I wouldn't mind if the Sox/Yanks were in a penant race, BUT IT'S APRIL.

Miles grounded out to short, 6-3

I'm pretty sure Jones is a better hitter then Pie, but ok?

 

Completely false.

 

That makes a lot of sense.

 

See the post right below this yours. Not to mention that Pie gets amazing reads on balls and has a superb throwing arm; two things that Jones does not have.

 

I don't know why people are calling for Pie and Murton's heads. It really makes little sense.

Please don't tell me that you're getting the Cubs game.

[CubsWin]

So were gunna win this one and get our hopes up..then of course the trend will go on where well lose tomorrow,then win,then lose..and keep up the 3 and 4 games back of .500...this sucks

The Cubs are beating the Cardinals 6-0 in the 9th. Marquis throws 7 shutout innings against his old team and this sucks? :shock:

This is about hitting not defense. You can't say that Pie is a better hitter right now than Jones because it just isn't true. The future is another thing altogether. Pie still needs to work on his hitting; he's not a finished product!

Only 9? You're too pessimistic.

I don't understand why people are calling for Murton's head, but there were serious questions if Pie could hit ML pitching all offseason. So far, he hasn't done anything to change those question marks, and people wonder if he's really ready. He should be better than Jones eventually, but I doubt he will be this year.

As stated before, Pie projects to have almost an identical OPS to Jacque Jones this year.

Yay, Cubs win a game that Rich Hill didn't start!
