6/2 Super Cubs (Z!) @ Padres (Baek) 9:05 pm CSN/WGN Radio

D-Lee has to be among the league leaders in GIDP.

NL leading

 

No big deal.

 

Among players with 50 or more at-bats, there are more than 50 players in MLB who ground into double plays at a higher rate.

 

Lee has grounded into a lot of double plays because he's come up to bat with a runner on first so often.

Greene struck out swinging

[Careless]

Someone please stop Bob from talkinga bout marriage

[splintersag]

Lieber strikes him out. Nice.

[CubsGM]

Yes dear, you're right, I'm sorry.

[Butterscup1679666578]

Lee's still right on his career averages, more or less. He's never going to be 2005 Lee again, but I'm okay with the one we have.

 

The GIDP thing needs to stop, though.

 

the GIDP thing is my only concern.

[TMan92]

So...who won the over/under on Brenley saying "Yes dear you're right I am sorry"

[Coach C]

So how many people do you think Henry Blanco has shanked?

 

See my sig....

[CubsGM]

2 outs

[Fred Hornkohl]

McAnulty popped out to third base

Yup, I love Hank White.

[inari]

I'm kinda worried about Lee.

 

Either he is not picking the right pitches to hit, or there is something different about his swing. Either way, 11 GIDP is disconcerning. Maybe for the time being, maybe switch out ARam and Lee, ARam 3rd, and Lee 4th.

 

Eh, I don't think that'll really make a difference.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Lee with style points.

 

This flyball yips thing is contagious.

[inari]

Haha, nice!

I'm not concerned either. He's just in a slump and probably a little bad luck. Matt V. for SD just happened to say "league leading DP" last inning after Lee's.

[BCVM22]

Woah there D. Lee.

Michael Barrett stranded at second after a leadoff double.

 

I thought it was 2006 again, but then I snapped back to reality.

[carolinacubbie]

D-LEE!!! LOL. Nice inning by Lieber to bounce back after the lead off double. Wouldn't it be great if won a game where Lieber and Cotts got holds?

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Does Lee have 11 GIDP or 12? B-R had him at 11 coming into tonight, unless they are updating live now.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 27-1 when they lead after 6 innings

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[CubsGM]

Lee gets 20 Edmonds style points for that!

[splintersag]

That'll do, Lieber. That'll do. Edited June 3, 2008 by splintersag
