Yeah, Scott Moore is not a team player. He's all about himself. He knows what the Cubs' are going for but he still tries to get hits and home runs.
At least his wasn't a grand slam like Lee hit last night. The Cubs were able to overcome it and retake 3rd place.

 

True "All About Me" Lee rightfully sat today, but somehow talked himself into the game and got a hit, what a jerk.

 

Fortunately, Chris Duffy is even less of a team player.

The Cubs current run to the Fecal World Series is legendary.

 

Dusty is really showing how much he wants it. Frankly, I am shocked he is still putting Murton out there every three days a week.

 

Pagan is the man to take them all the way to the top. Watch out KC we're coming for you.

A serious question, they got rid of the alternating leagues get the #1 pick right? IIRC, back when Detroit had 121 losses they still only got the #2 pick over all because it was the NL's turn to get the #1 pick.

Yes; in fact, that very question was raised today in another thread. I believe it ended around 2004 or so. If the Cubs win the Fecal League they get the first pick. :D

No more Rich Hill. He's killing us.

 

14-3 in our last 17. Hill started all 3 games in the right-hand column.

 

We can't keep running him out there if his heart isn't in it. The rest of the team is busting tail to pull it out, and Hill is thinking he's Amanda Wurlitzer.

Yeah, we need the old Rich Hill from last year and the first time up this year. He'd get with the program. :D

 

He'd also get a permanent ticket to Iowa :x

And then in the off-season he would have been traded to Florida (along with Marshall or Guzman) for a 32 year old Neifi clone who, because he has some speed and can "catch the ball," Hendry would have billed as the second coming and immediately signed to a 3-year, $15 million contract with a full no-trade clause.

Still 3 back of KC? grrr I thought for sure the lineup that Dusty ran out there yesterday could net us another loss. Things are bunched really tight as well we could easily drop in the standing fast. Why cant Hill come up with a lower back strain or forarm cramp Jeez!
