    Wasn't it Baylor who did that?

    A pitcher with a low K/9 can succeed as long as he has a good BB/9 and good HR/9. Wang's pretty much doing exactly that. Limiting the baserunners and the homers makes life easier on a guy who doesn't strike out very many. That said, Wang is likely going to be a 3/4 starter over the course of his career.

    I'm going to keep ripping Novoa. He seems to do well when that happens.

    Walker was just giving us an excuse to work a few "Neifi sucks" comments into the game thread. Neifi sucks. OK, what did I miss? Walker changed his jersey in the clubhouse and accidentally put on Neifi's #13. He had to run back in and do a quick change.

    Roberto Novoa AGAIN?! He friggin' sucks!

    What the crap is that thing on Speizio's face?
  7. Outshined_One
    He probably thought the coach was too drunk to make the call. Considering Chris Speier is back coaching at 3rd , I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case.

    Marmol running through the stop sign was among the funniest things I've seen this season. It was like watching a train wreck.

    Cubs seem to have the most success against pitchers who try to get ahead early in the count, so you may be onto something. Also, the fact that Pujols has sucked against the Cubs so far this season has helped that endeavor greatly.

    9 pitches, 6 hits. Cubs baseball!
  11. Outshined_One
    Cubs have hit the cycle in this inning. Yay.

    Hornsby? Dizzy Dean. Len thought Hornsby, but apparently he doesn't have a logo on his cap. Ditto Alexander. Trick question!

    Lou Brock is one of them for the AFLAC trivia question. The other former Cub in the HOF as a Cardinal? Hm...

    Pagan versus Murton was brought up in this thread because Pagan was starting in place of Murton in LF. Marmol was not starting in Rich Hill's place in today's game. If he wants to start a thread comparing Marshall and Marmol to Hill, he's more than welcome to do so.

    Eckstein bunted poorly with men on first and second. Marmol grabbed it and threw the ball to Ramirez in a nice play. Ramirez tried to get Eckstein at first, but airmailed it over Walker's head (Mabry was charging). Marquis came around to score and the guy backing up Walker made a horrible throw to Barrett, allowing Eck to take second.

    It's one thing to start new discussions about these matters. It's another thing altogether to throw them into a discussion where it has little to no relevance.
  17. Outshined_One
    Somehow I'm not surprised that happened.
  18. Outshined_One
    Come on Tony, screw this up somehow.
  19. Outshined_One
    My problem is that he has been involved in a number of heated discussions regarding Rich Hill on this board (including one in yesterday's game thread). There's nothing wrong with his opinion, but it's getting to a point where I'm absolutely sick and tired of people stirring the pot just to cause trouble. We've covered Rich Hill's ability/inability to perform as a major leaguer. There is no reason to keep drudging it up again and again to backhandedly bash other posters, prove a point, or just make trouble. There was absolutely no need to bring Rich Hill into the conversation of Marmol's ability.
  20. Outshined_One
    Seriously dude, this is unnecessary. It's obnoxious and troll-like. No one was talking about Hill vs. Marmol and Marshall in here. You brought it up. Please knock it off.
  21. Outshined_One
    Eh, they could gut it and rebuild it from the inside out like Yankee Stadium.
  22. Outshined_One
    I prefer the Montgomery Biscuits.
  23. Outshined_One
    A THREE HOUR TOUR! ...sorry, I had to make that joke the moment I saw Len and Bob wearing those hats. :D
  24. Outshined_One
    The Midwest League is about 21.9, so it has to be higher in the FSL. Was that the average age before or after this year's draft?
  25. Outshined_One
    I'm impressed the Rangers didn't have to give up Danks, Diamond, or Volquez in this deal.
