04/09 Cubs (Silva) vs. DBR (Bailey) 6:10 CT WGN

[Tim M]

Nice Ab Rami

[Sammy Sofa]

Still hitless. WEE.

 

But Lou said he was gonna play guys who get results. :-))

The thing is there are literally no options to replace Theriot on the 25-man roster, Fontenot is not a SS. Theriot has nobody that is a potential risk to steal ab's from him as the roster stands right now.

 

Then at least move him out of the slot that gets the most AB's.

[Sammy Sofa]

Yikes.

[Outshined_One]

That was a little bit too close. Impressive play by Votto.

[Roast]

WOAhhhhhhhh... I don't know about running there, but it worked out

I agree, if Lou is going to stick to that line of thinking and in regards to Theriot (has no replacements on the bench) he should be batting 8th.

Exactly. Funny enough, Milton Bradley got off to a better start last year.

 

I know it means absolutely nothing, but still.

[Sammy Sofa]

Wow, I did not know Nady had such great numbers at the GAB.

[Outshined_One]

Sweet AB.

[Roast]

Nice.

 

C'mon soriano.

[Andy]

Great work by our scrub outfielders. :-)

[ctcf]

Yay for patience!

[Cubswin11]

Event though we haven't been scoring a bunch of runs in the first inning between last night and tonight (yet), it's nice to see we are getting the opposing pitcher into the mid 20's in the first inning.

[Sammy Sofa]

Loving the patience.

[Sammy Sofa]

Awwwwww, no more Dick Pole? Booooo.

[Roast]

I like this Homer Bailey guy

[squally1313]

No Homer...you throw that pitch with two strikes. Just be a little more patient...

[witty alias]

Ah damn We have CB Bucknor. Luckily he's stashed at 3rd tonight

 

He'll be behind the plate tomorrow, though, unfortunately. Probably won't be good for Z.

 

If he's at 3rd tonight, he'll be at 2nd tomorrow.

[Outshined_One]

Oof. That was his pitch.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Bailey up to 25 pitches already.

[Sammy Sofa]

Oof. That was his pitch.

 

Yeah, he should have killed that 1-0.

[genbar]

:roll:

[Roast]

Whelp, could have gotten a lot more but it's nice to see the high pitch count on Bailey. And he appears to have absolutely squat tonight.

[Cubswin11]

Damn, at least we made Homer throw a good amount of pitches. Don't suck Silva

[ctcf]

Bailey up to 25 pitches already.

 

Finishes at 27. Not a bad start.

 

Come on Carlos!!!
