  1. Devil's advocate: Does Marquis have any consecutive quality starts this season?
  2. I love Theriot's offensive performance, but damn, he stinks at SS. No range and a noodle arm. I wish that part of him could pick it up.
  3. That last part just gave me the odd image of him just sitting there across form his wife and son, staring at them intensely.
  4. And who hasn't giving up a run yet this year.
  5. Why pull Lieber after the 6th? Anticipating a short leash on Marquis tomorrow?
  6. Dear Lord, Plesac, please, no more Big Blue Train.
  7. I'm hoping the Cubs offense takes care of this for Lou. Because I believe Lou would bring in Marmol in a game of 5 or less runs. The Cubs just need to blow the doors open for a few days (Till the 2nd game of the Dodgers) to get Marmol some rest. I still don't know why Lou took Lieber out after 1 inning. Maybe he's forseeing a short outing by Marquis tomorrow, but I wanted Lieber to go through the 7th, then use anyone but Marmol and Wood for the last 2.
  8. I thought the glare was me going into the light as my heart exploded.
  9. Marquis has to go 6 full innings tomorrow. At least. Be a hero, hump. It's a godforsaken pitcher's park, so here's your chance.
  10. He's given up 9 earned runs this year, five of them in two games where he recorded no outs. We won both of those games. He hasn't given up multiple runs in any other game this year. In fact, we've only lost one game this year in which he gave up a run(s), the 5-4 loss to Pittsburgh on May 24. A) I'm talking aout career numbers, not a 2 month sample size B) The numbers you just gave me are not very telling since they don't account for situations like tonight. He didn't give up a run but he clearly was not good. Close and late, in his career, he has a .575 ops against. What a choker. WHAT. SHUT UP. YOU CRAZY. GET OUTTA HERE.
  11. 2008: late and close: .184 .225 .263 tie: .158 .227 .211 within 1 run: .229 .269 .313 DAMN YOU, FACTS.
  12. Haw-haw...Marmol still has to carry the backpack.
  13. you realize he has a 148 ERA+ coming into tonight, right? Don't bother. Wuertz is the poster boy for the "but he looks bad to me" train of thought.
  14. I hate him being used, but God help me, I love watching him pitch.
  15. Very nice recovery for Cotts after that leadoff walk.
  16. Huh. It would be nice if the "lightning in a bottle" theory worked once in terms of signing older vets. Then again, even Neifi and Womack had their hot stretches. Then again, those guys didn't have careers like Edmonds.
  17. He was joking. Blind squirrel...nut...yadda-yadda-yadda.
