Schmidt is pretty much always a guarantee to destroy the Cubs. Over the past three years:

 

5 GS, 4-0, 38IP, 1.18 ERA, 2 CG, 48/9 K/BB, 2 HR, .157 BAA

One year, I think 2003 or 2004, we beat the Giants 4 out of 6, and the 2 losses were Schmidt games where he did something like 17 IP and 1 run. It was unbelievable.

The Cubs are still playing games ?!?....whodathunkit.

Well there is that game the manager has been playing for almost four years. :evil:

 

I'll watch some of it anyway. I'll probably also miss it next winter.

Hello Fred. I really enjoy some of your worthless stats, others, well, I see why you call them worthless. :lol:

 

You have several batting "on a pace to" stats and I'm wondering if you have any pitching and/or fielding "on a pace to" stats. I think that is where the real difference will show up, because the batting stats don't look that much different.

CUBS are on a pace to commit 103 errors this year..... compared to 100 last year

 

 

Go CUBS !!

 

 

 

Haven't really looked into the pitching stats on that basis. Good idea.

 

edit: you're quite right about the pitching being the difference.........

I think it's awesome. I figure why not, what's it gonna hurt, it's not like we're in a pennant race. Plus, it gives Geovany some playing time.

BTW, looking up at his career stats-Blanco has played at 1st one other career game in 1997 with the Dodgers when he initially came up to the major leagues. His only other positions are 1 game at 3rd in 1997 and 1 game in LF in 1999.

[Brian]

Ball 2 looked pretty good.

Finley walked

Heheh, if it wouldn't block Murton or Pagan, I'd love to see him in LF. It'd be funny.

[Jim Ignatowski]

Fred, I think the fielding really shows up in your pitching stats too.

2005 43 unearned runs

2006 to date 59 unearned runs

[Fred Hornkohl]

Vizquel struck out swinging

That's interesting..... much greater disparity in unearned runs on basically the same number of errors.

[CuseCubFan69]

I'm excited to see Soto hit.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Pierre singled to center field

[Fred Hornkohl]

Theriot grounded out to first, unassisted , Pierre to second

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 19-17 when Pierre steals a base.... 36-63 when he dosen't

 

 

Go CUBS !!
