  1. assuming no one grounds out to Jeter. But, with his range they might not.
  2. true cause he wouldnt even have got to it.
  3. 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:
  4. No Yeah the graphic was wrong. And of course that is right to Griffey.
  5. Lee could help that out a bunch right here.
  6. Take away all the errors and the BS strike 3 on Kosuke and it's probably 3-0 Cubs. Dunn did homer though.
  7. The Cardinals think they should be batting 1 and 2 for us.
  8. and to think we just put in Ronny at 3rd and DeRo at 2B we might be up 1-0. Thanks Lou. Whatever you do don't play our best guys.
  9. 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 Tell me in what way he has been different than Dusty was in reguards to lineup construction or handing out playing time.
