terrible. which is what they are. you seem to want to discount his bad spells with the cubs as if they are the exception. i look at his good spells as the exception. and if you look at the rest of rusch's career, i'd say my view is probably more likely.
-
ah...just how i was hoping to start the week...two [expletive] starts and a two inning win for todd jones.
-
one good start by marmol and marshall's 4.43 era remind you of prior's near cy young season and wood's 14 win, 3.19 era and amazing pitching down the stretch leading the cubs to the postseason? that's some imagination you got there.
-
wrong.
-
i'm just concerned that the NL only gives out one cy young award each year. hopefully these guys can force a rule change.
-
9-7 start edge for me, though my pitching has sucked so bad lately that may not be a good thing. vmart, delgado, and cantu play in some good hitting parks this week for HBC. lee, prince, teix, and blalock get some good parks for me. my pen, which is normally a big strength, will be negated a bit since nathan and papelbon play each other this week. i need to break this shameful two game losing streak!
-
for one, that wasn't your point. your argument was that rusch has been "really good" 75% of the time...not that he had been "good" more often than not. secondly, instead of arguing over what constitutes a good or really good outing, how about we just look at his overall numbers, which are awful.
-
free somebody not named roberto novoa.
-
novoa's terrible.
-
what don't those stats show? it's not a matter of not showing everything, it's a matter the importance of what they're showing.
-
if you don't get it this week, you'll get it next week against me. this is the second straight 320+ week i've given up...my defense is terrible lately.

Eyre strike

So you don't want to fleece, say, the Diamondbacks in a trade? Just the Sox and the Cards? You come off as a Sox-hater first, Cubs fan second. NO!! I like the Cubs more than anything. I only sound like a Cubs fan w/ a White Sox attitude b/c so many fans force me to go into pissing matches. I used to never care about them, I started hating them once I moved to New Trier and once I joined forums and dealt with moronic fans in person and online. "forced"...like at gunpoint? No. I have a very short fuse, and fans inciting me, talking smack about the Garland-Karchner deal, talking about the Cubs losing all the time, relying too much on power, Wood is overrated, etc. All that crap. well, by all means, the cubs should make personnel decisions with your inability to control your temper in mind. -
ouch for tim. one out from a QS from milton then he walks a cub (!) followed by a neifi hr.

they also had to finish a suspended game. -
Is Z going to feel these past two starts down the road?
abuck1220 replied to AlwaysaCub's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
i don't think high pitch counts really matter that much. how are wood and prior doing these days, by the way? -

pretty much what everyone's come to expect from hill. 6 ip, 4 h, 1 er, 2 bb, 9 k's. era down to 2.31, and his control continues to be great at AAA. too bad for him that rusch is pitching so well right now. -
how the hell do you go six innings, walk six, give up five hits and not allow ANY runs?? my offense tried to get me back in it today, but it's probably too little too late. of course i dumped hensley when i got schilling, and he's given up one run thru 7 2/3.
-
but 24 playoff starting innings do? b/c that's how many he had when the cards got him.
-
i just really don't like how people completely dismiss the concept of sample size.
-
my three RP's this week: 32.85 points my five SP's this week: 16.6 (18.25 of which came from newly acquired schilling) i also have 16.25 points from putz and 12 from ray on my bench. in other words, my four relievers have more than tripled the points scored by my five starters.

this thread is rude, dumb, and obnoxious. -
decided you couldn't win the 'told you so' game w/ pierre, so you've moved on the jones, eh?
