Jermain Van Buren!! DUH!!

 

Is he the next phenom?? If so, bring him up. I don't want another 26-28 yr. old up.

[minnesotacubsfan]

jeezus

[Schwarber Fan]

Wandy Rodriguez singles to right

Willy Taveras flies out to left

Craig Biggio flies out to left

Lance Berkman flies out to left

[CubsHawks25]

We need guys like Fassero, Estes, Borowski, Hawkins, and the like back... if you're gonna be bad, go with the proven bad pitchers!!

[Schwarber Fan]

Eric Bruntlett the new 2B

that was my point, the pithers we have or had w/potential are unavailible....

[CubfaninCA]

I want JVB, but then someone's going to have to be released from the 40-man but I doubt they'd do it.

 

Release Wellemeyer. No loss @ all.

It doesn't matter. Wuertz is shaky but Welly should not be here (period). If you can't keep your ERA under 4 in the minors you don't belong in the MLs. I was shocked when I saw that Koronka was sent down so quickly in favor of Wellemeyer. Don't get me wrong, I don't think Koronka is the answr. Actually, I'm inclinded to think that Hill out of the pen is better than as a starter because of his limited pitches. Bring him back. Welly has got to go!

[muntjack]

Anyone know whos has gotten the most ABs for the cubs this season?

 

 

 

That's right.................Jeromy Burnitz!!!!

 

 

This is not good, by the way.

Since Wellemeyer went back to AAA to start, he had an ERA below 3 IIRC.

[Brian]

Is he the next phenom?? If so, bring him up. I don't want another 26-28 yr. old up.

 

 

He just truned 25.... he's got a 1.82 ERA with 21 saves.

[CubsHawks25]

Freaking Jose Macias is showing more patience/pitch workage than 8/9ths of tonight's starting lineup.

[Omar]

Good AB by Macias.

Yep, bring Hill out of the pen. Just don't let him go beyond an inning. Might get a 7 spot tagged on him. :(

[gerby23]

And Macias with the best AB of the night...ughhh

[muntjack]

Okay, we need to average 2.5 runs per inning to win this game.

 

Of course, we also have to give up zero.....so....

[Omar]

Macias takes the earned walk. Good AB.

[CubsHawks25]

Macias fouls back his 10th straight.

 

AND gets a walk... Macias better start for Burnitz tomorrow, if Murton doesn't!!

[Blueheart05]

Macias with a great AB ends in a walk

[Schwarber Fan]
