6/26 Orioles (Liz) vs Cubs (Marquis) 1:20PM WGN
BigSlick replied to mhuber92211's topic in Fred Hornkohl Game Thread Forum
This Liz guy really sucks, and we all know the story on Marquis so this should be a shootout. GL Cubs -
I'm starting to think its more likely than not
-
Oh crap why is Marquis pitching tomorrow? I thought it was Gallagher's turn, why are we skipping him for MARQUIS
-
not realistic. if you're going to have a backup middle infielder, he's almost certain to be a lousy hitter. take a look around baseball and see how many teams have a solid hitter who can come off the bench and play shortstop. if the guy can hit and play SS/2B, he's already starting. this is the truth, as frustrating as it may be. the thing is we have enough freakin back up middle infielders, and we got a couple nice lefty back ups now so we can afford to throw fontenot out the door.

I wish everyone would bear in mind that how many runners you get on is more indicative of how much scoring you do than how well you hit with runners on. It might helped if I were to repeat that.

huh? Yeah, now i'm convinced you're a troll. Runners left on base notwithstanding, they've scored 7 runs and have had fairly decent pitching all game.
-
Fontenot just needs to go and never come back Please god Lou, stop using him
-
I know he's been hot, but Lee still isn't seeing the ball very well and swinging much too much out of the zone
-
pretty sure they will
-
hahahahahha I honestly feel bad for Soto and Edmonds
-
jesus fontenot why did you have to be so terrible RIGHT THERE
-
And now its time for Fontenot to suck it up at the plate
-
and it begins
-
jesus that would have been nice for DeRo and for us
-
base runners! how do we strand em?
-
Edmonds walking and nice bat speed on that homer earlier is encouraging
-
Well, to be honest, I really don't see Lilly being #2 in the playoffs even if we didn't acquire another starter. I still see your point, though. I'm still holding out hope to end the season with a rotation of Zambrano, Sabathia, Hill, Dempster, Lilly. I don't have much, if any, faith that Rich Hill will figure out a damn thing this year. He's done for 2008, IMO. Don't take this away from me. Just substitute Marshall for Hill, he's a lefty too, has pretty much the same pitches and is younger!

hahaha good for fresno state, gotta love the underdogs was pulling for UC-Irvine earlier, but they blew like a 6 run lead in the 9th to qualify for the CWS and broke my heart
-
wait that can't be right gamecast says we have 17 LOB, how is that possible
-
Wait, Cedeno was sent down?
-
The term "hit" is being used very liberally here
-
lol, we're crushing them with hits every inning, what makes you think we stop scoring runs?
-
Might be time to send Patterson back down
-
Nice job fontenot
-
Ugh I hate whenever a player hits a homer and the next batter just starts hacking, THATS NOT HOW IT WORKS, STOP MAKING OUTS AT A PRODIGIOUS RATE
