    the cubs have to quit calling a guy up for a couple starts, then sending him back down after he fails. a guy who hasn't pitched much in the bigs is going to have some growing pains. if you send a guy out after three rough starts and bring up another guy, the new guy will have the same growing pains. you just have to ride somebody out.

    big matchup b/w raw and HBC. a win for raw pulls him to w/in a game of third place (and a playoff spot). a loss puts him three back.

    and?

    the double-switching was classic. dusty's probably got more double-switches than the cubs have homers... ! the cubs should just be happy to have been in this game. you're not going to win very often on days when the wind is blowing out when you end up w/ a lineup featuring pierre, womack, neifi, bynum, and hairston. gross.

    andy's gonna need a new excuse...the cubs hit pretty well today w/ RISP.
  6. abuck1220
    was neifi dogging that??? i didn't even think there would be a play.
  7. abuck1220
    oh good, bynum's up.
  8. abuck1220
    cedeno had no business swinging at a 2-0 pitch right there. time for a neifi bunt!

    if i blow this 60 point lead, i'm gonna be pissed. burning bulbs today: 10-19, 4 hr, 7 rbi, 7 runs damn it! two of my closers' teams are involved in close games, but neither of them even get in. i'm gonna need some points from teix and blalock tonight.
  10. abuck1220
    Who else you gonna run out there until the injured guys get back? Nobody else has done anything to warrant getting the spot. neither has rusch.
  11. abuck1220
    well, rusch has locked up a rotation spot for a month.

    you're gonna need to change the title of this thread.

    that's ridiculous. it would take him two seconds to look up cedeno's minor league numbers. of course, he really didn't make that assumption. he just said that to take a veiled shot at the posters who like cedeno/obp. so defensive. i wasn't being defensive. i've never been huge on cedeno. i like him better than neifi, but that's not saying much. i'd have never guessed. ok just read your previous comment again. so i looked up cedeno's minor league number yet still made my comment about thinking he had better plate discipline. lol @ that bizarre accusation. i'm so evil! thanks for the laugh. gotta go. umm....what?

    I referred to him as Neifi Cedeno a few days ago. Cubs seem to be high on him. Probably like his Neifiesque tendencies. With the way Cedeno was hyped, I thought he'd have a little more plate discipline. Who was hyping Cedeno? He's never been able to take a walk. many here wanting him starting. hence, i assumed he must take walks, if he's popular here. wow, that's some crack research there.

    you honestly think that getting ONE guy back is going to turn the second worst offense in baseball to an offense capable of contending for a world series? I think it could happen. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that the Cubs were scoring over 5 runs a game before Lee got hurt. We have a huge hole to dig ourself out of, but I think that we can score enough runs to win games once Lee gets back. that was, what, 14-15 games? additionally, during that time the cubs were hitting WAY over their head w/ RISP, a trend that most people knew wouldn't continue. i don't think the offense will be even average once lee gets back. they'd still have a terrible offensive outfield, and i don't think they can overcome that.

    argh...one more spot and i'd have had him in the draft. with three starts left, i should have a decent shot at being high score for the week.

    little pearl jam marker in the sand going to the break.
  23. abuck1220
    boy, is dusty going to be all over that murton to cedeno relay after the game.
  24. abuck1220

  25. abuck1220
    this 9 walks to 1 game today couldn't have come at a better time. give 'em hell, bruce.
