Cliff runs like a grandma.

[CubmanPi]

Floyd HR. Put it down.

 

almost

Wind knocked it down.

[USSoccer]

If Cliff Floyd isn't going to give us any SLG%, he shouldn't be playing.

[anabiono]

gosh...this lineup would look 20 times better with the soto inserted

 

:?

That's two groundouts where anybody but Floyd would have beaten the throw to first.

 

Floyd sucks. Murton for starter please.

[soccer10k]

Oh well, still have 9 outs to go.

[C.C.]

We got three more innings here. I still believe we will win this game. I'm just feeling it.

[USSoccer]

Just have to keep holding them. Lee and Aramis will bat at least one more time today.

[E.J.]

Looks like glass joe might be hurt again.

[BleacherBadger]

Anyone else loving the playoff atmosphere?

just like you were feeling a big acquisition at the dealine?!?

 

 

:wink:

[Prior4CyYoung]

well he was out but god even the catchers would have beat that out.

[JimSorgi]

Cliff runs like a grandma.

That's an insult to grandmothers.

[illiniguy]

Lee killed us last inning, but we still have a shot. Pat better keep hitting in Milwaukee.

[RyneSandberg]

Sweet jesus Cliff gets hurt just legging out a grounder?

[soccer10k]

It would be nice to have one guy get on base next inning so the Cubs won't have the 9-spot up to start the eighth.

he won't and you're right, he shouldn't

Good, get Murton in there everyday.

[anabiono]

good news...murton in right...

 

now...bring up pie and platoon jones and murton

 

floyd can just smile on the bench

[Magnetic Curses]

burrell still hasn't gotten out in his life against the cubs.

floyd can just smile on the bench

 

Except it would likely mean Pagan in CF and Jones in RF or one of Jones/Pagan in CF and DeRosa in RF.

[TruffleShuffle]

jock showing more fine CF instincts on that routine fly to center

no, because pie would be brought up...which would mean start pie for the most part and use pagan for rest days and defensive subage

[BleacherBadger]

The Cubs should make Floyd a player-bench coach, just like Coach Lou made Jake Taylor in Major League 2.

ETA: NMV...you're scenario assumes Cliff is on the DL
