  1. it was pretty clearly outside. Soto was sitting outside and it went right to his glove
  2. You let a reliever start an inning fresh, with nobody on, when you can.
  3. what is this, the 4th time he's pitched in a game since last year?
  4. It's too bad Murray's career is so damn good because he's great in the booth.
  5. Yeah, he hasn't had to pitch from the stretch since the third inning, it's not overly cold or hot, and he's just now hitting 100 pitches. Dempster is old, it's cold and it's Opening Day. If you don't pull him at 92, he's probably throwing 110 or so, and there's just no need for that. The whole bullpen is fresh and we've got an off day tomorrow. It's not egregious, it just seems a poor choice to me. On June 1st it isn't egregious, on opening day it is. It's unnecessary macho BS, just like the "if you make a mistake make it an aggressive mistake" nonsense.
  6. Oh shut up. They were a real incitement to cause concussions you dufus. Wake the heck up and get out of your little self imposed martyrdom.
  7. because it's opening day and there is no good reason to extend a guy in this situation.
  8. It hasn't worked. They did nothing until the inning they scored. And in that inning Baker took several pitches and drew a walk to move Stewart into scoring position. And if Dempster didn't squirm out of a couple jams the Cubs would be down 5-1 and by no means would anybody said what they have done "has worked".
  9. the red sox terrible september is continuing into april. Somebody must be eating chicken.
  10. try the extra innings free preview instead of espn
  11. Except nobody is making that argument so you "defending" against it is kind of stupid.
  12. I think Soriano ran on his own. Maybe, maybe not. But Dale wants aggressive and has made that plainly obvious. With 1 out the theory is you get to third for a sacrifice opportunity.
  13. because the manager is pushing that nonsense as the cubs way
  14. beer vendors are going to need to be aggressive if they want to sell before the cut-off.
  15. Dempster's had 4-5 pitches called balls where pitch f/x disagreed. The system they are showing on the TV appears to be agreeing with the ump. The TV pitch plotters have a habit of not disagreeing with the call. I'm not sure how accurate we can assume the pitch f/x people are either. Either way, they haven't looked egregious.
  16. I think he's just not giving the close ones to the pitcher. And for entertainment purposes alone I hope umps don't call close balls strikes just for the fun of it.
