    Well Glendon's rehab got him right back where he was before.
  2. cubfan1955
    Who would be dumb enough to answer it?
  3. cubfan1955
    I thought it was going to be a robbery comedy called "The Biggest Heist"? Is that about Dusty's 4 year contract, Neifi's two year contract, or Glendon's two year contract?

    Dustys new video book comes out tomorrow: "How Not to Manage in the Big Leagues" It's a tape of todays game.

    Let's see. Barrett is out. Nevin is out. If Blanco gets hurt who catches? Mabry? Not that we'll need one after this half inning.
  6. cubfan1955
    All is well. Glendon is back. :twisted:

    This is possibly the dumbest move Dusty has made in weeks. A - remove one of your best hitters and replace him w/ one of your worst - when Barrett's spot has to come up again if you are going to win, B - use your backup C in the 7th inning (good thing we have Nevin!), C - use a double switch when there's no guarantee that the Ps spot will come up in the next inning. Wouldn't we be better off just putting in Howry and seeing what happens the next inning? If the Cubs go 1-2-3, you can replace the P in the 9th with a guy you want leading off - NOT BLANCO. Cripes Dusty, it's like you're just throwing darts at names on a wall. Not anymore!

    YIKES!!!The wheels of Dustywisdom are turning. A double switch and now two pinch hitters. This is going to be a real team loss with everyone contributing.
  9. cubfan1955
    BRILLIANT!!! Get Barretts bat out of there down by 3!

    Neifi is a better hitter than Aram these days. :cry:
  11. cubfan1955
    I'd like to see some damage by ARAM now.
  12. cubfan1955
    I hope they pitch to Lee again. :shock:

    Welcome back Juan.

    No more crazy than someone putting a hill and a flag pole in centerfield. :D They should have added a windmill and a giant plaster dinosaur while they were at it. Maybe a Tilt-O-Whirl too.

    No more crazy than someone putting a hill and a flag pole in centerfield. :D I don't know about that; "Hold on, we need to stop play to let the train through"....that would've been pretty wild. Yeah but that train could run over Neifi going back for a popup. There is un upside. :)

    According to BP's NetDP statistic, Murton is #9 in all of baseball in hitting-into-DP ability. It's probably good Dusty has benched him against RHP or he would probably be #1.

    He didn't really fall apart, the ball was just hit where they weren't. The two RBI were on a slow roller up the middle and a duck snort...not much you can do about those types of hits. I agree that you can't do much about those two hits. However, the walk and the hit batsman are inexcusable. Without them, Lamb and Berkman don't bat that inning. The walk was bad but I hate those type of HBP calls. I know that if it touches the jersey it counts but the ball was still a few inches from even touching flesh. He went inside and caught jersey, I don't really blame him there. I'm not sure but wasn't it a 3-1 count anyway and it would have been ball 4 anyway?

    Murton is a DP machine. :cry:

    It must be nice to have a team that will take walks and then take advantage of them.
  22. cubfan1955
    Boy, when Cub pitchers lose it they lose it fast.
  23. cubfan1955
    The fact is he did catch it. And if they had walked LEE he would have still caught it. If I'm the opposing manager I would not let Lee beat me but like I said, I'm glad they did pitch to him.
  24. cubfan1955
    Ramirez may be slumping but he's still very dangerous. Yeah, but I'd still rather pitch to ARAM. And if they had the Cubs would not have scored. Ramirez hit the ball as hard as you can hit it, if Ensberg isn't there and Lee was walked 2 runs would've scored. LOL...where would Ensberg have went to?
