5/6 Cobs (Big Z) @ Dusty Baker's Reds (Harang) 6:10 CSN

[SABR Gamer]

What happened to Meph? I haven't seen him post in a while.

 

Banninated.

 

I'm going to kind of miss him come MLB draft time. The dude was a jerk, but he knew his stuff.

He was so high up his pedestal you couldn't see him through the clouds

 

Am I the only one who misses Meph? He was a jerk, but he was really a smart baseball fan, and if you could just ignore his arrogance he was a good read. I guess I'm just sad to see us lose the mind that figured out EQA.

I kind of miss him too

 

I just feel like the board was more exciting to read when Meph posted here.

there were some fun arguments and i got a lot smarter with him.

 

i found his personality funny

 

although i never got on his bad side

This is exactly how I feel.

 

It seems like a lot of people enjoyed him but a few got on his bad side, I just wish people could just ignore him and not ruin the fun he brought the rest of us. Oh well, too late now. If nsbblol really hurt anyone's feelings they need to man up, it's the internet people...sad.

 

AND he shouldn't be held accountable for his actions outside of the website.

Rick Hill's numbers so far tonight:

 

5 IP, 7 H, 2 ER, 5/1 K/BB, HR

 

Former uber-prospect Jeremy Reed hit the HR.

 

I'm guessing Hill gets another start down in Iowa, then gets called back up.

I like the 5K and only 1BB. Thanks for the update.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Was it just me, or did Pie do a little hop when he caught that?

[Roast]

another quick inning.

 

Z has thrown 113. He has to be done now, right?

[SouthSideRyan]

I wasn't sure I liked Z pitching the 8th, then I answered my phone, talked for a minute and Pie was catching out 3.

 

Thanks Dusty!!

[Andy]

I love Dusty. 8 strong for Z. NOW you've gotta think he's done.

[Soul]

I had almost forgotten what a dominating starting pitching performance looked like.

 

Thanks Z :thumbsup:

[TakeMeOutToTheBallGame]

haha i love playing dustys teams...Z wouldnt have made it past 6 against any other team.

[Careless]

Gameday had Strike 3 to Kosuke as a generous call.

It was on the outside corner, but probably a strike

[illiniguy]

What do you guys think it would take to get Scott Olsen from the Fish?

[illiniguy]

Z is done, but let him hit.

[Keener98]

Hey could somebody fill me in on how Ronny and Felix have done tonight? I see Z has been great.

[JimSorgi]

Isn't he a head case? I'm not sure, maybe I'm just making stuff up.

[Roast]

lol @ hoarse scratchy ron talking about being bald.

[Outshined_One]

Are you working in a firm in Chicago this summer?

 

Sadly, no. I interviewed at a bunch of places, but didn't get anything nailed down.

 

I'm going to be working in-house somewhere. We'll see where.

[Soul]

Len & Bob: Z is done for the night.

 

Woody is warming up.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

A single each, Cedeno's being a two-out, two-RBI single.

I think he has been, but so was Z.

[SouthSideRyan]

I bet the Brennamens are ripping on Dunn for not catching that.

[apete6]

What do you guys think it would take to get Scott Olsen from the Fish?

 

Probably some top prospects (he makes 0 money and is pretty good).

 

We would have to throw in several cases of beer and whiskey for Olsen.

Brennamans

 

2 of them = Brennamen ;)

 

??

[DivineBovine]

It's not even worth it to get hot and bothered by the Cards. There is no way they can keep this up. It's not like 04 because they don't have that kind of talent. They will fall back to earth. If they are still doing this at the All Star break, I'll be shocked.

Yes there is reason. Those guys should have used up a decades worth of goodluck winning it all in '06. Yet, here we are.

 

They kinda had that one coming for all the years they were legit good and lost in the playoffs, I figure.

That's crap. It is supposed to be hard. Good teams lose in the playoffs. A team like there's was a joke.

 

 

Well, once in the playoffs, anything can happen. This years Cards team has no business in the playoffs. If all their journeyman scrubs continue to play out of their minds the whole year, then the Cubs should just blow up Wrigley and give up.

Damn, too bad we don't have any of those.

McClouth 3-4 with 2 HRs as PITT is killing SF

 

Unreal about McClouth

Shouldn't we be calling him up soon?
