I didn't mind Darling. Stockton was bad. But that is usual for him. I am just happy if he gets the names right. And he didn't do that. What was the commercial about during Lou's visit? Tried to push another one in, but they cut it off.
Hey if the Cubs win tomorrow they have home field advantage. Going 1-1 in AZ was expected. Tomorrow is huge. Lilly is 9-1 after Cub losses. Hopefully the offense wakes up. Webb was outstanding. That change is so hard to pick up.
The offense deserves a ton of blame, no doubt, but Lou is a moron for yanking Zambrano when he did. There were some hard hit balls, but in the playoffs you have to score when runners get in scoring position
Hows this Lou's fault? The offense could not score to save their life. 84 pitches for your star pitcher in a tie game? Lou had a big part in this mess.
What is OPS + again? I like De Rosa's personality too. Although winning surely makes for a good clubhouse, this team is certainly more likable than 2003. The comments Blanco made after not making the first round roster are an example.
