Is there any reason Lou likes Marquis as a pinch runner so much?

 

Well, usually teams avoid PR with a pitcher because they don't want him to get injured so he can continue to pitch. I'm not sure that's what the Cubs see in Marquis, however.

 

I wouldn't mind it if he pulled a hammy.

Melvin is stupid for not pitching to Soriano when he needed a K. At least try and get him to chase a couple pitches out of the zone.

 

Yeah, I can agree with that. I woulda tried to get the K on a K prone RH hitter coming in cold. Had to know Ward would hit for Pie anyway. If you get Soriano, you still can walk Ward and have them loaded for Fontenot with 2 outs.

Considering Ojeda and Montero are going to be sandwiching a pinch hitter, there's really no excuse not to get the job done here.

a blown save would be an incredible kick in the balls here

 

Yep. If it happens, I'm going to kick you in the balls for saying it.

Have you seen Augie this series? He's killed us.

 

Great. There's the HBP.
