:shock:

It proably makes up for a game where he pitched good and got no run support somewhere along the line. There was a start, I think in late April or early May, where Lilly pitched against Kyle Lohse at Wrigley and lost 1-0 after pitching a fantastic game.

Fred's numbers go through the end of 2006. it's entirely possible that he didn't give the Cardinals credit for any of their wins in the past decade or so ???? The baseball-reference site shows the St. Louis franchise beginning in 1882, which is correct. But they didn't join the predecessor of what is now the National League until 1892. That should be the discrepency you noticed..... also, the Cincinnati franchise joined the league in 1876, but jumped to a different league in 1881, and then returned to the national league in 1890.... so there may be a discrepency there also. Any numbers I give you should be regular season W/L totals for teams in the National League and it's predecessor leagues, or the American League, as established in 1901.

9948 (9901 through 2006 plus 47 so far this year). They'd need to win 99 games in the regular season to reach 10,000 this year. Ain't gonna happen. Yeah..... sez who ??? :bluekoolaid:

I remember the Cubs being the first team to 8000 wins. I think it happened in the late 70s or early 80s. Shocking how many wins the Giants have put on us since then. The CUBS won their 8,000th game in 1982. The Giants won theirs in 1980. Perhaps your memory didn't latch onto the phrase "in one city" when the CUBS were making a big deal out of that ??

Just because it rains on Tuesday doesn't mean they would suddenly switch to AL rules for the day :roll: Hey.... don't quit yer day job, eh? :wink:

I haven't had a chance to read any of this thread yet, but I was asked to post these numbers....... so here they are......... A) Five starters while Barrett was on the team B) Five starters after Barrett was traded C) Five starters whole season totals D) Staff as a whole, including relievers 04/02 - 06/19 IP H R ER BB K HR PC BB/9 K/9 HR/9 WHIP ERA R Hill 89.3 66 34 32 27 79 15 1292 2.72 7.96 1.51 1.04 3.22 Lilly 85.3 73 38 35 17 72 10 1277 1.79 7.59 1.05 1.05 3.69 Marquis 83.0 68 37 29 31 46 7 1309 3.36 4.99 0.76 1.19 3.14 Zambrano 97.3 93 53 49 43 74 15 1661 3.98 6.84 1.39 1.40 4.53 Marshall 38.0 31 13 12 10 31 6 579 2.37 7.34 1.42 1.08 2.84 06/20 - 07/16 IP H R ER BB K HR PC BB/9 K/9 HR/9 WHIP ERA R Hill 22.7 25 14 14 7 20 4 396 2.78 7.94 1.59 1.41 5.56 Lilly 35.3 27 12 12 11 33 3 544 2.80 8.41 0.76 1.08 3.06 Marquis 26.3 32 22 20 13 18 6 445 4.44 6.15 2.05 1.71 6.84 Zambrano 34.3 18 7 7 14 40 2 578 3.67 10.49 0.52 0.93 1.83 Marshall 13.7 17 9 8 7 7 0 214 4.61 4.61 0.00 1.76 5.27 04/02 - 07/16 IP H R ER BB K HR PC BB/9 K/9 HR/9 WHIP ERA R Hill 112.0 91 48 46 34 99 19 1688 2.73 7.96 1.53 1.12 3.70 Lilly 120.7 100 50 47 28 105 13 1821 2.09 7.83 0.97 1.06 3.51 Marquis 109.3 100 59 49 44 64 13 1754 3.62 5.27 1.07 1.32 4.03 Zambrano 131.7 111 60 56 57 114 17 2239 3.90 7.79 1.16 1.28 3.83 Marshall 51.7 48 22 20 17 38 6 793 2.96 6.62 1.05 1.26 3.48 whole staff IP H R ER BB K HR PC BB/9 K/9 HR/9 WHIP ERA 04/02 - 06/19 627.0 562 290 271 227 510 77 9923 3.26 7.32 1.11 1.26 3.89 06/20 - 07/16 193.3 174 90 84 74 181 19 3190 3.44 8.43 0.88 1.28 3.91 04/02 - 07/16 820.3 736 380 355 301 691 96 13113 3.30 7.58 1.05 1.26 3.89

There is not a doubt in my mind that Marshall & Marquis will get back on track just as Rich Hill did tonight. Rothschild has everything under control. The only thing we really need to be concerned about is how we're going to score tickets for October's games. Go CUBS !! :bluekoolaid:

The Philadelphia Phillies' history of futility is so complete and uniform throughout the life of the franchise that the loss of Jenkins and Sandberg wouldn't have made a dent in it. The only reason they seem to escape real scrutiny in discussions of futility is that their one and only World Series win occurred within recent memory. They, too, went 97 years without a title. 1876 thru 2006 World Series team W L pct PA W L San Francisco Giants 10117 8632 0.540 22 5 12 Los Angeles Dodgers 9391 8531 0.524 24 6 12 Chicago Cubs 9901 9387 0.513 14 2 8 Pittsburgh Pirates 9327 8987 0.509 14 5 2 St. Louis Cardinals 8984 8679 0.509 23 10 7 Cincinnati Reds 9196 9107 0.502 12 5 4 Atlanta Braves 9612 9639 0.499 20 3 6 Philadelphia Phillies 8734 9967 0.467 9 1 4

If it were me, I'd be on eBay right now trying to trade, buy, sell, upgrade, whatever to get there on Tues instead !!

I'm predicting 11-4 over that stretch. :) :bluekoolaid:
