3/24 ST: Rangers (K. Gabbard) @ Cobs (Dempster)

[BeerHere]

Nice patience by Cedeno out of the leadoff spot. 2 ABs, 2 pitches.

 

3 outs..

 

a lot of things make me question ronny's baseball iq

 

+1

 

But to his credit, he's probably trying to impress his manager (i.e. he's pressing)

[C.C.]

Dempster sucks.

[TruffleShuffle]

salty is going to beaten out by gerald laird? the rangers are idiots.

[Roast]

DeRosa is hammering the ball today. That sharp liner was caught at third though. About took off the 3bmans arm.

[TruffleShuffle]

man soto is struggling right now

Heres an update on Prior since they just mentioned him.

 

According to the North County Times, Mark Prior threw a bunch of nasty curveballs during a 50-pitch bullpen session Saturday.

Yeah, I'm with you here. Regardless of how much people like to bash him - I love Prior.

[Roast]

OH, it's going to be a good "reading book" Haha, as opposed to a good watching book?

[Roast]

Yuck Tie game.

[TruffleShuffle]

dempster is a pinata

[Roast]

It sounds like Ron and Billy are having an old family reunion

[Roast]

Demps walks the bases full. Welcome our #3 pitcher.

 

Lou coming to the mound.

[Roast]

Marmol coming in to replace dempster.

[Roast]

Marmol K's him.

 

God marmol is awesome.

At this point, I much rather pencil Lieber as the #3 and Dempster back in the pen. But seeing as Piniella has already announced his rotation.

 

People talk about the Cubs not having a true #2---for which I believe Lilly is a TRUE #2---the Cubs really don't have a #3. Dempster/Hill/Marquis/Lieber all are 4/5. Hill is the closest to bein a 3, but he struggles this spring, makes him a back end pitcher.

[TruffleShuffle]

hill is better than a #3, based on last year's numbers. the cubs were dumb enough to try to make him pitch with a different delivery, though, so now he's probably screwed up.

 

dempster is going to be in trouble ALL the time. this is going to be a lot of fun, watching him.

[Roast]

LIX rips one down the 1b line for a double.

[Roast]

McGehee bounces it over the pitcher, Lix to third, McGehee out at 1st.
