Does anybody else not like Neal Cotts?

[Bote McBoteface]

It made me sick when Len and Bob were talking about how he hadn't been charged with an ER yet this season a while back. Seems like all he ever does is walk people =/

[Flames24Rulz]

He walks way too many batters. And for a lefty, he sure sucks against left-handed hitters.

 

But I'm more upset with many other pitchers in the pen, rather than Cotts.

[Omar]

Cotts should be the least of our worries. Ohman, Eyre, Howry, and maybe even Wuertz are ones you should bite your nails over --- and thats just the Bullpen.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

his curly mullet scares me

[soccer10k]

I have no problems with Cotts. He's pitched well for us so far this year and hopefully he can keep it up.

Wuertz?!?! You have to be kidding. :shock:

[Banedon]

I didn't like Cotts when we got him, but he's grown on me. I'm not thrilled with the walks, but it hasn't hurt him so far.

Besides last night he's been fine.

[Pinktermite]

Collectively, if these guys don't stop walking people with games close and on the line, then it will likely spell doom for the Cubs. Lou knows this, and that's why I think you'll soon see two or three new guys down there...and more later until we find guys who throw strikes.

Where did he say Wuertz?

Omar said Wuertz

 

I don't like Neal Cotts because he gave me a bad seller review on eBay after the ceramic dalmation I sent him got broken in the mail :(

[Ding Dong Johnson]

we're listening to Omar now?

[Banedon]

Besides the final score and Rich Hills pitching line, I have no idea what happened last night...way too late.

I fell asleep listening to Ron Darling tell Keith Hernandez the benefits of pitching limp wristed. I remember some futile swings and what looked to be the proverbial "pitcher fighting himself" outing from Hill. But that's about it.

 

Oh, and Ramirez making some nice plays.

Why? He's pitched just as well (or as poorly, depending on how you want to look at it) as

[biittner77]

Cotts still has a White Sox stink about him that makes him unpalatable.

[killthegoat06]

We have more important bullpen problems.

[NCCubFan]

Cotts still has a White Sox stink about him that makes him unpalatable.

So do Howry and Eyre.

 

Oh, wait; they're unpalatable anyway.

[mg420]

what makes it even worse is that aardsma is the sox's best reliever so far this year. it would have been nice to have aardsma to take the closers role right now.

:D

[TakeMeToManos]

Yeah Aardsma has been lights out this year.

[killthegoat06]

I enjoyed us beating him up this weekend.

I quite enjoyed it also.

Awful Aardsma and crappy Cotts. Both gave up grand slams to ther old teams. Now, that indeed was a fair trade!

[Soriano12]

I kept telling Sox fans I know it was only a matter of time before Aardsma imploded.
