7/21 Cubs (Maddux) @ Reds (Milton) 11:35 AM CSNC

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

Freel is impressive.

[Coach C]

Why am I feeling another DLee solo shot?

 

Heh, at least he got a single. I'll take it. :D

pujols is creeping up on dlee in the rbi dept.

[Blueheart05]

Argh! Rammy was robbed down the 3rdbase line

[sherwood921]

I want Walker back next year

 

 

Freel can join us too

[MustangMike]

How many hitters can say that a 1 for 3 day lowers their average?? :)

 

puts the triple crown in perspective doesn't it?

[TruffleShuffle]

I wonder if the Reds feel like Milton is earning his salary...

I think Lee won't care too much as long as we're starting to win, win, win..

[David]

Walker vs. lefties this year..

 

.471/.514/.824 (1.337) in 34 ABs

 

Of course it's a small sample size... but he's killed them so far.

[DivineBovine]

I wonder how many more hits Aram would have if he had any semblance of speed.

[BleedCubbieBlue81]

Yeah, the Cards put guys on in front of Pujols. The Cubs just started getting guys on in front of Lee. But if Walker keeps tearing the cover off the ball, Lee will never win the RBI crown. But as long as the team keeps winning, I don't care if he never gets another RBI again.

anymore news on burny? what happened, for those who cant see the game?

 

It looked like he might have gotten spiked or something by the catcher. They put a big bandage on the top of his foot and then rewrapped his ankle.

[louisvillecub]

Is it me or does it seem like Walker is actually hitting lefties well this year? I'll have to check the splits.

 

I think you're right. Didn't he just hit two HR's earlier in the series against the lefty???

They put a band-aid and some wrap around his ankle/foot

Ram is too, isn't he?

[Mushimus]

Hold them down here Maddux.

[Coach C]

Is Burnitz still in RF, for those who can't see the game?

 

Edited: Never mind.

They wrapped his ankle and sent him back out there.

[E.J.]

I haven't been paying too much attention to the game thread, but is it a surprise to anyone that we're scoring runs today with Murton and Cedeno in the lineup? Granted it's against crappy Milton, but these two guys are good hitters who use all fields. It's a sin they aren't in the lineup more often.

Just from judging Burny's personality. They could remove his foot and he'd still be out in that field.

[MustangMike]

I was playing MLB 2004, and I hit a incredibly slow roller to the thirdbaseman, and Ramirez still hit into a double play...he's so slow, but so strong.
