8/16 Pirates (Ohlendorf) @ Cubs (Harden) [POSTPONED]

[Outshined_One]

Miles OBP is .226

 

That is all

 

I fully expect him to chip away at that number today.

I dislike Miles more than I ever disliked Jose Macias. That's saying a lot.

Enjoyed a moment Wednesday when Miles came up to hit and a group of people apparently in from Sweden (they kept waving their poster stating this towards Len and Bob from sec 423) yelled "Miles You Suck!" in various forms upon hearing his name announced, which without thought I reflex-yelled YEAH MILES SUCKS WORST PLAYER IN THE MAJORS AARON MILES and we all sort of cheered the fact that at least we knew he sucked, making his suckage amusing rather than painful as usual for Miles ABs or even balls hit to his tiny elf-like body which reminds me of a 5 year old unable to move while attempting to play with an adult's glove which was clearly stolen or borrowed rather than actually meant to be on his tiny useless appendage which should be hiding from all eyes and not telling anyone he has millions of dollars from his infamously suck-filled career.

Aaron Miles has put up the 7th worst cumulative numbers in all of baseball this year (-11.0 runs VORP), making him the 916 most valuable offensive player to ever get a plate appearance in the major leagues this year.

 

[interestingly, Ronny Cedeno is actually THE worst this year at -15.2 VORP].

Did I hear that Baker is sick?

when will they get this one in?

[Schwarber Fan]

Looking at the radar, they may have a window until around 6:00 and then forget it after that

Reporting from the upper deck at Wrigley... The rain is very ligjt at the moment but there is lightning in the area. And just as I type this the rain is picking up a bit. Its going to be a long day.

[Careless]

It doesn't look like they'll be able to get more than 90 minutes of baseball in without a second, long rain delay later

there is alot of rain

[Schwarber Fan]

If they don't get it in, they'll probably just add a doubleheader to the series in late Sept.

[Eric Clipperton]

So, they'll try to play this one at some point today, right? Seems like there are few open dates due to all the rainouts. Ugly day, just like Aaron Miles' existence.

Why the hell isnt Baker in the lineup today? Ever heard of riding the hot hand Lou?
