  1. And? He was there to make the play. Soriano misread the ball. His false movement could have been the difference between making the out or not.
  2. 80 pitches for Big Z. Bases loaded for the Reds, no out.
  3. Soriano broke back before charging in on that ball.
  4. Why would you do that? 5-0 Cubs. Z on the mound. OVA!
  5. Everything is going our way today. Losing streak = ova.
  6. :shock: Amazing snow cone catch by DLee. WOW.
  7. And all 3 attempts have been successful and iirc, with 2 outs. I like Lou's philosophy of running on the battery of Harang and Valentin.
  8. Right, Bob said the same. I don't buy it though since the Reds 2B obviously wasn't in position to tag Barrett out; his only play was for a quick flip to the SS covering the 2b bag.
  9. It fits with the taste of their beer.
  10. So DLee still has a hit in every game this season, right?
  11. Atta kid DLee. Nice looking swing.
  12. These batting helmets haven't grown on me.
  13. Nice throw from Jones. :roll: Trying to kill more worms.
  14. The ump isn't giving him any close calls though.
  15. Is it just me, or did anyone else not know Ram hurt his wrist in spring training?
  16. The Dawson's Creek one, "I don't wanna wait, for our lives to be over..."?
  17. Stiffness in his pitching shoulder. EDIT: Come to think of it, he should be eligible to come off the DL soon.
  18. At this point, isn't service time to the Cubs rather irrelevant? I have come to the belief that he is the Cubs' 2000 version of the 1990's Mike Harkey, a heralded pitcher who got hurt and may never be the same. Yeah, at this point, I think the organization needs to be more concerned with the cost of Prior ($4 million per year) than the service time he has left. If he's healthy, Prior's worth more than $4 million, but if he doesn't pitch one game for the Cubs, the team could have used that money towards a contributing player.
  19. Marquis impressed me with the way he pitched through jams created by poor defense. In one inning the Astros had men on first and second with nobody out, yet he didn't allow a run to score. A couple innings later he was in a bases loaded jam (thanks in part to his walks and an Izturis error) yet he only allowed one run to score. Marquis did a good job avoiding the big inning and keeping the game close. Had he not been forced to throw so many extra pitches due to the Cubs errors, it's reasonable to expect him to have pitched at least one more inning. Granted, he wouldn't have been guaranteed to pitch it scoreless, but I like what I saw from Marquis today, and in his first start of the season.
  20. The defense really frustrated me today. Izturis's three errors, Marquis's questionable throw, Lee's failed scoop and Barrett's failure to know how to position himself, allowing wild pitches. Marquis impressed me with the way he pitched over bad defense, and Lee and Ram extend their hitting streaks. Derosa and Izturis need a day off.
