don't want to see Wade Miller in a few weeks. He's not a part of the future, and we're 21 games below .500. I'd much rather see Guzman or Mateo or whomever than Wade Miller.

Holliday walked

[Fred Hornkohl]

Hawpe flied out to left center field , Holliday to second

[YearofDaCubs]

Pierre's arm is terrible.

[bcruise]

Whew, what a gun.

[soccer10k]

Sorry Bob, you're wrong. The reason Holliday can do that is because he knows Pierre has no arm whatsoever.

[NorthsideAvenger]

Len's saying we may see Wade Miller in a few weeks. I don't want to see Wade Miller in a few weeks. He's not a part of the future, and we're 21 games below .500. I'd much rather see Guzman or Mateo or whomever than Wade Miller.

 

Agreed. If he was healthy (and his stuff was returned), and perhaps the Cubs were closer to .500, then yeah, bring Miller up. But since at least memory, his stuff was still mediocrelly average, then let him stay in the minors and let him go in the offseason.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Spilborghs singled to center field , Holliday scored

[cheapseats]

Matt Holliday tags up and goes from first to second on a fly ball to center.

 

And Holliday promptly scores on a single.

 

If defense is so important to Hendry, how does he explain away runs that Pierre's arm has cost the Cubs?
