The sun may even be out by now. Otherwise it's going to be another cold afternoon. Let's hope the Cub bats have warmed up!

why did i know Theriot was

either going to ground out or pop up?

by bluekoolaide on Apr 4, 2008 2:49 PM CDT   0 recs

Because people arent realizing

The Ronny Cedeno is better at baseball the Theriot and should be given the job.

Nothing I've seen indicates

that Ronny Cedeno is better at baseball than Ryan Theriot.

by drewishdrewid on Apr 4, 2008 2:51 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

In a game of "one on one" in baseball

if it was possible, Ronny Cedeno would win every time.

Thats why I said if possible. Ronny is better at baseball period. Dont give me crap about him sliding past the bag.

because even all-star players

ground out or pop up 65% of the time.

But they also come through

by bluekoolaide on Apr 4, 2008 2:52 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

sure.

You really wanna be making this judgement on the fourth game of the season?

Theriot won the position last year. He hasn't lost it this year.

He just shouldn't

be at the top of the order

by bluekoolaide on Apr 4, 2008 2:50 PM CDT   0 recs

Or the middle.

Or the bottom.

Because he sucks at hitting.

I has a blog.

by cwyers on Apr 4, 2008 2:52 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Agree

Him and Derosa should be switched in the order.

That's 56 pitches through 6 full innings and no runs

for a man with a career 5.00ERA.

sweet!

by SouthsideCub on Apr 4, 2008 2:51 PM CDT   0 recs

Have you been watching the game?

Sampson has been around the plate all day. If they don't swing, then they'll strike out.

by Not Bruce Froemming on Apr 4, 2008 2:53 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

does that mean

those pitches aren't hittable?

by SouthsideCub on Apr 4, 2008 2:54 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

On a normal day

The Cubs probably are leading this one 7-2.

by Not Bruce Froemming on Apr 4, 2008 2:55 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

i think we can both agree

this is another example of the cubs making an average pitcher look really good.

by SouthsideCub on Apr 4, 2008 2:57 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Not really

Sampson has pitched well today.

So did Hill. One lucky homer is what did him in.

This is a...

...pretty normal day for April in Chicago.

by Shawon O Meter on Apr 4, 2008 2:59 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

it means we're not hitting them

today.

by drewishdrewid on Apr 4, 2008 2:55 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

It's just 3 games and soon it will be just 162 games..

but I still don't see how we have vastly improved over last year. We still cannot hit period. We have two big huge holes in the form of Theriot and Pie in the lineup.

Was this

a "quality start" by Hill? And why do I feel slightly ill?

by patron on Apr 4, 2008 2:53 PM CDT   0 recs

Because it's deja vu all over again

once again Cubs don't score when hill pitches

by bluekoolaide on Apr 4, 2008 2:54 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

2 ER in 6 IP

is a 3.00 ERA. Not bad, really.

At least, nothing that a little offense couldn't cure.

by DeRoMyHero on Apr 4, 2008 2:55 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

I believe a quality start is at least 6.2 innings.

Still, overall, not a bad job by Hill. He's, once again, getting NO run support. Sound familar?

Really? I always though it had to be at least six and two-thirds.

I could have made that up myself, though.

Hammer is correct

6 IP or more, 3 ER or fewer
