Johnson isn't necessarily replacing Pie

Why would they use a GOOD hitter to bat? To get a guy on base

Reds hitting the ball hard, this is probably Demp's last inning.

It would have been 598, not 599. But awesome! Oops :oops:

Pie's catch: http://media.putfile.com/Felix-Pie-robs-Griffey-of-599

Brantley shot it down right away though by reminding Thom of the tests that MLB does. Brantley's not in the booth

Go to gameday... they'll have the in-game highlight soon. Cubs have all the momentum... keep chipping away!

Pie made Griffey look like Mike Fontenot

PIE!!!!!!! WOW

Yeah. Damn him walking and getting called out at second on a B.S. call. Where do you people get this stuff? What has he done this year besides strikeout nonstop? His defense is the only thing saving him. Pie is terrible! End of story! Let's see Johnson vs. Pie Speed Pie D Pie Power Pie Hitting for average Johnson patience Johnson Yep totally give me Johnson everyday. :roll: Reed destroys Pie and OBP, walks, and Ks though

It's still early. We'll score more, just gotta hold'em The Reds B.P. still sucks, right?

That ball was crushed... Cubs should be winning this damn game.

No

Alright! Lets keep the 2 out rally going

Theriot should never ever swing on 2-0.

Take away all the errors and the BS strike 3 on Kosuke and it's probably 3-0 Cubs.

I'm pretty sure Pie should have been called safe, but it doesn't matter anyway.

At this point, it wouldn't be a bad idea. Too bad the players would be Rich Hill, Felix Pie, Sean Gallagher, Ronny Cedeno, Sean Marshall, and Jose Ceda. I don't mind getting rid of Hill and Pie. Or Marquis Or Theriot ... or Fontenot.

The negativity around here really is ridiculous, and this is coming from a pessimist. Every teams goes through their ups and downs. The Cubs will be fine. They get at least 1 this inning.

Cool! You predicted it... now lets all tell you how smart you our for predicting the obvious.

Probably October

Yeah because everyone else has been hammering Cueto for us. How about we give him a month straight to play instead of only playing him against right handers with electric stuff. Lou is setting him up to fail. Normally I would agree with you......but cmon, he has been horsecrap the last 5 games he's played He went 2 for 4 with a double in the Cardinals series. Your stats are really killing his theory. I never posted a theory lol. I'm thinking he's looking just overmatched and lost at the plate. I knew he was amazing in AAA....I just find it hard to believe that he cant at least foul of some pitches and look like a major leaguer. How is it that a "stud" prospect cannot hit lefties AT ALL? That's an honest question A lot of guys are like that. Justin Upton looked lost at times last year. The difference is they stick with him and don't play some cast off like Reed Johnson everyday. Let the young kid play through his struggles. You would be suprised what he could do. I really want to see him succeed, I just can't see him do so in the near future. But if he does I'll be happily surprised I just want to know so we can make a decision on what to do in reguards to centerfield in the future. If this year plays out the same way it has been, we still won't know. Reed Johnson isn't the answer to any good question, Pie might be. Don't we owe it to ourselves to find out? I wholeheartedly agree. I'd love nothing more then to bench Reed Johnson, along with Fontenot and Theriot for a long time. Yeah, but it isn't going to happen. We repalced Dusty Baker with his white counterpart. Unreal

According to Thom the Cubs sent Sean Hill down last week.

That's not even a webgem, IMO.
