9/17 - Reds (Arroyo) @ Cubs (Hill) 7:05 CSN

[jjgman21]

perfect timing for the DeRosa 5 for 5 game discussion. much like Lou chose Monroe over Murton there, he sat DeRosa the day after his 5 for 5.

 

 

 

write the veterans name on nine pieces of paper, the young players name on one, put them all into a hat, and pick one.

Horribly managed inning by Lou just horrible. Monroe over Murton? WHY? Leaving JOnes in to face a lefty?WHy?

[Iceblink]

6-0 Brewers going into the bottom of the 9th. The Stros are the only team more impotent with the wood than we are.

[illiniguy]

when does murton turn 30? So he can get a fair shake in this minor league organization.

[SouthSideRyan]

Milwaukee added 1 more in the 9th to ensure that even they couldn't blow it in the 9th.

 

Best part about DeRosa's single, Ramirez will get another AB.

If I remember right, DeRosa had a cortisone shot the next day, so Lou was justified for sitting him.

[Bruno7481]

Coats and Hart should know each other well.

[Iceblink]

Oh noes. Ohman.

[Fred Hornkohl]

I'm following on gamecast and I can tell Soriano is at fault for this based on the reactions in the game thread, but how does one actually get caught in a fielder's choice at third base when there was no force?

 

A fielders choice is not dependent on a force out.

[inari]

See Kendall? It's not that hard to make that throw.

[illiniguy]

look a catcher with an arm, its too bad we didn't have control of him all year long.

[SouthSideRyan]

Buck Coats predictably does nothing.

[Keener98]

Kendall see how to make a throw to first?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Coats, pinch hitting for Stanton, grounded out to the catcher, 2-3

[TMan92]

Zambrano needs to come through again tomorrow. This Reds team just hits the crap out of the ball and it is our luck we face their two best pitchers in the two series we have with them.

 

I saw these two series about a month ago and just saw 2004 in my head.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Hopper grounded out to first, unassisted

[erik316wttn]

Don't we usually hit Harrang pretty well?

[Sosa21MVP]

Lou is simply saving Murton for the gamewinning hit in the 9th inning. :wink:

[Keener98]

Jeff Kepinger Cubs killer lol

[SouthSideRyan]

And on top of all this, McNabb is doing NOTHING for my fantasy team tonight, while Brian Westbrook clinches the victory for my opponent.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Nice effort Monroe.

[SouthSideRyan]

If someone besides Ward pinch hits against a righty, I'm gonna lose it. I'm looking at you Fontenot.

[Mizzou]

Nice effort by Monroe on that play.

[weis21]

Haven't heard alot on Hart, what does he project? Back-end rotation guy? Looks like he has a lot of movement.
