Cubs looking at Randy Winn?
jersey cubs fan replied to E.J.'s topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
They are still looking for more LH bats? Why? Why not just bats in general? Lou said it himself, we're a little short on RH bats right now when facing a lefty. -
His manager isn't doing him any favors by using him the way he's been using him.
-
Lou is insinuating he has to use Marmol frequently to keep him sharp, so he'll throw more strikes and keep his pitch counts down per at bat. The problem is Marmol's lack of sharpness is quite possibly due to the absurd overuse the past year. He's pretending he's got some sort of impossible task of balancing the rest Marmol needs with the frequency he needs.

Tiger with a huge Eagle putt to make a statement, +1. Mickelson for Birdie, rimshot. He's still E.
-
Must be that damn metric system. Do they have a Canadien convenience store called 7 O 7, like the White Sox and the 7:11 start times?
-
If I had to guess, I'd say Booker and Bradley become the most prominent receivers, with Hester the third wheel. Lloyd is probably going to be worthless. All in all, it's going to be an extremely weak group.
-
It may not hurt to inquire, but the slap in the face might. He's the lone bright spot on the team and he's a young pitcher in just his 4th season. No way they trade him.

Lou Pinella, What the hell are you doing?
jersey cubs fan replied to Keener98's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
No, it's not completely counter to the previous 400+ PA's.... I don't know all of Zambrano's stats, but I know he hit .300 one year-- he hit around .250 last year & he's hitting around .350 this year. If you want a bigger sample size, what's Zambrano's avage the last two seasons?!? Probably around .280-.290.... That's gotta be relevant. Lou is good at puting players in position to succeed. If he thought Zambrano hitting in that spot was the thing to do, there's reason for that thought. Looking at strictly batting average isn't really the best way go about it, but Zambrano is a career .234 hitter(.241 OBP) that hit .247(.247 OBP) last year and .151(.160 OBP) the year before. Yeah, but it seemed like he hit much higher and Lou must have had a good reason so you shouldn't question it. -
I don't know crap about these prospects and the more I read the more confused I get, so give me the Alvarez kid Pittsburgh took.
-
Todd Walker vs. the Sox a few years ago. It was too complete the sweep as well. Yep. Sunday night ESPN game and it was a pitchers duel between Rusch and Buehrle That was a walk.
-
i don't mean to call bull but wouldn't one remember a score they shot at a us open course? rather than just say low 80's? It wasn't a US Open course then. I played Torrey Pines two years ago, when I knew the Open was coming, and I couldn't tell you what it was. Probably about 95-98. I played in a best ball scramble the next day and we got a 67.

good story

let's go super Jim
-
People don't bring it up because it's not worth talking about.
-
because no one cares about stats like that why wouldn't they? because it's not an ability, or inability, it's a coincidence. This is a good hitting team. Even the best hitting teams fail often.
-
He's on pace for over 100 innings. It's going to take more than 8 days of slightly less than average use to pull him back from the shredded arm ledge. Seriously.
-
fangraphs.com Fangraphs assumes every team has a 50-50 chance of winning every game without considering the players abilities. This is false. Sometimes you have to consider other things Like the health of Marmol? I'd prefer he be used in a spot like this than not at all I have no problem with using Marmol when he should be used What you dont' seem to understand is that if they used him everytime a situation arises where they "should" use him, they'd use him way the heck too much.

I agree as well.

What? You never have to double switch. The lineup was going to be turned over regardless. I understand that, but like Baker, Piniella does have a habit to double switch (remember the game he double switch Derrek Lee out of the game?), and if that option is not present to Piniella, the better. ??????????? You aren't making any sense. The 9 spot was up in the order. You pinch hit, then insert a reliever the next inning. The double switch wouldn't have even been a realistic option unless they sent about 6 more guys to the plate that inning.

Z shouldn't have hit, and he shouldn't have started pitching this inning. Two easy to see mistakes by Lou.

Is Fontenot the only Cub on the bench?
-
Did he have the words in front of him??? Does he have any years in front of him?
-
where are the non black and white screen shots?
