    Why does Piniella keep going with this guy? Now is not the time to have an automatic loss in the rotation. It worked in '03 with Estes I guess.
  2. illiniguy
    But were gonna let him go one more hitter, you know til we are down 3 runs.
  3. illiniguy
    I wonder how many homers Braun would have if they would have had him up all year?
  4. illiniguy
    Everyone got their extra day of rest. Can we go back to the regular 5-man? This move reeks of Jim Hendry. Tracshell wasn't very good ten years ago.

    I would hope Homer Bailey is hurt. Otherwise this clown pitching is ridiculous.
  6. illiniguy
    Oh yay for you.

    this game was lost in the bot of the 7th. two on no outs and they let votto face king, instead of putting in a lefty. Then they let Ross hit. Thanks reds.

    dear lord, someone get this ump a guide to the strikezone.
  9. illiniguy
    BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Yeah the inning should have been over. They struck out Fielder on two pitches. Yet both times he was awarded a ball.

    marmol is awesome.
  11. illiniguy
    look, now that corner is a strike again.
  12. illiniguy
    the umpire sure did change this game around in a hurry.

    Why do you play a guy with a .315 obp everyday? The wonders of Lou Piniella.
  14. illiniguy
    awesome call there Lou.
  15. illiniguy
    finally one of our ropes gets through.

    When I saw the other day that it was Trachsel vs. Morris I seriously had to check to make sure it wasn't 1998 How foolish is it to have him in the rotation over Marshall. Reasons like that are why we have to get rid of Hendry. There was no need to add the guy.

    christ tracshel is going tomorrow.
  18. illiniguy
    how ridiculously cub like. pull the ball a bit fellas.

    Wayne Krivsky? Jared Burton was a pretty good rule 5 pick as well. I only mention this because Krivsky has taken such a beating on this board; he's actually managed to add a nice amount of talent to that team at a negligible cost, but his significant good moves tend to be brushed aside so we can make fun of him for trading obvious studs like Kearns and Lopez away for nothing. He has his flaws but yeah, you gotta give him some credit for recognizing talent. Lopez: .244/.306/.356 Kearns: .267/.350/.407 Replaced with: Gonzalez: .277/.330/.478 Hamilton: .297/.374/.566 Who would you rather have? How much of that is your ballpark vs. RFK? Not enough to make up the entire difference between each group. Fair enough, but I would rather have Hamilton and Lopez on a year to year basis.

    It was a bad start. He really had nothing... Carp, I hope we get a good one out of Z tomorrow.

    So, was Rich Hill as bad as his line looked tonight? I don't know I didn't catch the first 8 innings?
  24. illiniguy
    That was my first thought. I was reading the story with my wife (a Cardinals fan) and the first thing I said was "wow, this happened under the eagle-eye watch of Tony LaRussa?" Maybe silly coincidence, but who knows. Well this would have happened when Ankiel was in spring training down in Florida. So it would be pretty hard for Larussa to know what he was doing down there. This is true, it just seems like that LaRussa is always around the crap. I wonder if he knew Chris Benoit. LOL.

    I also don't know if it is just a coincidence or not, but man Tony Larussa seems to be around a lot of this. The bash brothers, McGwire chasing Maris, and Ankiel.
