8-5, 3.09 ERA, 1.19 WHIP, OBA .262

 

 

No real mojo to add here until this team can prove it deserves some mojo. Basically guys, we need to start winning series. Forget a long streak. Forget making a trade. Forget that DeRo is within the division. To paraphrase someone from earlier in the season, they are not the St. Louis DeRosas.

 

Rich... snap out of it, and get this series off to a good start!

This series could not have come at a better time.

 

Why? The Pirates are actually playing decent ball, and had won 4 in a row before today.

And they lost 5 in a row before that.

This series could not have come at a better time.

 

Why? The Pirates are actually playing decent ball, and had won 4 in a row before today.

 

And they lost 5 in a row before that.

 

So then wouldn't it have been better to start the series on day one of that 5 game losing streak?

I think I'd like to see this lineup tonight:

 

Theriot SS

Freel 3B

Fox LF

Lee 1B

Hoffpauir RF

Hill C

Blanco 2B

Fuld CF

 

That would be one gritty bunch...

Who are these CUBS that I see named in the thread title?

 

I don't do the whole "Cobs" thing.

 

You should try it sometime. However, I prefer Super Mega Awful cObs!!!

It would have been even better to start this series in 2008, but since we can't bend time and space I'll take what we can get.
