    Just got home. Nice win! What the hell is Lou thinking with Marmol going 2 innings? Seriously??!?! It's beyond stupid!

    Well he did say after the game it's really swollen. That makes me nervous. Until I see him in the lineup I'm preparing myself for the worst.

    I was thinking this as well. I'm still kind of incredulous that Brewers fans still consider Sheets their #1. Accidents waiting to happen should be re-evaluated a bit and the best starter with at least a chance of staying healthy should be considered as such. We did the same with Prior/Wood. We just prayed that one of them would hold up for a year. I don't miss that feeling.

    It's only a matter of time...

    That would really suck if Ram is out today.

    He hasn't been throwing strikes ever since he showed up in Mesa this year. To be honest, I'm worried he's hiding an injury. his velocity seems to be fine. I think he's mechanically a mess right now. Give him some time in AAA to get back on track. He'll be fine.

    Ridiculous. Hill is a frigging major-league pitcher. He should be able to throw strikes after skipping a start. He had side sessions and bullpen work. It's not like he didn't pick up a baseball for six months. Why are people here to ready to apologize for certain players and so ready to jump all over coaches? Why does the coaching staff deserve the benefit of the doubt? Their awesome 85-win season? I never said they did. I just think it's weird to blame the coaching staff, and not Rich Hill, for the fact he couldn't throw the ball 45 feet last night. You always hear about certain pitchers needing to stay on a strict 5 day routine or it throws them off. This has been said about numerous pitchers. If you were to go look over game logs throughout the years, and take every pitcher who is pitching on 7,8 or even 9 days rest Ill bet you control has been a problem. But he had control problems even before the 9 day layoff.

    His over-managing is a bit out of control this year.

    What I find interesting is Dusty and now Lou has handled him the same.
  10. C.C.
    He wasn't right before the 9 days rest.
  11. C.C.
    And every pitcher is different. Hill will work his way out of it...Probably in AAA where he's always done well. I don't understand why people are so against this idea?
  12. C.C.
    I'm guessing he's out today...
  13. C.C.
    Don't forget, he was also throwing a no-hitter last night. (My first opportunity to use the green sarcasm color) Cards didn't have to hit it.
  14. C.C.
    Giving Hill a couple of starts in AAA to regain his control and composure is not a bad thing.

    Don't expect Ram today.. I hope he's okay? BTW - It's time! I'm pulling out the "slump-buster" pseudo-soccer Cubs shirt that I bought in Aruba. Sit back and relax, we'll win today...
  16. C.C.
    With the problems the Brewers have, and the Cards will come back down to earth, it looks like it'll take 80ish wins to take the central again.
  17. C.C.
    This to.
  18. C.C.
    Send the kid down to AAA. Let him find his control.
  19. C.C.
    I guess a year of not being the Cubs was too much to ask for. The suckage continues tonight.
  20. C.C.
    He couldn't find the plate for whatever reason. It just seems once things start to go bad he can't flip the switch.
  21. C.C.
    I've watched enough of crappy baseball tonight. I'm putting in a movie. Later...
  22. C.C.
    So I guess we stopped taking pitches? This is going to be a short night.
  23. C.C.
    Dude, he walked 4 guys in the first inning.
  24. C.C.
    yea, that will show'em!
  25. C.C.
    This is painful.
