    18 pitches, 12 strikes for hill in the first. two k's and a hr allowed.
  2. abuck1220
    yeah, but marquis sucks. he should be skipped.
  3. abuck1220
    Today. huh. if i were a good nsbb'er i'd go down there and watch him. too late now though...
  4. abuck1220
    how do you know it's not fully healed?
  5. abuck1220
    so when's he starting for iowa? he's thrown 27 pitches in like the last three weeks.
  6. abuck1220
    that game gave fans unreasonable expectations about wood that he would have never been able to live up to, injury or no injury. that being said, k #19 is my favorite.
  7. abuck1220
    Not sure why you're throwing Dempster in with those guys. Seems like he's been pretty solid. so far, yeah.

    Week 6

    abuck1220 replied to cbbryan's topic in Fantasy Sports

    i want to start duchscherer, but he's not eligible as a SP, so i just put him in my lineup as a RP. so my lineup shows three relievers, but i only have four SP in there. if that's not right, let me know.
  9. abuck1220
    it is kind of frustrating that marmol, wood, and marshall are all in the pen (and hill in AAA), while marquis, lieber and dempster are in the rotation.
  10. abuck1220
    Soriano should not be leading off, however, I don't think Theriot is a better choice.Nor is Theroit. Did you see Alter Bridge @ House of Blues over the weekend? I was there Friday, AWESOME CONCERT!!!! and i thought "theriot for leadoff" was the worst thing i read in this thread.
  11. abuck1220
    baserunning apparently not a point of emphasis at lsu.
  12. abuck1220
    EVERY GAME soriano leads off is another victory for wrigley23.

    Week 6

    abuck1220 replied to cbbryan's topic in Fantasy Sports

    if i don't at least split in my next two weeks, it may be time to become a seller.
  14. abuck1220
    yeah, not exactly a ringing endorsement for larry. especially since hill says he hasn't been right all year (including ST).
  15. abuck1220
    Let's get to the playoffs first. the cubs are 10 games better than any team in this division, especially with gallardo done and mil's bullpen in shambles. if they somehow manage to not win the division it will be because lee, ramirez and fukudome all got polio. their rotation is good enough to win the central, but i wouldn't feel good about it in the playoffs.
  16. abuck1220
    good luck with a playoff rotation of z, lilly, dempster and lieber, cubs!
  17. abuck1220
    liriano, hill and ubaldo have combined to give me 48 points on the season. i would have expected one or two of them to perform below expectations, but this is ridiculous. not only are hill's struggles killing my fantasy team (x2), they're killing the cubs in a major way. good luck in the playoffs with a rotation of z, dempster and lieber. yikes.
  18. abuck1220
    no, he hasn't. i don't think there's any doubt that he's out of the rotation...90% sure of that. and i'd say there's a very good chance he goes to AAA. he should have been left in for at least one more batter tonight. that's four starts in a row that lou has had a remarkably short leash on hill. it's as if it's 2005 and hill has never had success before. One more batter and the game might have been over in the first inning. the worst that would have happened is another walk and one more run. as it is, they lost anyway, ruined the bullpen in the process, and likely completely demoralized hill. leaving him for at least one more batter would have been the right thing to do.

    yeah, the cubs are definitely in a do-or-die situation this weekend.
  21. abuck1220
    no sympathy here. rollins and soriano were my two most expensive keepers, and they've missed a ton of games.
  22. abuck1220
    i really wish that theriot was as good a baserunner as you think he is.
  23. abuck1220
    hey, guy who hates wood, who is pitching the 7th and 8th yesterday if marmol is closing?
  24. abuck1220
    ravech is awful.
  25. abuck1220
    nobody's saying wood didn't suck yesterday. but the two other saves he's blown have been one run leads that he blew by making one bad pitch (as opposed to walking four guys or giving up a bunch of hit/hrs). it happens. secondly, marmol can't pitch three innings every day. even the most serious wood-hater has to admit he's the cubs second best reliever. someone has to pitch those innings whether it's the 7th, 8th or 9th, and wood's going to have to pitch some of them, like it or not.
