    because how one organization's teams (out of six) did against one team over the course of eight measly games tells you absolutely nothing about their system as a whole. sorry, but if reputable scouting/minor league publications say their system, as a whole sucks, that holds more weight than the fact that you've seen their low A team play decent ball over an eight game span against the chiefs.

    wow. jim hendry may finally be getting a strongly worded letter from this cub fan.
  3. abuck1220
    sullivan's not a fan either...

    this is not true..he is helping guys like Marmol and Marshall. If he is traded he wont be able to help them learn. Is there any quanitative proof that he is helping them? of course not. the best thing he could do for the cubs' young pitchers is to leave and let them have his spot in the rotation. hill's going to win 300 games in AAA before he ever gets another shot at this rate.

    hill's last 10 starts have been ridiculous... 69 1/3 ip, 39 h, 13 bb, 10 er, 94 k's that's 12.2 k/9, 0.75 whip, 1.30 era. and that's not just a small two game sample...that's roughly 1/3 of a season. i don't think there's any doubt that he's been the best pitcher in minor league baseball, not only this year, but over the past two seasons.

    for those that don't venture to the minor league forums...hill's line tonight... 7 1/3 ip, 1 h, 1 bb, 0 r, 14 k's. can't wait to see rusch out there in five days!

    williamson didn't sound too happy about how he was used today...

    hill coming out after striking out his fifth straight batter. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 7 1/3, 1 h, 1 bb, 0 r, 14 k's. absolutely unreal. it boggles the mind that he is still in AAA.
  9. abuck1220
    i-cubs are 19-5 over the past two seasons when hill starts. 14.

    the guy they have in the booth is fascinating. -where's your favorite place to stay in vegas? -i don't like las vegas. -are you excited to see talledega nights? -no. -did you see old school? -no. riveting stuff. hill k's to end the bottom of the seventh, so it looks like he's back out for the 8th. he's at 90 pitches.
  11. abuck1220
    can't wait to see rusch get the start if marshall goes on the DL.
  12. abuck1220
    13. unreal.

    wuertz was called up.
  16. abuck1220
    maybe that's what the cubs are waiting for. the way he was going tonight, i thought he'd have a shot at a no-no. just 81 pitches for hill.
  17. abuck1220
    apparently hill dove after a ball (don't known when that happened) and may have been shaken up. he recovers to k the next guy. 6 ip, 1 h, 1 bb, 10 k's
  18. abuck1220
    oh frickin' great...trainer out to see hill. edit: he's staying in.
  19. abuck1220
    there's 9.
  20. abuck1220
    i got all ready to say screw it and head down for the game, but then outs starting flying by, and i realized i wouldn't get there til the 7th at the earliest. plus, the no-hitter's over (boo!). 5 ip, 1 h, 0 bb, 8 k's
  21. abuck1220
    yeah, well, i didn't see any reason why hill would be in the minors this long when he's been arguably the best pitcher in minor league baseball over the past two seasons and the cubs are 400 games under .500. but the cubs can surprise you like that.
  22. abuck1220
    welp, they're no kearns and lopez. maybe now wuertz can come up and sit in the pen for weeks on end while novoa sees if he can get his whip up over 2.
  23. abuck1220
    micah homers...might be the game.
  24. abuck1220
    wow, this guy sucks.
  25. abuck1220
    if he has to miss a start and hill (who is on marshall's schedule) does not get called up, i may finally lose it.
