We won't win with Marmol

[Roast]

The guy is a sham reliever, lou needs to do something about him and fast. He constantly gives up homers in the ninth inning. I mean, he's done it twice in a row. When is this team going to get it's head out of it's butt.

[CubInOK]

His TJ surgery has already been scheduled.

i don't like the lack of alliteration in this one.

 

Cubs cant compete with carlos closing

[BCVM22]

I see what you've done here.

[TruffleShuffle]

we won't win with marmol pitching 110 innings this year, i will go with that prediction.

The heck with 110....you can't win the ERA race with that, go for 162 Lou!

[CUBZ99]

Fortunately, One Pitch Howry is back to being Good Howry.

[Little Slide Rooter]

I thought Hendry should have been fired the minute he let go of Will Ohman. I always told myself Carlos might have some of the best stuff I've ever seen, but theres something not quite right about those ears.

How about "Cubs can't count on Carlos closing consistently, 'cause Marmol makes me mad"

[SouthSideRyan]

We won't win with Marmol after approximately August 12th. We'll have to win or lose without him after that point.

[UMFan83]

Ifthe Cubs don't want to lose Marmol, they need to stop getting 4 run leads.

[BleacherBadger]

It's really no surprise that he blew the 4 run lead. He rarely pitches. Lou needs to save him for when we're up by 8 or more. That's the only time he should pitch.

[TheDude]

While he is at it, Lou needs to stop trusting that kid Gallagher. It's not right that he trusts some rookie in the rotation, because he never does that.

[C.C.]

R.I.P.

 

Marmol's right arm. Godspeed.

[mul21]

“We’ve talked about 13 pitchers here in the past, and I think we’re going to have to start talking about it again,” he said. “Michael is walking people. In that type of role, you have to make the other people put the ball in play. You just can’t walk people, and most of the times he comes into ballgames, that’s exactly what happens, and it forces me to go get another pitcher.”

 

Piniella said he might have to give Carlos Marmol some more rest, after the Cubs’ top set-up man surrendered a three-run homer in the ninth to Adrian Gonzalez.

 

“Carlos is probably a little tired, and understandably so,” he said. “So I’ve got to give him a good breather.”

 

Again, good to hear from Lou. Let's see if he actually does it now.

 

Also, from Marmol:

 

 

Marmol said Gonzalez was “lucky” because it was a good pitch.

 

“It was a good pitch that nobody can hit if it’s right there,” he said. “That’s what I feel like.”

 

Marmol insisted he is not “tired,” and said he’ll tell Piniella that on Tuesday.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Maybe if Wuertz were being inserted into a 1 run game that quote would make sense, but in that situation last night it's rash and unnecessary.

What does Will Ohman have to do with anything in this thread?

Yup, used and abused. Lou is going to put this guy in a hospital at this rate.
