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

Obviously Prior is hurt - but I'm starting to see why he was mad and took his sweet time reporting to camp. Wouldn't anyone be pissed if they lost their job to this guy? Prior could throw left handed and possibly be better.

 

prior reported late?

 

No, he didn't. He reported on time, which to some people on this board, is late.

 

he just took his full time to report, that'sl all

[DiamondMind]

murton is taking some UGLY routes to the ball today.

 

How about Murton in LF, Pie in CF, Soriano in RF?

 

I think you have to keep Soriano in CF. If anything put Pie in RF and Murton/Floyd in LF.

 

isn't putting Pie in RF failing to cash in on his defensive skills?

 

Not in my opinion. He has arguably the most accurate arm (I was going to say strongest, but Soriano would compete for that), and Soriano can shade to left to help out Murton or Floyd.

He took his allotted *72* hours to report - can you imagine?! Thank God we have Paul Sullivan to tell us these things.

Wow. How Miller got out of that inning only allowing 1 run I'll never know.

 

he didn't allow any.

 

Oops. It seemed like he allowed a run.

Some prefer him to report earlier.

[Magnetic Curses]

why are they swinging at all?

 

They must be channeling Gary Hughes.

 

Edit: Er, Gene Clines. Not sure what I was thinking.

 

no, gary hughes works, too.

Pirates lead the Red Birds 6 - 1 in the top of the ninth.

 

At what point do I start to get worried that the Pirates keep winning as opposed to being jubilant that they're beating the Cardinals.

 

Probably never.

In reference to the Pujols suckage so far, that's what happens when you get past your prime years!!!!! :D

 

But on a serious note, apparently he has been having trouble seeing the ball the way he's accustomed to. May need Lasik.

happy b-day Bruce!!

I don't care if I'm the ONLY person on this board with this opinion. He took the full allotted time to report, when his JOB WAS ON THE LINE. Unprofessional, and I dont care what you guys think about it. If I'm trying to impress my superior, I show up early.

I don't see the word 'late' anywhere in my post. I resent the inference!

 

you seriously resent the inference?
