    good inning.

    good job, marmol. now we just need a series of d-back errors to get back in this baby.
  3. abuck1220
    listen, i don't know what you want me to say. yes, it could have been worse. he could have given up 11 runs instead of 5 and he could have stabbed carlos marmol or killed a baby. good job, marquis on not being worse.

    rich hill's about the only guy who deserves to have good things said about him lately.

    this is like the "marquis isn't so bad for a fifth starter argument." he has a remarkable ability to pitch so poorly that people's expectations go down and anything better than complete disaster is fine. he sucks. i think he meant it could have been worse. which fits exactly with what i was saying. so what you expected him to give up 8 or 9 runs today.... what are looking for. he gave up 5 runs in the first 2 innings then went scoreless in 3 1/3, which means it could have been worse... It's impossible to please abuck. it's impossible to please me by allowing 5 runs in 5 1/3 innings, yes. i'm also not pleased with a $100 mil that hovers around .500. sorry.

    week 21

    i shouldn't get bush's points from today. i could have sworn he was listed as tuesday's starter, so i didn't take him out of the lineup. looks like it'll be my second straight loss in which i've scored 300+ points.

    marquis/blanco is one of the top worst signings batteries around.
  10. abuck1220
    they really were just pop ups.

    is there a comedy forum?

    hopefully i'm getting all these weeks where my opponent scores 350 out of the way before the playoffs. if cordero hadn't [expletive] all over himself tonight, i'd actually be half way in this one.
  14. abuck1220
    i wanted him too. but given that hendry seems to care more about putting together a boy scout troop than a good team, i didn't get my hopes up.
  15. abuck1220
    but michael vick got an indefinite suspension for dogfighting. NOT FAIR!
  16. abuck1220
    Not a problem kid??? He doesn't even have a good relationship with his own father. http://blogs.jsonline.com/brewers/ what a terrible post.
  17. abuck1220
    if the cubs are comfortable throwing a defensive OF of floyd, jones and fox/ward out there in the midst of a pennant chase, i think they could more than get by with soriano, pie, burrell. the cubs are in a position where they really have to make a hard push for dunn or burrell this offseason. arod would work too (moving derosa to rf and theriot to 2b).
  18. abuck1220
    wait til he gives kendall 2/$10, and the cubs will be paying two terrible catchers $7 mil+.
  19. abuck1220
    And he will start Thursday...bye bye Al Alburquerque! I also irrationally hate certain 21-year old Dominican kids on the basis of 11 appearances. Theres never any hatred. But he gave us no chance to win and get in the playoffs and thats what we are playing for. He was way overmatched at this level and always "hurt" The only thing they are playing for is possibly developing into future major league baseball players. Getting Peoria to the playoffs is pretty meaningless. Your post makes no sense at all. You can't possibly believe that minor league players don't want to win, and make it to the playoffs at every level? his post makes no sense?

    when does zambrano's next new season start?
  21. abuck1220
    overreaction much? look at stats much?
  22. abuck1220
    it's pretty clear who this team's ace is...and it's not the guy with the $90 mil contract.
  23. abuck1220
    words to live by. probably should be your sig. seriously though, can we quit whining about luck for a while? the cubs just won two games they should have lost and they miss webb this weekend. if the brewers had missed webb and won two games in two days in their last ab, this board would probably explode into the biggest pity party of all time...i mean, it practically crashed when gabe gross went 2-4 or whatever.

    It's always fun to have a guy who is a legit threat to hit a HR off the bench, and nothing more. But he hasn't been able to do anything against RHP this year. Need to keep his playing time very limited. DO you think Lou will be limiting his playing time? I see him filling in for Floyd & Murton a lot more. Which is terrible. Lou may even try to play him in CF. See you in a few weeks Fox or Pie. Right, because Lou is such a terrible manager. He just does dumb stuff all the time. He certainly isn't getting the most out of this team. not saying that lou is terrible, but "getting the most out of this team?" you have to be kidding. it's a $100 mil team that's like four games over .500. if that's the "most," i don't want to see the "least."
  25. abuck1220
    that's the case with like 99% of pitchers. you realize there's only one situation (giving up 4) that doesn't qualify as very good or very bad according to your standards, right?
