HEY RAY KING!

 

TRY NOT TO BE SO FAT NEXT TIME

 

FATTY

 

Fix'd.

 

Hah, man he's not fat.. just big boned!

[Coach C]

He struck you out!!!

[SwisherSweet]

Finally someone exposes Taguchi for the crappy hitter he is.

[JoshiQ]

It's been so long since I've seen Woody so dominating. Shut him down or let him start! This is a waste of his time!

[Soul]

Feels good to have some solid middle relief for a change, doesn't it?

[Omar]

Good job by Wood! We almost have this one! WOO!!

[J.R.]

I don't understand why he's pitching in relief ... but I sure do like skipping over all the bums in our pen in the late innings.

[BeerHere]

STEEEEEEEEKKKK!

 

 

ToupeeOnFire :D

[CubsHawks25]

Good news everyone! This will be the last game we'll have to hear Morgan and Miller. The next Cubs game on ESPN will be on Wednesday and that one will also be on CSN..

 

id like to hear them announce more Cubs games...in the NLDS :wink:

 

 

BLASPHEMOUS!! Heathen! Sinner!!

[Fro]

Wood hasn't pitched this well in 2 years. :shock:

[JoshiQ]

BTW, I'm not advocating him to start, just that if he is going to pitch that he might as well start. If not, shut him down. We have almost no chance of catching the 'stros.

Some of you guys are just jerks--I am not trying to be argumentative, but come on--Jose Macias is nearly hitting .300 as a sub and you still think he has not done anything--NOT FAIR!!!!!

 

That's true. The .306 OBP with an average of .293 tells me the guy never takes a walk, which limits his effectiveness.

 

I'm beating my head against the wall cause Macias didn't take a walk. 4-3 is better than 5-3.

 

The guys a bench player who can play a bunch of positions. You want to bring back DuBois, who has a lower obp and can't play any positions?

 

Yeah, Dubois will be a career sub-.300 OBP guy. He's a better offensive player than Macias by a fair margin even with his struggles, if that's what you're asking.

 

How's he doing w/ Cleveland?

 

2005 OPS

 

Macias -- .659

Cubois -- .766

 

Next question, please.

 

Does the NL have a DH?

[BeerHere]

A couple two tree dozen insurance runs off fatty would be nice.

[burnt out cubbie fan]

I hope this doesn't sound trollish but I simply cannot believe Wood hasn't been shut down for surgery.

 

You a doctor?

What's the point of this comment. It is well known that Kerry is going to need surgery this offseason. Are you just trying to get under his skin because he is a Cards fan?

 

You don't think Hendry's has consulted w/ doctor's?? Some of the nitpicking of the Cub organization and incessant griping is amazing here.

Are you kidding me? Like the Cubs have never made horrible decisions involving pitchers before? Like all of last year? I think that it is pretty fair to doubt their decisions involving the handling of injuries.

Yep, the Cubs are above questioning. Because this franchise always puts a winning product on the field and never has any problems with arm injuries to pitchers.

 

Seriously, the Cub organization deserves nitpicking, especially when it comes to the young pitchers that are getting injured left and right (arms).

[Outshined_One]

Does the NL have a DH?

 

Please tell me you wouldn't take Macias over Dubois defensively.

Dubois plays 1 position poorly.

 

Macias plays 7 positions poorly.

[Coach C]

[BeerHere]
