    What a great game by Maddux. Hopefully he can have a similar second half as he had last season. Murton looking for some revenge here.
  2. Jon
    Wow. That's great news. Hopefully the date is accurate. On WGN Radio, Andy Mazur said that Nomar could start playing in rehab games as early as another week. And if they really believe that, Cedeno needs to start at Iowa right after the break. No more wasting away on the bench.

    Wow. I didn't hear about that. I saw Prior go with Adam into the clubhouse last night, but not that. Very nice of him.
  4. Jon
    Sorry about that. I meant to quote the last two comments instead of just one.
  5. Jon
    I'm pretty sure they showed both Greenberg and Murton on the bench earlier on WGN. Yeah, Greenberg is on the bench and in uniform. He went for the tests earlier today. But there's no way he's playing today.
  6. Jon
    Hahaha. Did everyone see that? Some police were escorting a group of fans out and one of them was holding up a sign for Lee after the HR. The officer then had to tap him on his shoulder to tell him to keep on walking.
  7. Jon
    Well, the tradition is that Maddux isn't supposed to throw a CG shutout until AFTER the All Star break. If it's a blowout in the 8th and/or 9th, there may be a pitcher that Dusty wants to let work.
  8. Jon
    I can understand that. Like most of us were complaining, the 12 pitchers. I think that is hurting us more than it's helping us IMHO. As much as they talk about cutting the staff down to 11, I'd be quite surprised to see it happen. And for no reason other than to spite Grieve's OBP.
  9. Jon
    I doubt Greenberg is available to play today, so with the already short bench, Dusty really can't afford to use up players this early.
  10. Jon
    Ramirez sure likes that right field line right now. EWWW. That better not have been a Cade jersey in the stands.
  11. Jon
    You can call it tomorrow, but unless you want to talk to a nice older woman, I wouldn't bother. It's the Cubs' main number (773-404-CUBS).
  12. Jon
    Hit number two one for Maddux.
  13. Jon
    Woo! Barrett might have been gunned down at the plate if Gonzo's glove didn't slow it down. And a first pitch flyout...yeesh.
  14. Jon
    I'm a little surprised Montague didn't give him that one. Not that he earned it or it was a strike, but still.
  15. Jon
    And at least for the moment, there's another blown run. Jerry has to learn how to pick up the third base coach.
  16. Jon
    Come on. Where else other than the majors could he learn the strike zone, improve on base running, see if he can maintain that power, etc.? I mean, there would have to be some sort of "minor league" where players could get ready. But let's stop living in fantasy land and call the guy up.
  17. Jon
    I think he was too shocked at being asked to bunt. I can understand that.
  18. Jon
    You're bunting...with Walker...wow... I almost want to say that's a new low, Dusty. Congrats.
  19. Jon
    Ugh. Moser made that call from first. That would explain why be missed it...
  20. Jon
    Wow. That's not even close. Way to blow the call, Layne.
  21. Jon
    It was a 3-2 pitch, though. If Hollandsworth was worried about protecting Perez, he should've taken the walk.
  22. Jon
    What the...wasn't that trapped?
  23. Jon
    Just think of how many runs would be on the board right now if they weren't swining at junk in the dirt.
  24. Jon
    I suppose Hairston at least had an excuse of not seeing two walks in front of him before coming to the plate. Not so much for Burnitz.
  25. Jon
    Glad to see them take away that second earned run. I was wondering why they charged it to him when all of the runs scored after that 2-out error.
