Fonz say AAAYYYY!!

[CDBears1259]

Froeming wanted to punch Sori out.

[CubmanPi]

I like using Izturis here. This way, he doesn't have an opportunity to screw up later.

I bet it was a double switch and Izturis stays in the game.

 

I didn't know that.

 

Damn...

Emphasis added. Just cynicism speaking.

 

And WOOHOOO SORI!!

I'm a bit late, but yay Petrick!

Pie is not ready for the big leagues.

 

Matt Murton is.

 

I say we do nothing about it.

 

let me know when murton can play centerfield

 

How about now? I've got no problem at all with him in CF as an experiment. It literally can't be as bad as having our CF go 7 for 48. Murton's offense is his value.

 

Or how about we put Soriano back in CF and play Matt at his position?

[Andy]

How is he hitting .345 or whatever? Every time I see him he's grounding Pierres or striking out looking.

[TruffleShuffle]

call the fire department, cause here comes the gasoline

Soriano has been playing lights out in LF... why dont we just leave him there.

 

Other than dropping Jones. This roster is set.

Murton would be a joke in CF. And as you've already said, the Cubs aren't going anywhere this year - being as that's the case, there's no reason not to keep Pie with the big club and let him learn against big league pitching. What they should do, though, is call up Murton, play him in RF and have Floyd sit more.

[weis21]

seriously, what situation are we going to use eyre other that a complete blowout? I'm all for not using him, but do something bc he's taking up a roster spot!

[TruffleShuffle]

Wuertz in

 

ah good, i thought we were giving up (i.e., putting in Eyre)

[illiniguy]

nice job michael.

[98navigator]

damnit. Wuertz aggravates me when he walks the first batter.

 

 

MENCH WALKED?! It's his first non IBB of the year

[TruffleShuffle]

wtg wuertz.
