Cubs protesting Halladay's ERA

[Schwarber Fan]

The Cubs have sent a DVD to the league office in New York of Ronny Cedeno's shot up the middle in Saturday's game in Toronto that originally was ruled a hit before being changed to an error after Reed Johnson's three-run homer. That made the runs unearned. They're hoping the league will overturn the scoring decision.

Haha, I hope they win this

[C.C.]

Why do this? What's the point they won the game.

[Jon]

That's a waste of a DVD and postage. Especially since it should have been ruled an error from the start.

[BleedCubbieBlue81]

This sounds like Orlando Cabrera had a hand in it. It shouldn't matter at all. They won the game. It just makes them look like crybabies now.

[Little Slide Rooter]

um, why? The Ws all that matters.

[CubbieBum]

I didn't see the play but it makes me laugh. Why do the Cubs care? One thing I will say is if we want Burnett we shouldn't be pissing of the Blue Jays with petty stuff like this.

[UMFan83]

The only person that this would help is Ronny Cedeno. And all it would do is give him a hit and an RBI. What's the point?

Halladay's price will be lower if his ERA is higher.

 

 

 

 

 

hmmm....

Ha, yes, perhaps it's an intricate & ingenious plan to lower Roy's cost!

 

A couple of years ago, while Maddux was still a Cub, he pitched in a Florida game vs the Marlins and coughed up a bunch of runs after a borderline play at SS (Cedeno) that was ruled a hit. After the game, the Cubs protested and asked that the hit be scored an error on Cedeno, to which the league acceded. It took several earned runs off Maddux's record.

 

Maybe this is payback for Ronny!

[Ding Dong Johnson]

teams do this all the time, it should be no surprise to anyone

Yes, and its good form to stick up for your players as this could mean money for Ronny in the future. Sure, one hit and one RBI isn't much but if it were to happen a handful of times then that could hurt him.

Halladay's price will be lower if his ERA is higher.

 

 

 

 

 

hmmm....

 

And it will drive Cedeno's value higher.

 

 

hmmmmmmmmmmm

[Butterscup1679666578]

So...Cedeno for Halladay?

[Laura]

It would seem the only logical conclusion.

[Post Count Padder]

Halladay's price will be lower if his ERA is higher.

 

 

 

 

 

hmmm....

 

And it will drive Cedeno's value higher.

 

 

hmmmmmmmmmmm

That's a waste of a DVD and postage. .

 

I'm sure they just did this as a project to give some worthless intern..or Carrie Muskat.

[chuckywang]

I see this as an excuse for more people to see that ridiculously hilarious Eckstein crawl.

[radarluv1]

That's a waste of a DVD and postage. Especially since it should have been ruled an error from the start.

did the cubs have expressed, written permission from mlb to burn the dvd? cuz if not, thats federal once they mailed it.

seriously, they had to snail mail the frikking video? wtf?
