    archer can be pretty frustrating; he has the stuff to be at the top of the rotation but his location leaves him too frequently. last game he was rolling along and then imploded in the 4th inning. i think at the very least archer can be a tough ROOGY at the big league level (.203 BAA against RH batters in his major league career)

    why is a team with most of its top players still improving likely to drop off some next year?
  3. TruffleShuffle
    Who are all these top prospect SP that the Rays and Red Sox moved to the pen without having innings as a starter? Price and..... Dude quit while you're behind already. You sound like Dusty with this "that's how they've always done it" logic. i didn't know it was possible to be so willfully ignorant and smug at the same time.

    I will wager you a nickle that the Wings finish higher then the Hawks next season Based on what? a nickel not being a lot of money, probably

    wow nice job today wells
  6. TruffleShuffle
    he's now struck out 49 of the 102 batters he's faced (48.04%) and has 17.88 K per 9 IP. jeez.
  7. TruffleShuffle
    well that should be it for lilly, good outing and sorry the offense is such a joke.
  8. TruffleShuffle
    drop kyle blanks add the vlad

    someone get a [expletive] explanation from lou as to why a hitter who hasn't had a walk or an extra base hit in three weeks is batting leadoff.
  10. TruffleShuffle
    no wonder you're a cubs fan then.
  11. TruffleShuffle
    oneri fleita sucks too and he should be part of the purge that rids this organization of hendry and piniella.
  12. TruffleShuffle
    For a baseball purist such as myself this is glorious. i'd probably appreciate it more if there weren't so many games where the cubs' offense was completely wretched. i can enjoy a good pitcher's duel, but when three-quarters of the pitchers you face are dominating you, it's probably your offense that sucks.
  13. TruffleShuffle
    this is so boring
  14. TruffleShuffle
    damn baker almost gave a boost to his awesome .122 OPS against RHP. not batting average. OPS.
  15. TruffleShuffle
    Look. It's not about getting guys at bats, it's about winning games. We just need to start winning games because that's all that matters. yeah i love when lou just throws his hands up and says there's nothing he can do about his players not performing. well let's see, you could actually pay attention to how your players are performing, look up some splits or not determine your bullpen usage with a blindfold and a dartboard.

    4 IP, 4 H, 2 R, 1 BB, 5 K, 1 HBP for jackson. he was rolling along pretty well until he gave up a triple, walk and two singles with two outs in the 4th inning. probably got tired because of the idiotic bullpen stint.

    john ely in his minor league career had a .270 BAA and 1.40 WHIP against LH batters, and a .237 BAA and 1.09 WHIP against RH batters. but hell let's play two RH batters who hit lefties way better than they hit righties while leaving two lefthanded batters on the bench. great managing you senile old turd.
  18. TruffleShuffle
    [expletive] off, lou
  19. TruffleShuffle
    He's going to have to be a #1 starter with Cashner and Jackson in the pen now. I hate the [expletive] Cubs. When is Ricketts going to step in and hire someone with some intelligence? well jay jackson started today, so who knows what the hell they're doing.
  20. TruffleShuffle
    90.7 LOB%, .226 babip, 1.8 HR/FB%.... the baseball gods are certainly looking kindly upon him
  21. TruffleShuffle
    "I haven't paid too much attention to it" "Really? How about that?" "That is surprising. I wasn't aware of that." this guy is making $4 million to manage the cubs.
  22. TruffleShuffle
    way to get that run in from third
  23. TruffleShuffle
    this is where choking earlier in the game with bases loaded and no outs hurts... or throwing away runs with wretched fielding. guess we should just be glad we still have a chance.
  24. TruffleShuffle
    okay now it's lee's turn to make an error... let's go for the golden sombrero of infield defense.
  25. TruffleShuffle
    yes, you're thinking way too much into it. every game played at the superdome could be a home game for the saints. every game in miami could be a home game for the dolphins, glendale for the cardinals, etc.
