He cares, so he decided to post it, and I reckon that the several card fans who stop by these threads during Cubs/Cards games care too. Take it easy.

[TrueBlueCubFan]

BTW, Hollandsworth is starting for the Braves today & batting 5th! Does this make Bobby Cox a moron,too?

I'll wait to see if he continues to do that for weeks.

If he did it every day for 2 months, then yes.

So some people care, and he does, no need to try and instigate something or just antagonize the guy.

Hairston to CF & Murton to LF, please!

 

Why?

[frostwyrm]

After today Murton will have started 1 of the last 5 games. I'm starting to think Dusty just doesn't like him.

I've stoped trying to figure out Dusty, it makes my brain hurt.

CUBS are 43-55 when Barrett catches, 23-15 when Blanco starts.

He was in the 5 hole last time I saw him start also.

Hairston to CF & Murton to LF, please!

 

Why?

B/C CPatt's a major liability offensively. He is clearly not big league material. An absolute joke @ the plate.

I will continue to express myself the way I see it. My opinion is just that, if you don't like it, put me on ignore.

The games don't matter anymore. Wouldn't it make sense to have Corey try and improve his trade value(or earn a spot on next year's team, however you look at it)? We pretty much know what we've got with Hairston. Besides, with the defensive differential, Hairston's only marginally better than Patterson on the whole.

[Fred Hornkohl]

TOP OF THE FIRST INNING

 

Hairston grounded out to third, 5-3

Cedeno popped out to shortstop

Lee flied out to right field

 

0 runs, 0 hits, 0 errors, 0 men left on base

 

           1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9    R H E
CUBS       0                    0 0 0 
St. Louis  .                    0 0 0 

[frostwyrm]

Burnitz is the guy who shouldn't play. We already know everything about him and he's not very good.

[Fred Hornkohl]

We saw a grand total of 7 pitches that inning. (2.3 P/PA) That's not gonna cut it.

I agree we should be taking a look at both Patterson and Murton to see what we want to do with them next year.

If it is your intention to just be a nuisance here, then we have a much nicer feature a little more powerful than ignore.

Absolutely. If we were in the race I'd say sit Patterson but since we're not there's no reason not to play him. Murton should of course play instead of Burnitz. Burnitz's presence has became a cancer.
