  1. Thank you, Wuertz. Now please finish it. Neal Cotts is behind you, and that's like putting out a fire with an a-bomb.
  2. It will be a stright up miracle if the Cubs somehow win this game. Lou better kill someone.
  3. Z, your awesome hitting doesn't mean you can forget how to pitch. This is going to end badly.
  4. Z, we need you to be an ace, not an ass.
  5. Alright Z, that makes the walks seem not that bad.
  6. Why are people pissed at Barrett trying to avoid the tag? That's what these guys are taught to do.
  7. Cedeno practicing in the outfield? Excuse me... *PUKE*
  8. Where the hell is all this competent small ball coming from?
  9. i read his best month is april usually...correct me if i am wrong though I remember them talking about that on TV. He usually starts out hot. Well, it's not like the guy forgot how to hit. I'm assuming he's just pressing with the new team and the new contract.
  10. Wow, the grass is just stopping balls dead today.
  11. Nice glovework by The Riot, but I'm glad we have a mighty giant playing 1st.
  12. Way to take care of that lead, Carlos.

  14. Hey, one year and a day since Lee when down with his wrist "issues," right? And Nomar's groin exploding exactly one year before that? Good to see things are on schedule.
  15. That's quite a stretch. Am I the only one who sees a pattern here? Tell me why a young pitcher, can't make it out of ST for four straight seasons ready to pitch in a big league game? Every year, he has had 5 months to rest, rehab, strengthen whatever, and he still can't get ready. How do the other guys do it? Please don't tell me he was overused by Dusty, that is the lamest excuse I have ever heard, and was 4 years ago. There are many pitchers, that have pitched 200+ innings year after year, and he has only done it once. This guy is missing something, and it isn't talent, but talent doesn't matter if you can't take the ball. He was overused by Dusty. Really overused. Then your saying one year of 211 innings fried this guy? If that is the case, he was not meant to be a starting pitcher in the bigs. It wasn't that long ago, starting pitchers would pitch every 4th day, compile 300+ innings per year, and complete 20+ games per year. Today, if you throw 200+, and have 4-5 complete games, you are abused. You're leaving out the fact it was his first full year and he was still very young. It's a general rule of thumb to not overextend brand new pitchers to a workload like that when they first show up.
