Sorry to be such a pain, can anyone give me a quick recap? I know there was a brawl between Pierzinski and Barrett, what happened? How was Hill? What happened to Ramirez? Thanks in advance.
Pierre hasn't publically questioned the fans, nor has he been doubled off second three times in three weeks. They're both awful at this point, but at least Jones has picked it up after a bad start.
My guesses are never right: http://chicago.cubs.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/news/press_releases/press_release.jsp?ymd=20060518&content_id=1459758&vkey=pr_chc&fext=.jsp&c_id=chc
Agreed. On a team this bad there should be very few untouchables. If a replacement can be found for Ramirez and the offer is good enough, he should be shipped in a heartbeat. Wood may become a valuable trading chip as well if he comes back to form before the break.
I have a hard time coming up with any list of keepers but here goes (25 man roster): Potential keepers: Murton Cedeno Lee Marshall Zambrano Barrett Pagan Eyre Howry Dempster Maddux Absolutely must go: Perez Bynum Pierre Jones Walker Ramirez Mabry Blanco Non-Decided: Wood Prior Hill Guzman Theriot Discuss
Come on now Gooz. Settle down and pitch your ballgame. No free passes and make them earn what then get. Keep the ball down and let your defense work for you. Go get em kid.
