  1. I understand that he's not going to get much playing time, but not even an at-bat? I know it's difficult with that stud Macias getting most of the pinch hits, but I'm sure Dusty can find Soto an at-bat somewhere.
  2. Welly, too. Is Wellmeyer still on the roster? Or is he in the Witness Protection Program with Geovany Soto? I thought Soto was just taking Yosh's job in the clubhouse. Does he even get dressed in uniform before the games? I wouldn't if I were him. Has he seen any playing time at all? Why Hendry even called up Soto, Theriot, Hill, McClain, etc. is a complete mystery. He actually thought Dusty would play these guys? Soto is still waiting for his major league debut. He's going to be waiting a while. Poor guy.

  4. Haha. Wouldn't it just figure that it would pour buckets with 2 outs in the 9th? :D
  5. Derrek Lee is good. Too bad the rest of the team sucks.
  6. It's gonna be sweet watching the Cardinals celebrating at Wrigley. :wall:
  7. Another good start to the game by Prior. :roll:
  8. At least Murton is playing on a consistent basis now. Can't have your cake and eat it too.
  9. I might have to join Vance and start watching Lifetime instead of the Cubs.
  10. Hehe. Vance watches Lifetime. :lol:
  11. I turn on the game for a second so I can see Murton bat and Macias gets thrown out to end the inning. Go figure. :roll:
  12. Starting Lineups No. Cincinnati Chicago Cubs 1 Ryan Freel, 2B Jerry Hairston Jr., CF 2 Felipe Lopez, SS Neifi Perez, SS 3 Rich Aurilia, 3B Derrek Lee, 1B 4 Adam Dunn, LF Nomar Garciaparra, 3B 5 Sean Casey, 1B Todd Walker, 2B 6 Austin Kearns, RF Jose Macias, RF 7 Javier Valentin, C Matt Murton, LF 8 Wily Mo Pena, CF Henry Blanco, C 9 Aaron Harang, P Greg Maddux, P Gotta love Macias batting in front of Murton.
  13. No way Dusty would play Neifi in LF. Now CF on the otherhand...
  14. It's amazing to me that the Cubs can actually win games with the managing that takes place late in games. Another great save by Dempster. What a stud.
  15. And Macias almost kills Lee. Glad he's on the team.
  16. Is Corey even trying anymore or is he just going up there with it in his mind that he's going to swing at pitches often so he can get back to the dugout as soon as possible? What a waste of talent.
  17. I'm glad Dusty is so fond of the double switches. It really works out well for us that Cpatt and Macias get at-bats in key situations instead of Murton and anyone else.
  18. Gotta love watching Corey swinging as hard as he can on 3 straight pitches and then walking back to the dugout. It's become an all too familiar sight.
  19. Good to see Murton getting another start. It was expected that Neifi would be at short with Cedeno hurting. Not a bad lineup I guess. Maybe I'll watch this one. :)
  20. Best news I've heard all day. Guess I won't have to watch the Cubs lose again. And seriously, Corey Patterson leading off? Come on already with this crap.
  21. ditto Agreed. Not worth watching. Have a good night all.
  22. Haha. I'm glad Murton never gets to play. I know not many players can slide into first base headfirst on a consistent basis like Hairston does, but I think Murton should at least get a shot at it once in a while.
  23. Is it wrong to hope Rusch tanks so Hill will get a bunch of innings tonight?
  24. Doesn't matter if you take away those guys because there will be other crappy veterans brought in to round out the roster and Dusty will just use them.
  25. Wake me up when it's spring training 2006...
