9/9 Cubs (Trachsel) @ Pirates (Morris) 12:35:CSN/WGN

[TruffleShuffle]

Why did we downgrade our rotation to rely on Steve Trachsel every 5th day during the last month of the season when we are attempting to make the playoffs? This makes ZERO sense!!

 

80% of jim hendry's moves make zero sense. God i hope that a-hole is fired.

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

screw you pirates. play like this against the brewers and cardinals and maybe you wouldn't be in last place every freaking year.

 

Not last year thanks to the Cubs.

it's the pathetic cubs' fault, not the pirates'.

 

notice how their cf ran toward the ball as opposed to away from it? interesting.

[Mizzou]

6 runs in two innings? Christ.

Yeah one time in the last 10 years. Way to go Pirates.

True, but if DLEE, Sori, Ram and Z just stepped it up we'd be running away with this division.

all credit goes to the Cubs on that one.

Maybe because their centerfielder is a centerfielder. We have a right fielder there. One who doesn't hit. Because if Pie plays everyday he would blow up.

Kevin Hart in to pitch

[abuck1220]

definitely not the 3/4 starter we thought we were getting...

[illiniguy]

you can tell if you gave bob a beer he would tell you how much Tracshel sucks.

[Outshined_One]

If Lou wouldn't stop putting useless junk in the starting lineup at C, CF, and RF, we'd be better off.

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

So who will you pull for......the Cards or the Brewers?

[IowaCubsFan]

The Cubs want to make sure they don't lose a month of vacation this year by backing into the playoffs, so they're just removing all doubt in the playoff picture and playing like absolute dogcrap.

[illiniguy]

The Brewers and it isn't even close.

[Schwarber Fan]

LaRoche strikes out swinging

[Mizzou]

I think you should post that in the Transactions thread too, no sense in only posting it in two threads just to get a rise out of people.

Kendall's done well. Who else plays CF? Pie has been clueless at the plate.

Bautista singled to CF

So has Jones. Pie can field and at some point he has to learn to hit at the big league level.

Pearce flied out to deep LF

Certainly. But as the big guys are struggling I think it's a good idea to do what's best to help the team win (actually, I'd do that even if they weren't struggling). Starting Tracshel over Marshall isn't good.

Look at his numbers bro, he's a third starter.

 

He wouldn't be the third starter in Tennessee for god's sake.
