    nothing like being able to flip back and forth b/w hill walking damien easley and the mets' pitcher (who, for good measure, is owning the cubs)and blanton mowing down 63 straight AAA players currently on the royals' roster.

    jones literally looks like he has two broken arms when he swings and misses. what a sorry bunch of outfielders the cubs have.
  3. abuck1220
    he looked pretty filthy the first couple innings, but he has no control over his slider-y curve right now.
  4. abuck1220
    another freaking bloop followed by a damian frappin' easley homerun. about time for bed.
  5. abuck1220
    jeez, soriano, how about a little hustle? this team is obnoxious.
  6. abuck1220
    i don't know about that...it was hard hit but pretty routine.
  7. abuck1220
    weren't even on the screen. i don't agree w/ walking loduca.
  8. abuck1220
    well, that sucked. were floyd and jones laying down out in the outfield or something?
  9. abuck1220
    you deserve bad things when you walk easley.
  10. abuck1220
    man, this team walks a lot of crappy hitters ahead of really good hitters.
  11. abuck1220
    yeah, those were three rockets.
  12. abuck1220
    man, he really doesn't strike batters out. weird.

    so rothschild gets credit for the guys that have improved but no blame for the guys that haven't?
  14. abuck1220
    He obviously doesn't have a noodle, but he doesn't have a Howitzer either. I am sure he could cut it, and I am all for it if playing RF keeps him in the lineup - but my point is that he is suited better for LF than RF. Having a stronger armed guy in RF is absolutely NOT asinine. Have you ever made that throw from deep right to 3rd base? If you can hit that on a line, you have talent. Soriano could do that, so I have always wondered why they were not working him out in RF in Spring Training. If you think about it, late in a close game is when a player is REALLY going to consider when and when not to run on an OFers arm. When you have a Dawson, Vladimir Guerrero, or any other strong armed RFer - you are going to stay at 2nd instead of running on him. You can't tell me that is not invaluable. that happens, what, once every two weeks?

    Really? Seem's to me that he's doing a good job with Marquis and the other starters. Well, minus Z. rothschild may have "fixed" marquis, but he's about the only success story he's had. wouldn't bother me if he got canned.

    11 walks in 23 PA's for laroche. now if they'd just play him every day.

    if guzman somehow craps the bed, i sure hope marshall would get the shot before miller.

    closers lose a bunch of points through runs allowed and total bases if they blow a save, so they still get negative points. plus, blown saves can be kinda fluky too...papelbon blew a couple last year coming in with one out in the 8th with a runner at 3rd and a one run lead...give up a sac fly, and that's a tough way to lose 3 points.
  23. abuck1220
    should be a fun rest of the season! ps - hobbling 35 year old corner outfielders with a .710 OPS shouldn't get a lot of playing time.
  24. abuck1220
    i put the blame on the guy who walked three straight hitters. but that's just me.
  25. abuck1220
    that's why you can't stick in the big leagues, wuertz. damn, is he frustrating.
