  1. not surprising, given that the cards lineup is loaded with patient hitters and the cubs are a bunch of first-pitch hackers
  2. for the record, i'd have preferred that marquis swung away there... he strikes out very infrequently for a pitcher (just 25 times in 165 ABs the last two years) and I think there's a better chance of scoring the run if he doesn't bunt
  3. bunt with cedeno, give marquis a chance to knock him in
  4. i'm pretty sure marquis has a better chance of getting on base than cedeno
  5. if loathing eckstein is wrong, i don't wanna be right
  6. i find myself suddenly glad he's not our manager
  7. if it was rich hill, i'd be upset that he'll be leaving the game early... jason marquis, not so much
  8. somehow we're the only team that has a hard time putting away preston wilson
  9. jones has 1 rbi this year??? wow that's horrendous.
  10. Actually, the Cubs biggest weakness is not having guys on base. True..But this season it seems theyre getting the guys on..But weve sene numerous times theyve had guys on with no outs or 1 and they screw it up somehow and cant score a single freakin run This year the Cubs have a .316 OBP (20th in the league) and have a .280 BA (6th in the league) with runners on base.
  11. Yeah I dunno either, but I would like to keep him up once Soriano comes back. Nice job Murton! Line drives to the opposite field, thats what we like to see! He ain't gonna be much worse than Jones/Murton (the guys he'd take bats away from). And his CF defense would add GREATLY. don't be so sure about that
  12. <----------- doesn't think pie's bat is ready for the majors yet
  13. what the hell... i try to watch the game online, and it says i need a premium subscription? i guess the $90 i'm spending this year isn't enough.... what a scam.
  14. not too different than his numbers last year... at least he's consistent
  15. this is virginia tech we're talking about
  16. Perry was a lousy hitter, and Piniella was really not much better than average
