8/3 Cubs (Wells) vs DB's Reds (Harang), 6:10pm, WCIU/ESPN

[illiniguy]

Randy Wells has to be the favorite for Rookie of the Year. I guess maybe J. A. Happ too, but no way should any hitter get a shot.

 

If McCutchen keeps hitting, I don't see how he won't get consideration.

Fair enough, I totally forgot about him.

[Careless]

See, here's the problem with Dusty. 107 pitches before the inning starts and he sends Harang back out there, He's going to end up throwing 120+ after the walk, maybe 130. Just dumb.

Theriot trying to save him

[Flames24Rulz]

lol Dusty. Pure comedy.

[E.J.]

Haha. Guess that was a bad decision Dusty. :thumbsup:

[illiniguy]

[OleMissCub]

"ya, just 146 pitches or thereabouts boss, I'm good"

 

"ok"

[Hall7810]

Pitch count dudes? Dude's a horse, dude

[NotSoSober]

Baker is an idiot

[Flames24Rulz]

And Dusty adds the double switch for good measure.

 

Beautiful.

[E.J.]

And here comes the double switch. I can't say I miss Dusty all that much.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 21-10 when they execute a sac bunt.... 34-38 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[imb]

the crowd chants "let's go cubbies"

 

Dusty flashes back and shudders

 

reds players plan on leaving the organization as soon as possibly

The double switch really isn't that bad with the pitcher due up first in the inning.

[Coach C]

I'm glad that Dusty Baker is not the manager for the Chicago Cubs.

 

That is all.

And here comes the double switch. I can't say I miss Dusty all that much.

 

And the award for "Biggest understatement of the year post goes to.......EJ!!!!!!"

Alex Gonzalez is basically a pitcher.

[E.J.]

The double switch really isn't that bad with the pitcher due up first in the inning.

 

I guess it only really matters if Weathers is going to pitch the 9th as well. It just brings back really bad memories.

LOL Dusty leaves in Harang to face Lee instead of:

 

A.) Walking him to set up a double play.

 

B.) Bringing in David Weathers to pitch to Derrek Lee.(Lee is 4-26 in his career off Weathers)

 

I love playing against Dusty.

[Flames24Rulz]

Nothing like bringing in a reliever to throw 4 straight balls. Wow, this is even brutal for Dusty.

[E.J.]

Bradley should never be given the 3-0 green light while batting LH.

[Flames24Rulz]

Weathers hasn't thrown a strike yet and Bradley's swinging at crap.
