  1. 2 outs and the bases loaded, what is it going to hurt for him to take a shot? you don't think he tried? what are you saying?
  2. go to hell, rich hill...can't even throw a shut out and drive in the game winning run!
  3. so now we're getting mad at hill for not being able to hit?
  4. He tore it up @ Iowa? Let me clairify, is there any reason to play him in Chicago? what's with all the crying about cedeno playing? who would you prefer them to throw out there? it's not like 1984 sandberg is sitting on the bench.
  5. what the hell do you guys expect espn to focus on? glavine's going for 300...that's more important than the cubs being six games over .500. calm down.
  6. It's not nonsense. He's the 5th best starter on this team. It's silly to compare him to other team's aces and such. It makes sense to see how he performs compared to other team's 5th starters. And he performs very well. Better than every other team's 5th starter. He's doing his job. What?? "He's doing his job"?? What's his job? To pitch us out of games? To give up 4 runs in 5 IP? He's sucked the past 2 months. He's the "5th starter" because he's easily the worst on our staff. He's making too much money to have a above 5 ERA. Seriously, why do you continue to say that? It's a flat out lie. If you're not going to be truthful, I'm not going to waste time talking to you. what the hell is the matter with you? june -- 5.09 era july -- 6.29 august -- 4 runs and counting in 5 innings. who's lying? What the hell is the matter with you man? He has had good outtings and bad ones. Half good, half bad. That doesn't mean he's been awful. Look at his freaking game log. Try and have someone read it to you if you still don't understand. have someone read these numbers to you if you still don't understand. 5.09 6.29

  8. let me get this straight. marquis the third highest paid pitcher on the team, but because he's pitched like absolute crap, he's considered the #5 starter. and because he's not the worst #5 starter around, he's doing his job? so basically, he wasn't doing his job as the #3 starter, and his crappiness makes him a #5, where he deserves more slack. so pitching worse actually helped him.
  9. It's not nonsense. He's the 5th best starter on this team. It's silly to compare him to other team's aces and such. It makes sense to see how he performs compared to other team's 5th starters. And he performs very well. Better than every other team's 5th starter. He's doing his job. his job is to pitch well, and he's not doing it. you're not making any sense.
  10. Maybe because he's not fully ready for the Big Leagues. Give Kendall a break. yeah, just give the cubs a break too. who cares if they haven't won a world series in 100 years...give them a break.
  11. Yeah, aside from the fact that he hasn't. Damn it DeRosa, what the hell What was his July ERA again? 6? Yeah, he's awesome. Look at his game log. He hasn't been as bad as you make him out to be. As I said in another thread, he's the best 5th starter in baseball too. You're right, I was wrong. He's been bad for 9 weeks. His June ERA was over 5 and his July ERA was over 6. Yeah, great, he can mix in one good start amidst 3 godawful ones. We should be lucky we have him for 3 years. 3 of his last 6 starts have been quality. No 5th starter in baseball has a better ERA than Marquis. Keep the hyperbole coming. first of all, he's not their #5 starter. secondly, if you insist on calling him a #5, no other #5 has a $21 mil contract.
  12. jones and pagan are both terrible offensively and defensively. at least pie would provide plus defense.
  13. pagan's one of those guys that people think are good defensively because he's skinny, fast, and he can't hit.
  14. saying the game is 90% mental is one of the most ridiculous things i've ever read on this board.
  15. [expletive] fantastic...bush pitches like [expletive] (including giving up two homers to my opponent) and the brewers win. and [expletive] you, pat burrell. and this line... 80 PC, 6.1 INN, 9 HA, BBI, 4 K, 4 ER, 6 1BA, 3 2BA, HB = 8 points but this line... 90 PC, 5 INN, 8 HA, 3 BBI, 4 K, 5 ER, 2 1BA, 3 2BA, 3 HRA = -9??
  16. better than the turds the cubs have had back there.
  17. finally...someone has applied sound logic to this situation.
  18. three starts have earned me a whopping .3 points. man, that braves offense is tough w/ teixeira in there.
  19. just gotta give it up to the lord cause the guys battled through it...you know, just giving 110%. murton said "battled" 63 times. the interviewer was like, "what were you thinking on the wild pitch?" nice question, cronkite.
  20. i'm surprised murton didn't stop half way home and run to second or something. this interview is tough to watch.
