    I don't trading Pierre through the waiver wire will get the return desired thus far in the thread.
  2. Transmogrified Tiger
    point spreads are dumb
  3. Transmogrified Tiger
    Howry is the Cubs worst reliever? Howry pitched the 8th, not a "give up a run and lose" situation. Time and time again Dusty has gone to the back of the bullpen for the 9th, 10th, etc. innings when tied on the road.
  4. Transmogrified Tiger
    I don't disagree with you about the kill me part, Novoa isn't great. But Wuertz did pitch yesterday and the Cubs are out of it. Why over use him? He did pitch yesterday, but not either of the previous 2 days. I don't think it's over use to pitch him an inning today.
  5. Transmogrified Tiger
    That had nothing to do with it. Novoa was slow to the plate with a slider, the base was stolen long before Bynum was involved.
  6. Transmogrified Tiger
    OOC, I was only half watching the game, who else was available? Wuertz Aardsma Ohman Dempster Not exactly a murderers row of pitchers there. All are better than Novoa. And it's not just today, Dusty's philosophy is completely backwards with how to handle 9th inning ties/extra inning games on the road.
  7. Transmogrified Tiger
    Is Dusty the only manager in the majors that goes from his worst reliever on up when his team gets into "give up a run and lose" situations?
  8. Transmogrified Tiger
    "right now meaning RIGHT NOW"
  9. Transmogrified Tiger
    haha, Novoa over Wuertz? kill me please
  10. Transmogrified Tiger
    Rosenthal said calf cramps
  11. Transmogrified Tiger
    Why would LaRussa bat the .132 Carpenter and then pull him before pitching the next half inning. It doesn't have anything to do with Rosental. :? Why would he send him to the mound the next inning? Why wouldn't he pinch run with him, especially when he's the go ahead run?
  12. Transmogrified Tiger
    I still don't buy it. Rosenthal is a stooge.
  13. Transmogrified Tiger
    Now what did he do? Took the trainer with him so he could talk to Carpenter at first base. There was zero indication there was anything close to wrong with him, even McCarver picked up on the ploy.
  14. Transmogrified Tiger
    Bush league nonsense by LaRussa there.
  15. Transmogrified Tiger
    What the heck Dusty, stop trying to play manager and just take Hill out of the game(if that's what you want). You don't gain any leverage by waiting until Bennett is announced.
  16. Transmogrified Tiger
    wtg Hill
  17. Transmogrified Tiger
    So who's getting dumped from the 40 man? O'Malley?
  18. Transmogrified Tiger
    Why can't the Des Moines Register spell Walrond's name?
  19. Transmogrified Tiger
    He played nearly 450 games in CF in his career. Where'd you get that number? Baseball Reference lists 57 games in CF, out of 2850 games played. BP says 446. Baseball Reference lists him as an "OF" for over 2000 of those games.
  20. Transmogrified Tiger
    I don't know anything about Fregosi other than he used to manage the Phils. Anyone got the lowdown on him?
  21. Transmogrified Tiger
    According to Baseball Reference he never made the big leagues, and there's no mention of him in the baseball cube(although I doubt that TBC is comprehensive all the way back to Leyland's days).
  22. Transmogrified Tiger
    A brilliant mastermind, you are.
  23. Transmogrified Tiger
    I've thought about this a little bit, and this seems to be a good spot for it. If we go with Pie next year, should we find a platoon partner for him? A quick scan of Cot's FA list doesn't give much hope for RH CFers, and then there's still Jones and Murton who we may want to platoon as well. Maybe someone in Rule 5 would fit the bill? Pagan has been horrible against LHP this year, and there's some question to whether he can handle CF, so I don't think he'd work.
  24. Transmogrified Tiger
    Nonsense. Let's send Pie down to Peoria or Boise for the year, he'd dwarf what Fox did.
  25. Transmogrified Tiger
    I can't believe Pie is still losing to Fox, this is unacceptable people. I won't stand for this, it won't do at all.
