2 people have to get on base for Murton to get another AB. Neifi won't, so 2/3 of Barrett, Burntiz, or Cedeno will have to.

 

Hey, Neifi's been known to get a couple hits once in a while.

I just got the baby to sleep...and I'm not reading through the entire game thread...

 

But.... I just have one thing to say. This better have earned Murton another start.

 

And thanks DJAXX for helping me get that Murton jersey.

 

I believe Jon posted early in the thread that Murton will get one more start over the weekend, and Hollandsworth will get the other.

 

Nothing against Holla but, play Murton while he's HOT

That is correct. Dusty said he'd have to see which lefty isn't as good against left-handers, but I'd imagine Murton will be in the lineup tomorrow night against Olsen without looking up their nubmers.

 

As expected, Dusty had good things to say about Hollandsworth. Don't expect Todd to sit much.

Wuertz can't throw strikes again. :x

[PackLandVA]

Todd's been as hot as anyone on the Cubs the past month. Can't really go wrong with starting him, can you?

[otis89]

Strikes please, Wuertz.

[Omar]

8 walks, thank god we're leading 8-3.. Wuertz! Triple play please!!

[PackLandVA]

Didn't they get roasted in the 8th last night, too?!?!?!?

[Schwarber Fan]

OH CRAP

[Omar]

And its a 2 run game.

[E.J.]

Wow. Wuertz is sweet. :puke:

[sethuel1]

uh

[rickrolled]

Watch us blow this one.

[badger1679666666]

I think it's tough. I want to see Murton alot, but Holla has been on fire .444 or something like that over the last two weeks - he was the only guy hitting.

 

I think giving 2 to the youngster and 1 to holla isn't a bad set up.

 

 

and Jon- I'm just saying pitch counts used to not be a big deal, 120 used to not be a big deal. I wish it returned to that.

 

I think Z has some input on whether he wants to stay in or go out as long as he isn't giving up a ton of hits. In between innings, I'm sure Dusty asks him how he's feeling - and if you rmember against the White Sox, he told Dusty he was tired so Dusty pulled him.

 

I don't think we know what happens in the Dugout sitting on our computers.

[PackLandVA]

I can see why Baker left Z in so long. You can't bring in Dempster in the 6th or 7th to close it out. Who else is reliable?!?!?

Gamedae made that look like a massive shot. Was it?

Yea, the only question was.. Fair or foul?

[BeerHere]

Jesus Christ Wuertz! Are you trying to blow this one?

 

WTF???????????????

[NorthsideAvenger]

Watch us blow this one.

 

Pagin Dr. "Snot" Dempster, you're needed in the emergency room, er...mound. Dr. Dempster you're needed in the emergency room.

 

The Cubs WILL NOT lose this game. :evil:

yes

[chicubs]

8-6 with two full innings left...ugh. Remmy on the mound. ugh.

[Omar]

Is Rich Hill that special? We have to send him down to make sure he gets his starts??

[BeerHere]

Two walks and a homer does it for Wuertz. Nice job kid.
