  1. Cool...O'Malley almost gets killed and then throws a strike, I like to see that.
  2. He's battling and keeping the counts decent. It was a weak grounder to Theriot.
  3. I can't believe the guy is catching again today.
  4. Well...the hot streak is over....Jonesey, you ready to go in now?
  5. I thought one was a strike but it's really hard to tell on TV IMO.
  6. Man on first and a 3-2 count with one out...I'm surprised Baker didn't call for a pitchout.
  7. He's still upset at Charleston Heston for screwing up his world domination plans.
  8. I understand that we aren't going to agree with all the moves a Cub manager will do but Baker just baffles me almost all the time.
  9. With a rookie pitching for the Cubs, I don't get it.
  10. Anyone can knock Billy Beane all they want but don't even think about saying anything bad about Billy Barty. That's where I draw the line.
  11. Wow. There's a lot of ignorance on that message board. So Ensberg is having a horrible, wretched year, but his WARP is exactly the same (3.9) as Aramis Ramirez, and he's had fewer at-bats. So the Astros problem is clutch hitting with RISP? That sounds like something Jim Hendry would say. So the Astros need to play more small ball? Bunt more? Hit more sacrifice flies? It seems they haven't discovered OBP yet, either. Are public schools failing in Houston? The squeeze play worked out nicely for them!
  12. It's nice to see Baker reward Theriot with a start and a 2 slot in the batting order! Why is Pagan ahead of Murton though?
  13. Credit? The kid was cruising. 78 pitches through 5 innings with a 3 run lead. If he is worried about Mateo getting beaned, then tell him not to hit Clemens in the first place. Dusty takes Mateo out and Wuertzman promptly goes out there and blows it. Now the entire bullpen is tired from playing 18 innings. I know if the bullpen shut the Astros down for 4 innings I wouldn't be saying this, but the fact of the matter is they did, just shining a light on another bonehead Dusty move. I saw Ohman get lit up before Weurtz. I don't have a problem with the move in the least. Yeah, in hindsight it went 18 which happens once in a blue moon so it looks worse. I think the pen should be able to hold that type of lead.
  14. I see and understand why Dusty did it and the pen should be able to hold a 3 run lead. Also, do we know if Mateo was gassed and told Baker? I think Baker was trying to do a decent thing for the kid and I give him credit for that.
  15. Maybe it was in Canada and in Kilometers?
  16. I give Baker credit for taking the kid out. You know Clemens was going to hit him while not getting kicked out for some reason. I knew Baker was going to put Theriot up to hit for Mateo though and I was hoping Roit would be able to dodge the fastballs which he did pretty well!
  17. I'm very curious on what the Man is going to do today regarding the lineup.
  18. This was a lot like many Super Bowls! At least Derwood didn't have a 2 week break in between the last polls.
