Say something optimistic about Edmonds on the Cubs
Magnetic Curses replied to bukie's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
because we don't particularly like him and Pie is going to the minors for him. pie wasn't playing anyway. do you think that not signing edmonds would have saved your precious pie? Honestly, I'm kind of with you. If they aren't going to give Pie AB's in this nearly perfect senario, might was well throw someone in the mix who isn't Reed Johnson. don't get me wrong, i want pie to play, i just don't see it happening, ever. -

i don't get the hate. he's basically a free player, but if you guys want to be meatballs about it..... -
you're actually surprised? He's not getting demoted this month I want a DFA not going to happen.
-
well, most of you aren't cub meatballs, so you've got that going for you.
-
You know it, suckas.
-
yes! let the reign of edmonds begin. haha.
-
if peavy hadn't gotten a hit.........lilly has no-hit stuff tonight.
-
somebody remind me, have we traded lee and zambrano for this guy or have we picked him up for virtually nothing? quit yer bitchin, everybody.
-
yes, foul off ten in a row.
-
scott hairston looks like the thing.
-
swing the bat, huber, you douche.
-
he's at 52 pitches in the 2nd.
-
make peavy pitch his arm off.
-
he had a double today so that probably buys him a while.
-
i have no idea why lou would bat reed in that situation. he's just as set in his ways as dusty is, and i don't think his stay in chicago will end well.
-
as does Jason Marquis' trade value. his trade value was a puddle before the season started, now it's.... i dunno, water in a well or something. he became untradeable the moment he signed that deal.
-
If it was stopped right now, then I think the Cubs would be able to get a continuation right? We haven't batted fully yet. Nope. The game would essentially reset to before the Padres batted this inning. what if the cubs took the lead?
-
it's not going to happen. marquis will finish the season as a starter. no way they pull Marquis after this. He'll have to continue to suck for another month at the very least, unless someone really wants to trade for him or he gets much worse than he currently is i wouldn't be surprised if he finished next season as a starter, either.
-
'member when jody gerut played that one game for us?
-

Yeah, I'm pretty much done with this team. K, cya cover his ass?

No, that is why sacrifice bunts that aren't executed well are stupid. Giving away outs in the 5th is always stupid. I know - I hate it when I position my best 2 hitters to be hitting with 2 runners in scoring position with 1 out. IF they did walk Lee with the bases loaded, we'd get Ramirez and Fukudome with the bases loaded. How stupid.... can you read? they would have just walked lee, anyway. this way they pitch to him. i'd advise giving the bunting argument up. it doesn't really go over well, here.

No, that is why sacrifice bunts that aren't executed well are stupid. no, bunting with your #2 hitter is stupid. or, having a #2 hitter who you'd rather bunt with in that situation is stupid. That makes no sense. Bunting with your #2 hitter - essentially trying to put 2 runners in scoring position for your 2 best hitters is stupid knowing full well this game may be called very soon? it makes perfect sense. you don't put a guy in the #2 spot in the order if you feel fine sacrificing his out. plus, the game is in the 5th inning.
