  1. Can the Cubs (Walker, now Z) stop tossing the ball underhand - or with the glove - it always makes me nervous!
  2. All but 2 hits have been to Burnitz today.... how many more slicers can they hit?
  3. I posted this in the GameThread, but it likely fits better here... From ESPN chat with Baseball America: Dave B. (Portland, OR): Hi Jim, I'm curious about Matt Murton's projections in the Majors. He's currently platooned in LF - think he can hit righties well enough to stick (Dusty Baker be darned!)? Jim Callis: (3:18 PM ET ) He can hit righthanders--his bat isn't a question. Outside of his arm, he has nice all-around tools. I think he'll be a solid big league regular if Dusty Baker gives him the chance to play.
  4. Thanks ump! Saves a run with the passed ball otherwise?
  5. Here's my question to Jim Callis from BA on ESPN just now: Dave B. (Portland, OR): Hi Jim, I'm curious about Matt Murton's projections in the Majors. He's currently platooned in LF - think he can hit righties well enough to stick (Dusty Baker be darned!)? Jim Callis: (3:18 PM ET ) He can hit righthanders--his bat isn't a question. Outside of his arm, he has nice all-around tools. I think he'll be a solid big league regular if Dusty Baker gives him the chance to play.
  6. Maybe he was talking to Alou about that swing before the game?
  7. At least Holly's silky D is making up for his terrible bat...
  8. These SF announcers are roasting Holly.
  9. Tomko can't throw a strike to Lefties today.
  10. Did the SF announcers say TWalk is looking in for the catcher's position?
  11. Lineup card 1, Dusty 0. Nice swing at that Fastball Down the Middle Question! Gone....
  12. SF announcers are making fun of Holly's 10 SO's....
  13. I don't think so. I think they only lose the DH if the person who was the DH is brought in to play a position on the field. I'm not positive though. O.K., I don't watch the AL if I can help it, but I'm confused as to what you're talking about? How do you 'lose' the DH?
  14. Let Vizquel run - I'll take his (17 SB w/9 caught stealing) vs. Blanco. Or a hit, darn!
  15. I think this lineup wins for "Worst of the Year". Zambrano should be batting 5th - seriously.
  16. For those who like VORP as a stat - Hollandsworth in 260 PA = 0.9: Murton in 32 = 5.9. Just for fun Murton also leads St. Neifi (396PA, 4.4 VORP - brutal!). Just curious if anyone has this stat or a better number from your memory - infield hits for Murton. I can think of 3 maybe 4 (of his 12H in 26AB). Seems to me he's had a bit of luck in his very very brief big league career. Just an observation.
