thanks
-
again, anybody know the answer on Murton?
-
How do I find out what Murton's BA is with men on base since he was recalled?
-
Murton has hit well--now he has to start hitting with men on base rather than bases empty.
-
I am sure there are--there are always haters on this board.
-
no, he is not hurt.

Yea 10 runs last night, but the last 3 games before that how many did we put up? I'll pass my judgment tonight to see if last night was just a fluke. We lost 96 games last year. 96. Anybody who thinks these are "dark times" has lost their perspective.
-
we are fighting for the play-offs. Dark times?

Colitis a terrible condition which weakens you substantially. I would give Pagan a break based upon this.
-
Colitis really weakens you....

Brewers pen is in shambles. They may pitch a position player in this game. Gallardo, 80 pitches in 2 2/3
-
Pie will stay up if he hits. Piniella is looking for anybody who hits--
-
he was called up to be the long guy starting tonight, per the Trib

Creepy is reserved for Cardinal fans. Personally, I enjoyed the hell out of it too.
-
Cards are just not good. They will not stay within 10 games of the Cubs by year end. Cubs will win the division by 5+ games
-
good points. we seem to feed on our own here--and Jason deserves some kudos.
-
who closes our game tomorrow night? Howry, Marmol and Demp have to be gassed.
-
who goes down?

By Paul Sullivan Tribune staff reporter July 31, 2007, 11:33 PM CDT When Matt Murton missed a cutoff man Monday night and Ronny Cedeno popped up on the first pitch after Cole Hamels had walked two of the previous three hitters, it easily could be chalked up to youthful mistakes. But earlier in the year, manager Lou Piniella might have gone ballistic. These days he's apparently counting to 10 before getting upset.

The worst part about the Brewers beating the Mets last night
Peoriaman replied to Schwarber Fan's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Choi was the poster boy for the moneyball guys here. They thought he was a future star because he took pitches and walked a fair amount. He did no wrong. -

is the game on Insight in Peoria?

The intent is to throw to one of the two, and he succeeded in doing so. This thing is not drawn up like some sort of option play, where the OF has a choice of which infielder to throw to. And "just throw it somewhere over thisaway and one of the guys will grab it" is certainly not the plan. The design is to have the first guy as the intended cutoff man, with the second, trailing guy giving the first guy (who has his back to the infield awaiting the OF's throw) verbal direction on where to go with the relay throw. Providing backup for the OF's throw is guy #2's secondary responsibility. The bottom line is that if the ball ends up with guy #2, there was a problem with the throw in from the OF... either the throw itself was offline or long/short, or possibly guy #1 wasn't where he should've been. well said--better than I said it. :)

I don't see it as a given that Murton will outperform Floyd down the stretch. If I were Piniella, I would play Murton against lefties, and Floyd against righties.
-
well, as he made a throw that one of them corralled, I agree. The second guy is protection against the first guy being missed, and it worked. I think Sut made too much out of it, but the double cut did work. Now if he had thrown it over the second man's head, then a problem would have existed. My point is the intent is to throw it to the 1st guy and if you miss, which he did, you have back up. He jsut didn't miss too badly. He ain't Sammy. :)
