  1. Hey, we found the guy blaming Dempster for the ball bouncing off the base! you're completely wrong. he pitched 2 innings last night, he needs a night off. He threw 17 pitches, about what he'd throw in a normal 1 inning save.

  3. For those not watching it was a slow bouncer to first that hits the base caroming into RF. Just ridiculous.
  4. Were all three games Dempster's fault? Depends on your definition of fault. I wouldn't say last night's game was Dempster's fault, but he did take a loss. I was just wondering. Also, we did not lead after 8 innings yesterday. The Dodgers game was his fault though. The 3 games are one against the Pirates where Dempster gave up 1 in the 9th, Cubs wound up losing in extras. The meltdown game against the Mets in a non-save situation, and the game against the Dodgers.

  6. That Soriano play is like in Sporting News Baseball, you just had to run the ball to the centerfield wall, and the guy from first would take off to 2nd, you one hop the ball in from the fence and get him out every time.
  7. Soriano should bobble every ball hit to him.
  8. Why do you think Dempster is unavailable. Kasper said he's available earlier and Dempster threw less than Howry did yesterday.
  9. But yeah, this should definitely be Wuertz or Wood. It would be nice to not have to pitch Marmol 2 innings tomorrow, and unless our offense explodes for 10 runs tomorrow or we just forfeit the game he probably will.
  10. Dempster threw 17 pitches yesterday, he should be available.
  11. I liked the Cliff Floyd from the first half of the game.
  12. I don't believe there's any rule against this, so I'd run Hill out to the mound to start the 8th, make Houston show their hand with their pinch hitter, then go to Ohman or Wood depending on the handedness of the hitter. Wood then finishes the inning. Dempster closes.
  13. Rich Hill is the best starting pitcher on the Cubs.
  14. Please don't panic here Lou. He'll be fine.
  15. Have you heard Stone on WSCR? He would probably be the worst GM. Have you seen some of the actions of current GMs? Granted Littlefield is gone now, but Jim Bowden and Wayne Krivsky are still gainfully employed. Whoever's running Baltimore now too.(Duquette? though whoever it is, I'd blame Angelos more than anyone else.) Isn't Andy MacPhail the Baltimore GM? i thought he was the team prez? Yes. The GM is Mike Flanagan. STILL??
  16. I think I could put one in the Crawford Boxes.
  17. Pence ran in on it. He misplayed it. Possible, maybe likely he doesn't catch it, but he definitely misplayed it somewhat.
