Bot 6

[Butterscup1679666578]

When did Freel come in?

 

Came in for Bradley a couple innings ago.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Fukudome stole second base

[BCVM22]

Is Bradley injured or just ineffective?

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 15-5 when they steal a base.... 19-30 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Tryptamine]

I love Ozzie Guillen. Your pitcher has already hurt his back, but you keep him in for the 7th. He gives up 3 runs in the 7th and 5 runs on the day. At this point even Lou is smart enough to pull his starter, but Ozzie keeps Contreras in for the 8th too.

[Sammy Sofa]

Is Bradley injured or just ineffective?

 

Sounds like Lou and he had an argument in the clubhouse.

[Butterscup1679666578]

Is Bradley injured or just ineffective?

 

Apparently he came in after making an out, slammed his helmet, threw a water bottle and went into the clubhouse. Apparently Lou followed him down there and then he was out the next inning.

[moorecg]

Heilman warming up...I guess Lou thinks losing is a good option.

Came in for Bradley a couple innings ago.

 

what i don't understand is how there were all of these concerns with fox at third and then you bring freel in to play rf instead of third. i just wonder why fox couldn't have been banging balls off of and over the fence a while ago if lou all of a sudden thinks that he is a better defender at third than freel right now relative to their abilities in rf.

That last part is the best thing that Hawk has to offer...

Marmol in to pitch for the CUBS

[Butterscup1679666578]

there is absolutely no reason at all that marmol should be our 8th inning guy anymore.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Beckham walked

[Careless]

Interesting face from Piniella there

[Fred Hornkohl]

Podsednik flied out to center field

[Sammy Sofa]

there is absolutely no reason at all that marmol should be our 8th inning guy anymore.

 

He basically has to be until Guzman comes back.

[Tryptamine]

Interesting face from Piniella there

 

Clearly Piniella was surprised that Marmol walked someone; I mean it happens so rarely.
