    Indeed.

    I think Marquis' beard is throwing off his balance at the plate.

    Izturis with a double. :shock: He didn't do much to prove Cubs fans wrong about him last year, but since spring began he's more like Omar Vizquel than Cesar Izturis.
  4. Rob
    He looked atrocious out there. At this point, I'd rather have Murton in as a defensive sub.
  5. Rob
    who would you have hit there? that's the izturis we know and love. It works, and Cub fans complain. :? Some people are pre-programmed to complain about anything. You guys will know when I'm complaining. That was simply an observation. I've resigned myself to the fact that not every play Lou makes is the one that I would. I'm not about to complain about it. But if I can't open my mouth and point out when he's doing something differently than I would have without people jumping all over me for it, then that's absolutely ridiculous. It seems to me as though people are spending more time whining about the perceived negativity than the negativity itself is being pushed.

    who would you have hit there? that's the izturis we know and love. Either Murton or Ward. DeRosa vs. RHP .260/.316/.366 Murton vs. RHP .289/.351/.436 Ward vs. RHP .267/.318/.457
  7. Rob
    Not a very smart play leaving DeRosa in, but it paid off.
  8. Rob
    Actually bunting in the late stages of the game with a slim lead isn't necessarily a bad idea. I'm a stats guy, and I agree with the call.
  9. Rob
    Coffey is gonna have a heart attack.
  10. Rob
    Theriot instead of Murton?
  11. Rob
    I held my breath on that one...

    It's a bit of a concern that it took this long to get, though. Yea a game and 2/3rd's is an ETERNITY. Did I say that it was anything more than "a bit of a concern" ? If I told you I was worrying like crazy, your overly sarcastic remark might have been appropriate. As is, it simply makes you look like you lack reading comprehension skills... something I am sure is probably not the case.

    How did Soriano hit that?
  15. Rob
    Rule clarification time. If Encarnacion scores after that catchers interference, is that an earned run against Lilly?

    I completely forgot to pick up some chewing tobacco. It's baseball season! I can't even begin to express how disgusted I am Then don't. I'll let you know when your opinion interests me. :roll: Speaking of tobacco.. does Sosa chew tobacco during games? Or is that sunflower seeds in his cheek? My dad always thought it was tobacco. I always just assumed it was tobacco. I know Mark Grace used to have some big pinches in his mouth, though.

    More of a permanent gimmick. It's a shame they aren't better looking then. I'd be more inclined to go to see them if they weren't the sort of girl I could pick up at the bar on any given weekend.

    ran out to LF to make a difficult catch in foul territory Was that in foul territory? I thought it was still fair when he made the catch.
  21. Rob
    Pitches through 4: Arroyo - 69 Lilly - 53
  22. Rob
    Lilly is matching Arroyo strikeout for strikeout.
  23. Rob
    And pretty hard, at that.
  24. Rob
    Ted Lilly went to bunt... not sure why. He popped it up, and Arroyo, Encarnacion, and Ross all sort of let it drop. Then, Arroyo grabbed the ball and fired to second instead of home. Floyd scored, and Lilly was running hard enough there was no chance for a double play.
  25. Rob
    If BalsaWood is in here, I just have to point out that Jones would have probably scored on that if he were in the 5th spot and Floyd were batting 2nd. I have no idea what just happened there.
