Why is someone intentionally throwing a baseball at someone else a good thing. It is pathetic. If Springer can't get him out, he should just walk him. But what is worse is the reation by supposed fans of baseball. What if it were Sosa?

Jacque Jones: Can We Trade him for Corey Patterson?
CubinNY replied to Old Style's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
I wouldn't be a bit surprized if he asked to be traded after tonight. It's one thing to boo and quite another to have junk thrown at you from the bleachers... by your own fans. -
Good outing by Z and finally a little luck. I hope this is the start of something big.
-
How could Zambrano possible get upset. He walked the first guy and had thrown over 100 pitches and he is trying to protect a lead. Your logic is so bad it isn't even wrong. In fact it is beyond absurd and into sublime.
-
One thing I've noticed about Baker. He'll never preemptively have the bullpen warming up in these situations. He always waits until the first sign of trouble and usually doesn't pull the pitcher until it's too late. Baker is reactive rather than proactive. perhaps it's a show of confidence in z??? the guy's quite proven. no need to be pessimistic. Z looked terrible, and he was clearly tired. The Cubs, and Zambrano, got very lucky there. And who cares about showing confidence in him? The Cubs need to win, not make Zambrano feel better by having no one up in the 'pen. That's plain old bad managing. Not replacing Z was a mistake, and it was then compounded by leaving him in there for 20 pitches. I wonder if Rothschild says anyting to Dusty. Larry: Hey, Skip Z looks a little gassed. Dusty: You think? Larry: Well, he walked the first guy and the next two tatooed the ball Dusty: Really, I wasn't paying attention. I guess I should get someone up in the pen.

Dusty is actively trying to get fired. It's like Costanza eating Strawberrys and wiping them on the Babe's Jersey.
-
Are you confusing Russ Springer with Russ Ortiz? I don't recall Springer being a Giant. Could be. I'm a little giddy with the good pitching outing and decent effort from the offense, sans JJ.
-
Didn't Springer use to play for the Giants? That could explain a few things.
-
Yes. This is the last year of MLB.TV for me. They haven't improved it from the first year it was offered. Waste of $100 Way to go Z. BTW> It is much more fun to read the replys to the troll when he's on ignore.
-
Z is back.
-
Your posts are annoying.
-
Aramis! And the flood gates are OPEN. The score should be about 8-0. And Jones is getting roundly booed.
-
Not according to Dusty. Last year he blamed it on not learning it in the minors. Inadvertenly blaming Hendry and the Cubs minor league coaching staff.
-
Damn it. Jones has to have some punishment for this. How can Dusty let him go back out on to the field? How can Jones want to go out there after that? Do they have no pride? For the love of Mike.
-
If I'm Dusty I pull Jones right now. There is no excuse for this crap. I cannot beleive it. I just can't.
-
Nice AB for Ronny. Worked the count to 3-2.
-
Cedeno should be agressive IN THE ZONE. If it ain't a strike leave it alone.
-
They're getting to grand pa now. Big inning here.
-
I hope Dusty says something to Barrett when he gets back to the dugout.
-
I really doubt that order came from the dugout. Just Barrett overthinking. Don't think Michael, just hit.
-
WTF WTF WTF
-
Don't waste this one.
-
Santo says the Cubs are "mental"
-
Are you part-cyborg? Simply amazing! Being a long-time numbers junkie, I appreciate your stats! :) Boggles the mind what you can do with a good database program, no ?? I was always more of a spreadsheet specialist. :wink: I did used to track Cubs stats on my own spreadsheets, back in the days when I did not have Internet and could not easily access what I wanted. Well, sonny.... I used to track CUBS stats with stone tablets & chisels back when I was kid !! :wink: Fred "Flintsone" Hornkoh. I appreciate your work Fred. You are the MVP of gamethreads.

Cedeno will be ok, the Cub will just have to live through the growing pains.
