  1. Mainly the bullpen? The offense hasn't been too great either. The offense shouldn't have to score 10 runs against the freaking Brewers to get a W. yesterday they only needed to score 4.
  2. yeah patton should not be on the roster of a team that hopes to contend for a pennant.
  3. give me a break with that GW goal.
  4. well lee is hurt and the other option would have been to PH a guy like reed johnson and then put aaron miles at first base. of course hoffpauir doesn't bat there if the team is healthy. that's on lou for being a bad manager, not on the bullpen.
  5. we also had 1st and 3rd with 0 out in the first inning and didn't score.
  6. wow lee is in his late 30s already? someone must have put him on that machine in the princess bride.
  7. what exactly does "reduction needed dr." mean?
  8. some decent options out there. i actually like branyan quite a bit, but he'll have a low average (eventually) and offer no SBs. rolen isn't that good anymore and is playing over his head. reynolds comes with the same problems as branyan. i guess i'd go branyan, blalock, teahen in that order.
  9. that's probably more an indictment about the quality of the cubs' minor league system than it is an endorsement of the players you're discussing.
  10. apparently he ran into a pitching staff whose strength is throwing fastballs down the middle of the plate.
  11. i would've been all for getting ryan freel 3 years ago, but now after all the injuries i suspect he's about done.
  12. cantu isn't really a third baseman, although i suppose he's passable there.
  13. the ball's a foot outside, i'd be pissed too. He's been calling it all night. I've said it's not a strike, but you've got to protect there. i suppose, but hallion should lose his job if he's not going to call games properly.
  14. miles K hoff doubles wild pitch sends him to third bradley K fontenot walk koyie hill or someone pops out
  15. it became really predictable when theriot and soto choked last inning.
  16. bullpen wants to get that walk rate up above 5 per 9 IP.
  17. varlamov was awful. he was the reason they lost that game. there was at least one, maybe two really obvious penalties that weren't called on the caps' third goal. carolina and their 35 fans must be really excited right now.
