  1. The best move would have been to start DeRosa and Theriot. I wish the Cubs managers were as wise as you. You do realize the GM can have a say in who starts. And you know his pet is Cesar. It's not always the managers call. Unfortunately.
  2. The best move would have been to start DeRosa and Theriot. Cesar is starting because Hendry says so. Them's the facts of life.
  3. Is this the fake rally? Come on Murton. Good move by Trammel.
  4. Yeah, let's score 5 You're greedy. I'll take 4. 8-)
  5. No, they are tied and the Reds have two runners in scoring position. DLEE IS THE MAN 'Oh I see that, I still think they win this division once Pujols gets hot. Why is Lily hitting here? I think we are short one reliever today.
  6. thats 5 pitches/pa. Doesn't everyone here cry about how we aren't patient? I just wish people would realize taking pitches isn't always the best strategy.
  7. 15 walks through 70+ IP isn't average. So I guess walks is the only way to judge if a pitcher is average or not no, but http://www.baseball-reference.com/pi/gl.cgi?n1=lillyte01&t=p&year=2007 shows he has been better than average for 8/11 starts and on his cumulative year stats.
  8. His WHIP is still outstanding though. He has been better than average. That's why.
  9. Last two games were bad, but only had 1 game in the previous nine where he gave up 4 runs. His ERA + is 121. So that's above average.
  10. it has nothing to do with doing the best thing for the team. He's a very patient hitter who doesn't swing at junk; that's why he walked three times. The Cubs don't lose because they have selfish players; they lose because they don't have patient hitters like Kevin Youkilis. Thank you. So patient ab's are not the best thing for the team? Contrary to nsbb.com game thread ridiculosity, it's not ALWAYS better to be "patient". Sometime taking pitches just to take pitches is an awful approach, especially if pitch one is a meat ball or a hanger down the middle. I'd rather have smart, disciplined AB's that arbitrarily "patient" ones.
  11. He certainly doesn't burn arms the way Dusty did. For that I'm very thankful.
  12. Thanks for posting. Man I wish him the best of luck. Always such a class act for the Cubs. I can't stand the losers that take pot shots at him.
  13. Good, I'm glad I'm not going crazy. :lol: Why did I have to become a cubs fan 25 years ago? Whoever can answer this question gets a cookie, and maybe more (live music cd's if I like your answer, and you like good live music, i.e not ashlee simpson).
  14. I'm travelling to san Fran for a conference and finally log in and see the score tonight and I start laughing out loud hysterically. Part of me wants them to lose every game the rest of the year so real changes are made. But that's besides the point. Are we ha-ha funny yet?
  15. You consistently make no sense. He's got a 1.61 era w a .207 baa. What share of bad outings are you talking about? Every pitcher is gonna give up SOME runs.
  16. Dude, you thought the season was over on April 24th. I don't think anyone's surprised you're done with the Cubs this year.
  17. I wonder if there will be a lot of complaining about our offense, even though we're facing one of the best pitchers in baseball. Actually, check that, I'm not wondering. I know there will be.
  18. I really hope the fans show class and don't throw him under the bus while he's struggling. I think it might be wishing for too much though.
  19. 96 was when he was amped up, and his fastball would go straight, no movement at all. It's much more effective in the 91-93 range.
  20. Wrong I'd love to hear the explanation that proves the stats (facts) wrong.
  21. So basically everyone who is whining about feast or famine need to realize that EVERY team has similar stats? This evidence will mess with peoples' need to complain about everything.
  22. But walking 2 guys with a 4 run lead is. True. :lol: I think on the whole he's been pretty good this year with his stuff at least.
  23. Dempster's BAA is .191? Is that right? That's not bad guys.
  24. Because Garwilly probably took a stats/probability class and mojo hasn't....
