CSN and Dempster Say Dempster in Rotation; CSN Backtracks

[Omar]

My confidence in Lou has been exponentially decaying since day 1.

[Soul]

Hahaha, even Dusty never pulled anything like this.

 

Dusty never tried anything. At all. Even when on pace to lose 100 games, he tried nothing.

[Flames24Rulz]

Man, this is really messed up. I remember how awful Dempster was in the rotation in 2005. What exactly does Lou think will make that change now?

 

I'm going to guess closer by committee with Howry, Wuertz, and Guzman...

[Omar]

Closer by Committee = we have no closer.

I don't know. I was originally thinking they might bring up Marshall, or perhaps try Marmol @ 5th starter for the short-term and use Guzman to shore things up while they decided what to do about Eyre.

 

But that's not it at all. Lou is apparently thinking he can tap into Dempster's past starter experience, but I don't think his arm is conditioned for that any more.

 

Lou's definitely not afraid of taking a big gamble, I'll say that much at least.

[treebird]

it's okay guys, i'm sure this is still just lou messing with people

 

 

 

jkjk everyone has to admit that he's a moron now

[CubColtPacer]

Um, wow. This has a chance of working out, but that doesn't make it a good move. It looks like Lou's insistence on tinkering with everything this year has in this instance interfered with the good of the team. I don't like this move whatsoever.

AYE!

[TB_11]

Lou has shown he doesn't know how to handle a bullpen during games, and now he's showing he doesn't know how to handle a bullpen between games either.

[ctcf]

Lou is easily the most entertaining manager in recent memory.

[Soul]

it's okay guys, i'm sure this is still just lou messing with people

AYE!

 

I'd still rather have this than a do-nothing manager like Dusty. But I admit, this is a big-time ummm.....'non-standard' move :lol:

[Mephistopheles]

what a frickin idiot.

[CUBZ99]

I don't know why everyone is so concerned. The move back to the rotation worked for Smoltz and the Braves. :lol: :lol:

[Jon]

I'm hoping that press conference went like this:

 

NASA Scientist: Ladies and gentlemen and members of the press. I'd like to present the new generation of NASA astronauts: the average American.

 

[Curtain rises to show Homer wearing a "Hail to the Chef" apron and Barney dressed as a golfer]

 

Reporter: Jim Wallace, Associated Press. [clears throat] Is this a joke?

 

NASA Scientist: Far from it, Jim. One of these men will prove space travel is within the reach of the common man.

 

Reporter: Toby Hunter, Minneapolis Star. No really, is this a joke?

 

NASA Scientist: No, Toby, and no more questions about whether this is a joke.

 

[Everyone lowers their hand, dejected]

DE-FAULT! DE-FAULT!

[A New Era]

Ungh. ::pulls gun to head::

 

Boy was I wrong. God Damnit Lou. :lol:

[Soul]

So will Eyre be getting his pink slip, even though none of this affects a lefty pitcher?

 

'Cuz just getting him off this team might actually offset this other crap. He's that bad.

[abuck1220]

ok, so now dempster's back to the pen.

[cubfan1955]

ok, so now dempster's back to the pen.

Last I heard Dempster is the 5th starter. Has Lou changed his mind yet again?

[Guest]

ok, so now dempster's back to the pen.

 

What the hell? CSN now says he's back in the pen...but Dempster was just on CSN saying he was starting.

[Mark_R]

This is one giant cluster****

[ctcf]

ok, so now dempster's back to the pen.

 

What the hell? CSN now says he's back in the pen...but Dempster was just on CSN saying he was starting.

 

Now hes getting close to being the best manager maybe ever.
