5/27 - Cubs (Hill) @ Dodgers (Wolf) 3:10 CST WGN

[Yeti]

with our pen, im not sure i like this move

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Sucks for Hill, he was dealing and was under 70 pitches

[Brian]

i hope this works out

[imb]

So Hill dominates for 6 innings, throws 66 pitches, and we're taking him out to get daryle ward and at-bat with 2 outs?

 

Stupid.

[Keener98]

Hill out Ward PH come on Ward Wow Hill only at 66 pitches and taking him out wow

[killthegoat06]

only 66 pitches by hill.

[Lockes Eye Scar]

this is just a shitty situation. sigh

[PrimeTime]

Shouldve left Hill in..comeon a 2 out hit..Thats really unlikely

[RichHillIsABeast]

Wow. Just wow. I know our offense is starving, but geez.

[E.J.]

This will definitely come back to bite us in the butt. Should have left Hill in.

You have to score to win. We haven't looked good offensively. It's a bad situation to be in, but I don't mind the move.

[killthegoat06]

Well hit by Ward. Nice catch by Kent. Ho hum.

[Yeti]

:wall:

With out bp situation its very very risky. If we lose this game, its on Lous ass.

[genbar]

Game Over!

[E.J.]

[PrimeTime]

Thats why Hill shouldv e been left in..2 outs...BAd Lou

Who cares when he pitches? All that matters is what situation he comes in, and Lou is showing that he is willing to bring Wuertz in for close games (as he should be).

you also have to prevent runs. hill is more likely to do that today than the bullpen.

 

plus, if we don't score, and go to extras, the good pitchers in the pen can go for a while.

 

at least guzman and marmol have been starters recently. Ugh.

 

lou has no clue on managing a bullpen or even a starting staff. Terrible.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 18-7 when they get a quality start.... 4-18 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Keener98]

Im callin a solo shot and we lose this game 1-0

[Yeti]

:wall:

i just love this smiley, this being a Cubs board, i'm suprised i dont see it more often

[inari]

Uh, as sad as I am that Hill was brought out that was the right move. Runs are not easy to come by today and we absolutely need them.
