HEY DUSTBAG: NOW'S THE TIME TO USE YOUR SCRUB, MACIAS

Aramis playing hurt

 

CHICAGO -- Aramis Ramirez is hurt, and the only way he can heal his sore right leg is to take extended time off. Right now, the Chicago Cubs can't afford to have him on the bench.

 

"He's not 100 percent, and he hasn't been 100 percent for a while," Cubs manager Dusty Baker said of Ramirez. "There's a couple guys who I told to play smart because we can't afford to lose them.

 

"It may look like they're not hustling, but [Ramirez] hurt his leg hustling out a play to first base about a month ago," Baker said. "In order for us not to lose him for two weeks or more, we urged him to play smart. It's going to look bad, and sometimes the fans are going to think he's not hustling. But that's what he has to do."

 

Ramirez hurt his quad running to first base in the Cubs' July 27 game against San Francisco.

 

My GOD, Ram has been playing hurt for TWO WEEKS, we have lost the last what? eight games not even close... REST HIM YOU STUPID ARROGANT ... ARRGGGHHHHHH!!!!!

 

And while you're at it, give Lee some time off. He's slumping badly, that Triple Crown will be long gone. And forget about MVP - most of the time, your team has to be worth a crap to be one. :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

maybe they can call up Kelton to play third. Oh yeah Dusty would just play Macias and leave Kelton on the bench.

The only reason to page Fontenot is to see if Scott McClain is sitting near by.
