This is when he should be used...I hate to say it, but you need his defense in close games. I could see if you had the lead, but I'm not sure his defense is more important than Walker's offense right now. The Cubs have 3 hits. Walker just got the last out...you want to try and win the game now at this point, not later.
Not his best, but it was way too deep for the SS to be taking instead of the CF. Pierre is just plain awful out there. I know his arm sucks, but do his stats show that his CF fielding is crap, too? I always thought he was considered a pretty decent CF when it came to doing Hendry's favorite thing.
If the Cubs could net Abreu for Barrett, holy crap, do it. Offense with a catcher is a nice bonus...a big bat in the OF is beyond critical at this point.
I see zero reason to make him pitch every 5 days short of him dominating today for at least 6 full innings. Put him on a 10 day rotation and split his 5 day spots with Guzman and give both a chance to work off their injuries.
You want to make me a sig of what "Dusty's Toys" should be?? B/c I don't know how. I got it on another forum. If you want to make me one w/ Neifi, Rusch, Bynum, Pagan, and Nevin, go ahead. Nevin shouldn't be in there, either.
From what I read, Hendry's body language blatantly indicated there was no chance of Sammy coming back. His face said nothing, but his blubber-sack shook "NO!!!"
No wonder him dropping his pants to show off that he didn't hurt himself after the snapping the bat caused everyone to stare. Everybody knows Zambrano has 3 dongs. I hope he jacks one tonight.
