Safe to say I am earning my 136 million

again... did you just come on from the clubhouse?

[Rob]

my god the cubs suck. all they can hit is solo shots.

Soriano's on fire, and Pie doesn't even have any RBIs to show for it. Send him back down.

 

Anybody feel like calculating Soriano's #'s with Pie on the big league squad?

 

.800 42 home runs 70 rbi .800 on base .24000 slugging.

 

roughly.

 

Sounds about right.

 

Pie came up April 17th, went down May 10th, and came back up June 3rd... anybody feel like doing the math, or should we wait for a sportswriter to put it together for an article?

 

I will-give me a minute on that.

 

Bless your heart, sir.

 

I did take a preliminary look and saw that of Soriano's six dingers going in to tonight, 4 were hit with Pie on the roster. Of the two that happened when Pie wasn't around, one happened the day after he left (call it the hangover effect) and the other happened the day before he came back (giddy with anticipation)

Soriano with Pie

Note-the OBP is only hits+walks. I didn't include HBP or drop sacs if he has any during those times.

 

 

86 AB's, .430/.443/.837

 

 

Wow.

[Lockes Eye Scar]

this is one time I'd like for the cobs to go up there hacking.

Wow.

Am I safe to assume this also includes tonight?

Same.

 

Quick outs people!

Wow.

 

Good lord. I knew it would be high, but jeez. I don't think we can ever send Pie down again.

 

Cheers on the legwork, by the way.

Yes, it does.

Definitely. Good chance of getting the game in anyway, but I would feel much better if the delay came after 5 full innings were done, and I think betting half an inning of offense that the 4-run lead will hold is pretty safe.

[98navigator]

wow, Izturis sneaks a ball down the LF line for a double

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Izturis leads off with a single.

[da bears]

Dammit dont tempt fate, ground into a double play Marshall.

[rynefan]

Oooh, Fons could be up with someone on

Eh. Not bad.

 

Thanks for the numbers.

 

Iztursucksreallybad with a leadoff double :shock:

[Rob]

Marshall really needs to try and draw a walk. Otherwise they'll just intentionally walk Sori.

[rynefan]

That is a totally unflattering photo of Marshall they keep showing on the jumbo screen

Are they showing the half baked pic?

[98navigator]

double

[UMFan83]

SORI! SORI! SORI! SORI! At this pace he might have 2 more ABs after this one

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

We need to add this run to the tally.

[98navigator]

Nice sacrifice by Sean. Izzy at 3b 1 down

[rynefan]

Yeah, that's the one. It's pretty scary when it's like two stories high.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

BTW, I had forgotten how annoying Chip was until tonight.

 

Thank Kent for Len.

[da bears]

Come on Soriano.

[CubmanPi]

Crap. 1st base open. IBB?
