7/1 Nationals (Hernandez) @ Cubs (Prior) 1:20pm CT CSN

[Omar]

No. Cubs luck! Burnitz picked off..

[Jon]

And it costs us...

 

Unbelievable.

[sethuel1]

Lets go holla, anyone know if aram is good to go as a ph

 

he is.

[JC]

You've got to be freaking kidding me.

[illiniguy]

damn ball was a homer anyways.

[Mushimus]

*sigh*

[WindyCity]

WTF Burnitz?! ](*,)

[marc_foust]

This is just how cubs games are, every time we get a little hope they samsh it with crap like this inning

[YearofDaCubs]

Found these numbers while looking over some stats just now...

 

Neif's OBP in May was .283 and in June it was .248. That's pathetic for any hitter, but especially for a guy hitting first or second.

 

Corey's OBP in May was .311 and in June it was .211. Yes, .211.

 

Hey Dusty, you should keep those guys at the top of the order. Freakin idiot.

Baker IS an idiot and overrated as a manager. It's that simple.

 

How can he be overrated when everyone bashes him all the time?

He was overrated before he was hired as the CUbs manager. But I think we as fans know now that he is not a good manager.

[TruffleShuffle]

LOL, if that isn't Classic Cubs, screwed over by the umps and then boneheaded baserunning.

[Jon]

You know what to do, Ramirez.

[Marco4]

Come on now.... Aramis. Come on

[sethuel1]

Aramis up. Barrett, Hairston and Dubois can pinch hit next inning (or later this inning). It's not over yet.

 

Note that i didn't say they would pinch hit.

[marc_foust]

[Mushimus]

Can someone explain to me how did Burnitz got picked off?

I personally like managers who have won in 9 of the 13 seasons they have been managing. (I'm not saying some of Dusty's moves drive me nuts, but there are plenty in the game worse than Dusty)

i personally would have loved to manage barry bonds all those years too.

[johnnyba99]

was it a HR or not? I can't see the game.

[Jon]

Can someone explain to me how did Burnitz got picked off?

He got too big of a secondary lead. The pitch was outside and it was an easy throw to third.

 

And yeah, that ball was clearly a HR. I don't know how you can miss that...

Hey that's your opinion. The way I see it is there are plenty of managers out there that are much better.

Plenty are worse when it comes to in-game management and personnel decisions? I don't think so. Maybe a small handful, but that's it. And that's being very generous.
