4/15 Dusty Baker's Reds (Harang) @ Cubs (Dempster) 7:05 CSN

REED JOHNSON SINGLE, CEMENT HIM in 2 SPOT PLAYING CF!!!

[Roast]

Someone needs to shorten Pie's swing and quick

 

Someone needs to leave Pie's swing alone and give him two months of starting without being yanked after every 0-for-4.

 

so ship him off to the D-Rays or Royals is what you're saying? Or better yet...Iowa? He doesn't deserve 2 months of sucking. Especially considering how inconsistent this line up can be as it is.

 

Actually, there's zero reason that Cubs shouldn't be able to handle Pie's development, even if it basically takes an entire season to figure out whether or not he can click. A player with as much potential as Pie has, as young as he is, as much as he's shown in the minors and that he may be able to anchor the outfield for the next decade+, he needs to be given the room to develop. If the Cubs wised up, it wouldn't be a huge deal to leave a lineup slot to do that...the probem is, they have another hole at SS that they refuse to fix, and instead of trying to fix that probelm, they're gonna jerk around Pie instead.

Even with theriot sucking like crazy...our offense is pretty potent. Between Lee, Ramirez, Fukudome, Soriano (if he's healthy), and even Soto they have plenty of firepower that they can have one struggling young guy in there while he figures it out.

How do you know he'll suck if he plays for two months straight?

 

And with his defense, yeah, I'd be tempted to leave him in even if he did.

[Brian]

i'm going to sacrifice a goat in honor of Reed's sole patch tonight.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

The more Reed hits, the more likely Pie sits.

[Mizzou]

Just got home... how did Sori get hurt? Any update as far as how long he'll be out?

[manbearcub]

Why is Fontenot bunting?

[Brian]

Just got home... how did Sori get hurt? Any update as far as how long he'll be out?

 

 

imagine the most ridiculous way possible... that's it.

[Roast]

That was close, it sounds like.

[SouthSideRyan]

Soriano hurt himself because of Felix Pie.

[Mizzou]

The more Reed hits, the more likely Pie sits.

Considering Pie's 0-4 with 3 more K's... I'm becoming more and more convinced that that's a good thing.

[E.J.]

Too much sex with Flame's mom.

he got hurt making his hop, i kid you not.

Tripped over Dusty Baker's toothpick?

[Roast]

He hurt himself coming down from that ridiculous hop he does before every catch. Last out of the top of the first, he strained his calf.

 

 

Seriously.

I'd love to assure you that he did not injure himself hopping before he caught a fly ball. :banghead:

Dayumm, Flame's mom is getting it tonight

 

 

(not that that's different from any other night)

He hurt himself doing his stupid hop while he was catching a routine pop fly. Strained calf muscle is the diagnosis.

[Andy]

In case you didn't know, Mizzou, Soriano got hurt doing his hop.

[Outshined_One]

He hurt himself coming down from that ridiculous hop he does before every catch. Last out of the top of the first, he strained his calf.

 

 

Seriously.

 

Something strangely poetic about that.

[BigSlick]

Its tough, because if you said you wanted to stick by Pie in the off-season this is where you gotta swear by it. He's looking about as bad as you can look as a major league player, and if you really want to stick by him and want him to develop, nows the time to keep him in.

[Roast]

HOLY %^&* $%^&* HE GRITTED THAT MOFO OUT!

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Theriot bomb!

[SouthSideRyan]

And if you want to be a reactionary that makes judgments based on 25 PAs, now's the time to go with proven mediocrity Reed Johnson!

Cubs.com says he's day-to-day.

 

Theriot WTH?
