    Cause we had no outs and 3,4,5 coming up. it was dumb. Soriano is fast enough to score The rule of thumb that 3rd base coaches uses is this: If the ball gets to the OFer (in this case the CFer) before the runner even gets to third you hold the runner up. In this case Soriano was a good 3 steps away from 3rd when the ball got to Freel. Holding Soriano up there was the good call. Yeah, I don't think you can fault Quade for not wanting to risk a baserunner on third with nobody out and the best hitters in the lineup at bat. none of those guys have gotten a hit today. give me a break. freel threw home and it was cut off because soriano was standing on 3rd. Give me a break, they should have forced the action when runs are scare. Force them to make a good throw. Quade sent Theriot is a similar situation in MIL (the CF had the ball and if it hadn't been for a great slide he was out). You have your 3-4-5 hitters due up with nobody out. Why risk making an out at the plate? Oh yeah, this is the Chicago Cubs, should have sent him.

    No.

    I am so freaking angry right now.
  4. ToupeeOnFire
    Punch Jacque in the face, Lou.
  5. ToupeeOnFire
    I can't see how Lou can keep out Theriot out of the line-up. Take a seat, Cesar.

    If they lose this game 1-0, I'm going to be......very upset.
  7. ToupeeOnFire
    At least Lilly made him work.
  8. ToupeeOnFire
    Barrett has looked lost today. Damnit, they can't touch Loshe.
  9. ToupeeOnFire
    Getting hit doesn't seem to be affecting Encarnicion in the field, he must have some amazing recuperative abilities.
  10. ToupeeOnFire
    Yay, shutout!

    Does the sample size argument only work when it is directed toward Floyd? Floyd is old and past his prime. Murton has his best years ahead of him and he's already pretty solid. Don't need sample sizes to see this stuff. My guess is that Lou wants Floyd's power in there while Aramis is out.

    Thank you Jerry Narron for being an idiot.
  13. ToupeeOnFire
    Make 'em pay for this disrespect!
  14. ToupeeOnFire
    Earn your money, Ward.
  15. ToupeeOnFire
    Remember back when we were 3-2? It was a more innocent time then. Ah, those were the days.
  16. ToupeeOnFire
    29 pitches the last 3 innings.
  17. ToupeeOnFire
    Unbelievable.
  18. ToupeeOnFire
    Hopefully Hill has a few more 10-pitch innings in him.
  19. ToupeeOnFire
    Ceson Izdeno came through in a big way.
  20. ToupeeOnFire
    It's up to Cezon Izdeno.
  21. ToupeeOnFire
    Eh, baserunners are overrated anyway.
  22. ToupeeOnFire
    Cotts has been decent thus far.
  23. ToupeeOnFire
    Alas, with the suck part of the line-up due up, it was a forlorn hope.
  24. ToupeeOnFire
    Yes, great job by Wuertz! <=== belated reaction, was on the phone while Wuertz struck out the side
  25. ToupeeOnFire
    I step out for a bit only to come back to a Carlos Zambrano implosion. Not good.
