  1. but the umpire wasnt calling him out. Jones stays on the bag and the ump was calling him safe.
  2. Well we sent 1 guy back to AAA for doin the same stupid crap, can we do the same with the idiot Jones
  3. Good job you damn moron Jones. Stay on the damn bag idiot
  4. I know what you are saying Banedon. No matter how many times I post his earned runs allowed broken down by games, people still keep saying it, but these same people are completely ignoring Marquis inconsistency. Its rather "inconsistent" wouldnt you say?
  5. Good now lets pray #600, #700, and #800 come in a Cubs uniform :wink:
  6. Boy am I glad we gave Marquis that 3 year deal. I think right now, Gallagher would put up better numbers than Marquis and for a whole hell lot cheaper. Chalk this up as another one of Jim Hendrys finest... Who would've been starting from April thru June had we not had Marquis? Guzman possibly. I know he is hurt right now, but who knows if he would have been had he been starting regularly. I just hate the fact they gave Marquis a 3 year deal, when we have some kids in the minors who project to be better starters than he is. Guzman? Yeah right. And Marquis has sucked basically every year, so Id rather take my chances with a young kid, then hand out a 3 yr 21 million dollar deal for a terrible pitcher. That kid has been hurt every year.

I just hate the fact they gave Marquis a 3 year deal, when we have some kids in the minors who project to be better starters than he is. That's the train of thought that led us to last year's rotation. I'm as big a proponent as anyone of letting young guys get playing time, but at the same time, there's always attrition and ineffectiveness that goes on in the starting rotation. In the offseason you had health question marks for Prior, Miller, Guzman, Mateo, and Marshall. Gallagher didn't have any real success beyond Daytona, and the only other option on the 40 man was Samardzija. To not add another starter was an invitation for the carousel of disaster starts that was the bottom half of the rotation last year. There was still no reason to give a 3 year deal to somebody as bad as Marquis.

  9. Cards Lose in the 9th! Ryan Zimmerman walk off single

  11. Hill should stay as well. Besides his last outing, his previous 3 starts were all good starts and he still has respectable numbers. IF anybody was to be removed from the rotation it should be Jason Marquis. Marquis is basically living off his first 2 months of the season, and the 2 months since then have been horrible. However the only way I see anybody getting moved out of the rotation is if somebody gets hurt. As for you disagreeing about Pie because of his impatience, Jones is not any more patient than Felix is. However Felix gives you top notch D in CF, and the likelihood of improving, while we know what we have with Jones, and its nothing spectacular at the plate. Jones D has been horrible of late, and if hes not going to play good D, then there really is no reason for him to be here. Fun Fact Jones has as many HRs as Felix does in the Majors this year in 150 more AB's. Felix only has 13 fewer RBI than Jones, and 12 less runs scored. Why is Jones the better option?
  12. Im hoping not much longer
  13. Considering Dopirak has already been at AA, your "prediction" would be pretty meaningless, now wouldn't it? Do you post just for the sake of posting most of the time, or do you ever have actual content to contribute? Just curious. Pot meet kettle? So read the "significant time past AA" and tell me how much sense your post made.
  14. My God, what does he have to do to earn a job on the Cubs.
  15. I swear I never heard of strained obliques until the last 2 years or so. Now it seems like its the most common injury out there.
  16. Why do people keep saying Marshall is inconsistent? Why do people keep trying to remove him from the rotation? Marshalls earned runs in his starts this year:7, 1, 1, 2, 2, 6, 0, 4, 2, 1,1, 2 ,2 So would somebody, please explain to me what is inconsistent about that? Because the only thing that looks inconsistent to me, are his 3 outings when he gave up more than 2 runs.
  17. Milw up 1-0 in the bottom half of the 3rd
  18. So now Wood will be coming into at worst a tie game, man I hope he can control his emotions, cause its not going to be easy to do.
  19. Because 1 run is impossible to get in 3 innings??? we've hit our 2 HR limit for the week so we are screwed :wink:
