Lou is so impatient he's probably already tempted to write Johnson on the lineup card but he already wrote Theriot on every single card for the whole year.

 

PIE NEEDS TIME TO ADJUST, I'm not worried at all.

Just so I'm in on the memo - is Theriot now the whipping boy no matter what he does and no matter what other people do?

 

I need to be up on these things, and following Badger basketball has gotten me thrown off my game. I need to know who to hate on this year.

 

Theriot is the brightest example of Cubs management incompetence. He's a horrible SS, whom, 2 years ago, people were wondering if he had enough to be a competent utility man, and now he's the everyday leadoff man. He fills the position that most needed replacement going into the season, and management did nothing.

 

Pitchers are just going to throw him strike after strike because he's not a threat to do anything with most pitches.

 

Through no fault of his own, he's the current symbol for all that has ailed the Cubs of the Andy/Hendry ERA.

 

What would you have done to improve the situation? Trade 5 or 6 players for Roberts? Trade for Greene who has a worse OBP than Theroit? Something else?

Rookie mistake dome. They would be loaded right now. Fuku.

 

 

He's not a rookie. He played professionaly in Japan. He knows better.

 

It was bad luck, had the ball not hit Soto he would've had 3rd and we only would've needed a sac fly.

Dang he wasn't Corey he was Pierre

 

Can't be, he didn't ground into a 4-3.

Greene's SLG and Defense would be an upgrade over Theriot.

He did though...

 

Ack. For some reason I thought he was talking about Fukudome and his baserunning error.
