    Maybe he'll flip something on tonight, but if the Cubs win this one I'd love to see Lee sit tomorrow and get 2 days off...so win, jerks!

    Great photos...love that last one of Wood! Thanks for sharing!

    Wow, good catch!

    While I agree that Murton should have gotten more time early on and Floyd is most certainly NOT a better option, it's not like Murton hasn't had any chances this year to show that last year wasn't just an extended fluke or a young player hitting ahead of himself before the league got a look at him. He's had fits and spurts of quality this year, but, in my opinion, overall he's played way under the potential he showed last year. I understand the argument for more playing time, but how is he helping his cause by showing that he's potentially as pseudo-useless as Floyd (but much younger) when he does get a chance to play? Are we really saying that Murton is "forgetting" about good baseball if he isn't playing reguarly? He's pretty far from being that green a player. Look, I'm not slamming the guy like he's awful, but he's shown little to indicate he's an OFer with this team down the line given the current construction of the team. I want guys like Floyd and Jones gone and I think Murton could hopefully help fill their slots...but as trade bait. Ssdly, his trade appeal seems to be slipping with almost each appearance.

    right, implants are a bad thing now? implants are horrible. I can't stand them. You've either never experienced them "in real life" or the ones you encountered were a botched job. I am shocked and dismayed that the fake Cardinal girl with the deceptive bust is winning.

    Dempster gets it done. Wuertz, you're a jerk. All of the pitching was outstanding except for him.
  8. Sammy Sofa
    Dempster not funking around.
  9. Sammy Sofa
    Wuertz is showing himself to be a one-hitter reliever...dude can get one out and then everything else is hard work.
  10. Sammy Sofa
    Wuertz hurts tonight.

    I was all about Bradley this time around and when he was available before, too.
  12. Sammy Sofa
    OK, Lee is either hurt or there's something going on in his personal life that's REALLY got his head out of the game. I hope his daughter is OK.

    What happens if Marshall stays in? Does his arm fall off after 80 pitches? Geez, I know you need to protect young pitchers, but that's freakin' ridiculous. It had nothing to do with the pitch count. Piniella was trying to break the game open there and it backfired on him. Once again, Piniella overmanaging. I don't think so. Agreed. Marshall looks like he's allergic to lumber when he goes up to bat. Granted, Ward didn't work out, but I'd much rather have him batting over Marshall in that situation.

    I've come to the conclusion that you're the most dedicated "character poster" this board has ever had.

    How was that on the ump? Two fastballs right down the chute and then Theriot clearly came around.
  16. Sammy Sofa
    Typical Cubs.
  17. Sammy Sofa
    RATS.
  18. Sammy Sofa
    No matter the result, infinitely better AB for Pie!
  19. Sammy Sofa
    Felix, PLEASE take some pitches!

    What Cub pitcher has done that??? Gm# Date Opponent Score Starter Opp Starter 64 Wed 06/13 Seattle N 3- 2 Marshall Batista 66 Fri 06/15 San Diego 4- 1 Lilly Wells 80 Sun 07/01 Milwaukee 5- 1 Marquis Bush 91 Mon 07/16 San Francisco N 3- 2 Hill Lincecum 99 Wed 07/25 @ St. Louis N 7- 1 Lilly Wainright 4 Fri 04/06 @ Milwaukee N 9- 3 Hill Bush 26 Wed 05/02 @ Pittsburgh 7- 1 Marquis Snell 31 Wed 05/09 Pittsburgh 1- 0 Marquis Gorzelanny 45 Thu 05/24 @ San Diego N 3- 1 Marquis Young Wow, Marquis can get some low pitch counts Even when he gets pulled early his counts are typically low, he's just given up too many runs on too few pitches. He doesn't seem to have to work a lot when he slips like most of our other starters...if Marquis sucks, he gives 'em up fast!
  21. Sammy Sofa
    Man, I was so anti-Kendall, but he is REALLY good at working the counts. Even whe he gets an out he makes the pitchers work.
  22. Sammy Sofa
    Santa, please bring us power!
  23. Sammy Sofa
    AWESOME!

    Just shut up. Ok I have repsect for what he's done in the past..But for what he's done the past few years..which is nothing..He ask for a raise..Is that right?? Hell no..Plus The whole " Hi, Im just an employee thing" Then finally five freakin years later he gets surgery..I used loved him..But the things he's said and has done over the years has really chnaged my mind He pitched very, very well in 2004. He pitched pretty damn well in 2005. 2006 was the 1st year that we got nothing out of him. What has he "said and done" over the years besides the one quote you posted that has been so negative compared to other players? And he didn't get surgery before because all the doctors, the Cubs' included, said he didn't need it. Now that's his fault? I swear, some people just want to make up crap so they can hate someone.

    Dammit, Felix...he's taken 2 pitches tonight!
