Just wanted to point out we will probably be missing Webb this weekend. He is scheduled to throw Thusday. It's looking like Haren, Scherzer and Mr. "12-0 1.98 ERA lifetime vs. Cubs" Randy Johnson
Simon struck out in roughly 9% of his ABs during his entire career. Soriano has struck out in roughly 22% of his ABs during his entire career. I think a better Simon comparison would be Vlad (obviously despite the huge talent gap). Vlad is a bad ball hitter but strikes out only 12% of the time.
the khalils are 12-20 i piss my pants thinking about that matchup Except, we'll almost certainly face Peavy and/or Young so they will shut us down and we will lose.
I think alot of people have been saying this since we signed him. I read in the Trib that Cedeno was taking fly balls in CF before the game. Hopefully this means he will take over and platoon with Pie
Thats the 5th time we've got the leadoff man on in the game. We scored in 2 of those innings, and in the other 3 we didn't move the runner over even one base.
WHEN IS THE LAST TIME YOU SAW THE FANS GIVE THE CATCHER A STANDING OVATION FOR THROWING OUT A RUNNER! IF THIS WAS AT WRIGLEY THE FANS WOULD HAVE THROWN TRASH ON THE FIELD!!!
Oh no, did Lou just make a Bobby Bonds reference to describe a situation in today's game? That might be the figurative turning point in the Lou Pinielle era.
