    For like a week. Why? He's been lights out for the majority of his appearances, which have almost all come in long relief. The guy needs to get into the rotation. Well what do you mean by "he is the answer"? He's not the answer for us winning the division and certainly not for us winning the World Series. I like Lieber and I like what he's done so far, but let's be realistic. He's a mid to high 4's ERA pitcher at best at this point of his career and probably wouldn't stay healthy the whole season. He's good to have in sitations like this, but he's a band-aid, a back end of the rotation starter maybe. Going into the season we needed Hill to perform like last season. Replacing him with a number 5 starter is not "the answer" unless it's only for a couple weeks until Hill finds his command in Iowa. If we don't have the good Rich Hill, then this rotation is going to be in serious serious trouble when Ryan Dempster remembers he's Ryan Dempster (and it's only a matter of time before it all catches up to Ryan so let's not kid ourselves).

    Decided to finally make this poll after the recent Gallardo happening. I'm only going to include the 2 obvious choices.

    With a tired pen and Ramirez likely on the bench, I don't like this game.

    Looks like we're going to get to see Scherzer first hand next weekend.

    This is from Lou after the game: That being said, putting him in the pen would be stupid. We need him as a starter this season. If he has to be removed, then let him start in Iowa until he finds his control.

    Wait... so you're saying it's the Cubs fault that he walked 4 of the 6 guys he faced tonight? No I'm not, but it certainly could have contributed to his struggle. Are you telling me that giving a guy who is suffering from control problems 9 days off is a good way to remedy control problems? Hill is struggling, I'm not saying he's not, but they ar handlingim poorly and not helping. They need to be doing everything possible to help him re-gain his 2007 form, and giving him 9 days off does not do that. He needs to be starting every 5th day, whether its here or in Iowa.

    Bob was wondering the same thing

    hilarious.

    Soriano triple play to end it?
  11. 17 Seconds
    Are you seriously blaming Howry? He got 6 outs in a row.
  12. 17 Seconds
    No rehab assigment necessary.
  13. 17 Seconds
    LOLOLOLOLOL
  14. 17 Seconds
    Ramirez is out of the game? 2006 anyone?
  15. 17 Seconds
    Soriano clearly didn't need to go on a rehab assignment. Clearly.

    The hack attack is back.

    Please god no.

    This is embarrassing. How many defensive lapses for Pie tonight? 6?
  20. 17 Seconds
    Let's see here...a guy is strugglign big time with his comman, so you skip his start and bench him for 9 days. Then he walks 4 guys in the first innings? I can't believe it! Who would have guessed?

    I really don't understand why a Brewers fan (with a huge Brewers sig, no less) is even posting on here.

    "Let's play name that Molina" Ravech is almost never on anymore either. Berthiaume/Eduardo Perez/Fernando Vina is a nightmare lineup. It needs to be Ravech/Hershiser/Kurkjian every day and that's it.

    In the PCL.

    Who is peoriaman and why does he talk as thought he knows things?
  25. 17 Seconds
    he does it with home runs from any player, not just howard. I'm pretty sure it's from the bible. It's his catch phrase and he uses it WAY too much.
