No. He's just not seeing that curve at all. He let that curve got right by in his other ABs too.
-
Hill made Frenchie lose his lid on that GB out. :lol:
-
That's better.

I love the feast or famine offense we have. Reminds me of old times.

Dumb steal by Theriot.

link That doesn't change the fact that the Cubs could've bagged the whole deal the second before getting that slip of paper, the second after getting that slip of paper, or the second after selecting Hamilton. True, but you better have quite a reason to do so-normally, there's not enough of one to make the other GM's in the league upset by breaking an agreement. I agree. Hendry's too much of a standup guy to go back on his deal. I was just pointing out that nothing was official with the Reds until after Hamilton was Cubs property, and technically, they could've kept him (or offered him back to TB, or not taken him in the first place, etc.). RichHill characterized the situation as being completely out of the Cubs' hands before the pick was even made. That's not true. The Cubs weren't planning to take anyone in the Rule 5. I highly doubt they wasted time scouting potential Rule 5 picks, Josh H. included. You don't just all of a sudden decide to take a player we didn't have room for much less haven't scouted, nevermind the agreement.

I agree on Pie. I am not looking at his BA, I am looking for him to go deep into counts to show patience. It will be interesting to see how he does against a lefty today, albeit not a very good one. Does anyone know where I can find his minor league splits? http://www.minorleaguesplits.com/pl/429/429712.html There's his 2006 splits.

Piniella suggested in his post game comments that he'd move Pie down in the order against LH starters.
-
No. The Cubs had an agreement prior to the draft to trade their Rule 5 pick to Cinci for cash. They only found out the name when Cinci gave it to them moments before they were to pick. The idea that we ever "had" Josh Hamilton is incorrect.

stop spending big $ on setup men, please

Eyre is really sucking early on. -
probably about to demand a trade That would be the smartest career move ever.
-
What a crap team. We have some good players, but some good players don't get you wins when the other members of your team are sabotaging you.
-
Eyre says yes.
-
great maybe he can teach murton how to freakin score huh? at least murton was on base yup, for all the good it did us with the 2 chances he had to cross home plate.
