  1. It's a good idea to pitch a righty against the Brewers. It's just not a good idea to pitch Marquis. Ever.
  2. I think that's Braun's first XBH vs. a righty this year.
  3. Currently 14th ranked OF in standard Yahoo leagues.
  4. To borrow from PJ O'Rourke, Giving Lou Piniella the opportunity to call for stolen bases is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys. It's strange, because that was one of the things that he was praised for when he was hired. His teams during his managerial career had always been one of the best in stolen base percentage. I don't remember him being this aggressive (and reckless) last year. He was. IIRC, Dan Fox's work at Baseball Prospectus showed the Cubs were the worst basestealing team in the majors last year.
  5. Why burn up Howry when Hart could accomplish the same thing?
  6. "They call it a sacrifice because you are...literally...dying."
  7. But hey man, he DOES play the game the right way.........that's got to count for something? Right? Right? I guess it doesn't. You know who I hate? Aramis Ramirez. When he hits the ball, he runs clockwise. That is not playing the game the right way.
  8. Wow, that was some bad baseball by Aaron Boone.
  9. Uhh...no. Please tell me this was sarcasm. It's not like we don't have two starters in the bullpen, and the Nats have their ace on the mound. Runs could be hard to come by. It's the fourth inning, Dempster IS a starter, and he's given up one hit. Two.
  10. Uhh...no. Please tell me this was sarcasm. It's not like we don't have two starters in the bullpen, and the Nats have their ace on the mound. Runs could be hard to come by.
  11. Lou didn't he is not looking happy about it at all. The Cubs cost themselves more runs than any other team getting CS last year, IIRC. If Lou didn't want them to run, they wouldn't run.
  12. They're not the worst I've ever heard. Pretty boring. They think Hendry is a good GM, so they're not bright.
  13. Dempster career OPS against: Lefties: .856 Righties: .707
  14. Short-term split data really isn't predictive.
