7/18 Cubs (Williams) @ Reds (Claussen) 6:10 pm, CSN

[Brian]

HAHA, here's your shot D!

[Blueheart05]

2 on, no outs. DLee at the plate

[badger1679666666]

Man I love this 1/2 punch.

 

A HR by Lee puts him in the RBI lead. Did I jinx him?

Booooooo!

 

;)

[Brian]

LOL

[TruffleShuffle]

Another QS for a cubs pitcher. Is that the 8th in a row?

 

This one makes number 9 !!

 

Both of you two ended your strings of quality posts right here!

[Blueheart05]

Just got under it. JHJ tags and goes to 3rd. Man I wish we had these guys on base when D was getting 4 & 5 hits a game

Holly has been hitting real well lately against RH pitching so the platoon is working. When they get to a stretch of seeing more righties it will be interesting to see what happens but for now I think they shouldn't change anything.

 

Hollandsworth  AB   R   H  2B  3B  HR  TB RBI  BB  SO     BA    OBP    SLG    OPS
07/09 - 07/17  13   2   3   0   0   0   3   0   2   2  0.231  0.333  0.231  0.564

 

:shock:

 

Why pick the 7/9 - 7/17 time period?

 

If you use all of July his BA is .321, OBP is 394, SLG is .571 against RH pitching.

 

That seems pretty good to me.

 

Becuase that's when he turned cold. Why do you insist on tying all trends to the calendar month ?? Players don't get hot and cold on a monthly schedule, ya know.

Damnit Lee, why couldn't you hit 3 HR? You suck.

[Blueheart05]

UGH! Ram pops out. 2 down.

Most people use months because it's the most focused, yet easy to locate/calculate split to find. Not all of us have your killer database, although we'd love it if you shared. :wink:

[marc_foust]

2 rbi double right here.

[brinoch]

I really hate when Ramirez swings with that extreme uppercut. That's twice tonight he's done it -- and twice he's popped up on it. C'mon Barrett!

[CubsWin]

I just hope Murton plays enough for Hendry to determine whether he is the answer in LF for the playoff chase.

 

If Nomar is able to return and perform like he can, the Cubs might be able to afford having an unproven quantity in the 8th spot in LF.

 

Especially if Williams and Maddux can have good 2nd halves.

I remember that kid in Teen Wolf was better during a full moon.

[Jon]

Big, big hit there by Hairston.

[brinoch]

Nice job there by Barrett. I've really liked his approach tonight.

[marc_foust]

Bare Bare making a liar out of me with rbi single, that slacker..

[Blueheart05]

Barrett with a clutch RBI single

[badger1679666666]

There we go Bare Bare, stay Red hot. OBP over .500 for Barrett Recently now.

 

Dempster might not get a save opp now. He needs some work though, get him in, in the 9th please Dusty.

[Coach C]

Big, big hit there by Hairston.

 

You mean Barrett?

[marc_foust]

Nice job there by Barrett. I've really liked his approach tonight.

 

 

I think that his approach always looks better when he is not batting behind neifi or corey and before the pitcher.

[badger1679666666]

Big, big hit there by Barrett.

 

Fixed. :wink:

[Blueheart05]

Jeromy lines out.
