5/15 - Fathers (Maddux) @ Cubs (Dempster) 1:20PM CSN & 720

so, pie is going to get more screwed up playing everyday at iowa than by sitting everyday in chicago?

 

If the only other option was that he had to sit everyday in Chicago, you'd have a point. But that was not the situation. He didn't have to sit in Chicago. The right choice was to play him. The wrong one was to bench him for Reed Johnson. Making another mistake to cover up that mistake is just plain stupid.

 

But that has NOTHING to do with Edmonds, which is what they were arguing about. I think even Sulley would agree that the number 1 option would be Pie in the majors playing everyday. However, that doesn't appear to be an option at this point.

 

It is and it was an option.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

That Yahoo thing comes straight from the AP box score they are templating, I believe. Unless both Yahoo and AP get it from MLB or something.

 

Edmonds mostly cheered, a few boos.

but then the edmonds signing is moot. pie wasn't going to play anyway so the edmonds signing isn't risking "screwing him up even more".

 

Sulley, I would just stop now. These people can't see through their hatred for Edmonds. He's so gay and wears makeup and dives at balls unnecessarily LOLOL.

 

You have no clue what you are talking about.

[Outshined_One]

Damned brick wall.

[E.J.]

Wow. That was lame.

[Andy]

Bad break, damn it.

[PrimeTime]

Oh jesus vkdjhgiodhjgoidfhgod

[Flames24Rulz]

Padres get a huge break.

[17 Seconds]

Nice baserunning.

[bukie]

I'd be very amused if Edmonds had a 5-6 RBI day.

 

Mostly because the Cubs would likely win.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Ramirez out at home on a wild pitch that takes a bad bounce off the bricks.

 

I'm mad, but I can't really blame him.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Maddux is so smart he did that on purpose, I think.

[Outshined_One]

So much for that.

[PrimeTime]

LOLLLLL

[E.J.]

Nice baserunning.

 

It was a terrible break. Can't blame Aramis for that.

[Flames24Rulz]

And then of course, the patented hit with two outs and nobody on.

[Schwarber Fan]

cue ESPN's gamecast........... dead

[Drew Doughty]

yay jim

[17 Seconds]

Nice baserunning.

 

It was a terrible break. Can't blame Aramis for that.

 

Yeah, I overreacted.

OMG. Are you serious? Have you watched RJ get start after start the past month and a half and Lix get 5 ABs per week? Seriously...come on.

[Schwarber Fan]

Wow that sucks

 

we'll still win this game though

[jersey cubs fan]

I hate outs on the basepaths.

[UMFan83]

Edmonds made that ball hit off the bricks on purpose. And then he got the single so he could boost his stats but not help the Cubs!

[gerby23]

Maddux is so smart he did that on purpose, I think.

 

He spent hours practicing that while a Cub

I was amused when the wild pitch against lily broke it last night, it thought that it was the third out and cleared it
