4/17 Cubs (Miller) vs. Fathers (Maddux), 1:20 pm CT, WGN

[Banedon]

Floyd has hit damn near every ball this year right on the screws..but always right at someone.

 

whereas Murton has popped pitches in his eyes up to 3rd base over and over, and yet the rallying cry is still to bench Floyd

 

Trade Jones and let Murton and Floyd play.

 

Fixed.

 

So long as he's not out there while Murton rots on the bench.

[Brian]

Why is Eyre not coming back after throwing 3 pitches?

 

maybe to save him for tomorrow. Cotts (probably) and Wuertz are a no go tomorrow.

[RichHillIsABeast]

Why is Eyre not coming back after throwing 3 pitches?

 

Because we want to win?

Not the right arguement. If we were WS contenders than it would make sense. Since we are not then it makes no sense to bench Murton.

 

you'll never be a WS contender if you sit the guy who is crushing the ball for the guy who is popping everything up

The more I see the roster of the Cubs, I want Floyd in LF, Soriano in CF, and Pie in RF with Theriot starting at 2B. Sorry, Murton. And see ya, Jacque.

 

I want Theriot at SS and DeRosa at 2B.

Floyd is 34. How much longer is he going to play? Whatcha gonna do with LF then?

Well, I do too. But, I don't think Theriot would have as much success there (and bad fielding can affect hitting) - and I think Cedeno will have an improved 2007 over last year.

[98navigator]

Come on Bob, let's have a clean inning here!

Same here. With Cedeno backing both up and Izturis wearing another uniform.

LF is hardly a tough position to fill.

[otis89]

That's not good.

[Flames24Rulz]

I hate walks.

[98navigator]

ugh, a walk

 

DP please

[Butterscup1679666578]

Arghhh walks.

[Derwood]

I HATE WALKS

[RegulusBlue]

Floyd looked better in that AB than Murton's first pitch pop up

 

Better bench Murton forever, then!

[DiamondMind]

Oh noes.

[Butterscup1679666578]

Son of a...Howry sucks.

[otis89]

Graceful, Branyan.

[E.J.]

Ugh. Come on Howry.

[Andy]

Ugh. PLEASE get outta this Howry

[98navigator]
