4/14 Cubs (Hill) vs. Reds (Arroyo) 12:05 CT CSN

[VanceJergins]

While it's nice that Murton is thought of as the better defender, I sure hope his value to the team isn't as a defensive sub.

 

He doesnt have any XBH, dude. He needs to bust out of his slump before he gets to play again.

Floyd is currently sporting a .746 OPS. So why is our LF of the future glued to the bench? Must be Floyd's gold glove defense.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Hatteberg, pinch hitting for Santos, flied out to left field (foul)

[Bruno7481]

Howry was already warm before Lee broke the game open. There wouldnt have been enough time to get someone else warmed up after that hit by Lee. That is why Howry still came in.

[RichHillIsABeast]

Good play, Murt.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Floyd would have collapsed on top of himself trying to make that catch.

[Schwarber Fan]

Any chance Hill goes the distance today?

 

He was already lifted for a PH.

 

:oops: I knew that

[Fred Hornkohl]

Freel singled to right field , Ross to second

[Lockes Eye Scar]

who's that guy with the red hair?

[BigSlick]

Just imagine if Lee could still hit homeruns...

 

If he gets on at a .500 clip I could care less.

 

Yeah, it seriously looks like he'll be able to hit like he did in 2005 but without at much power. :? Still hugely valuable.

[Post Count Padder]

One down

[RichHillIsABeast]

Well, ST was a mirage. Jones still can't throw.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Howry doing? Get it?

[gflore34]

Hatteberg, pinch hitting for Santos, flied out to left field (foul)

 

What, he swung? Would have liked to see that...

[Schwarber Fan]

Floyd would have collapsed on top of himself trying to make that catch.

 

LOL, he hasn't actually done anything wrong in LF yet, wait for it before you bag on him

 

 

I really don't like Howry

[inari]

We can't blow this... right?

[soccer10k]

Is Howry necessary in a 7-0 game?

 

Yeah, couldn't he have thrown Guzman out there who, along with Dempster, was the only reliever not to throw yesterday.

[Post Count Padder]

Crap. Cmon Howry.

Does the sample size argument only work when it is directed toward Floyd?

[VanceJergins]

Are we going to need Wuertz to put out another fire?

[cubfan1955]

I wonder how Lou would react in the postgame interview if Cincy scores 8 times this inning?

CLIFF FLOYD IS VERY FAT

Atta scoop.

Murton is suppose to be the main LF'er.
