wasnt his fielding % in the .980 last year?
that isnt bad
by bheidge on May 3, 2008 4:04 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
A game thread really isn't the place to hash this out again...
...but fielding percentage is entirely useless, because you can’t make an error if you don’t make it to the baseball, and it’s not an error if the runner beats out your throw. So you can perhaps see why a guy with good hands but poor range and arm would put up a good fielding percentage but not actually be good on defense.

For those of us in LA
they finally fixed the Fox Espanol feed of the game. For some reason, in the top of the 4th, the feed was almost 5 minutes behind. So I watched the rally in Spanish, which was fine. Now I can sync Pat & Ron to the Spanish feed and be back in business. Go Cubs!!
But it is wierd that every half inning of the game, the feed/sync timing changes. Fox is messed up!

Defense like that and he’s finally hitting the ball… What is your problem, Lou? Senility?

You can tell they're not happy. I hate this crew,

Save him for tomorrow. Lou is slumping.

Just because Marmol batted
doesn’t mean he’s going to pitch the ninth. He probably will, but I’ve seen Lou and other managers do this with a big lead.

Seems like a good time to get Gallagher in a ballgame.
Huh, Lou?

glad to see others
are as mystified by the decision to use Marmol for 2 innings let alone at all in this game
Marmol’s thrown 20+ innings already… he’s on pace for nearly 100… this isn’t a good plan for our future
by DartmouthCubsFan on May 3, 2008 5:38 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
Didn't the bullpen throw 11 innings yesterday?
Except for Marmol that is?

by JohnM on May 3, 2008 5:39 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
yes
but we just called up Gallagher who was supposed to start yesterday. He’s completely fresh and should be used when we’re up 6 runs and need 2 innings. If things get hairy, then you bring in Marmol
by DartmouthCubsFan on May 3, 2008 5:41 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Good point
But trying to guess Lou’s logic, he probably thinks he needs to save Gallagher for a possible long relief stint, since Lieber won’t be available for a few days after yesterday,

And Lieber may even be
heading to the rotation

by JohnM on May 3, 2008 5:44 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Lieber is in the rotation
but Marmol is our most valued young pitching commodity right now. Throwing him this much in meaningless games as Lou has already done twice this year is Dusty-esque
by DartmouthCubsFan on May 3, 2008 5:46 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
you've got Marshall
who can do that as well, if Lou wasn’t so committed to making him a lefty specialist. We have multiple arms capable of going more than 1 inning, this was senseless today
by DartmouthCubsFan on May 3, 2008 5:47 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Plus Marshall was warming up.
Why do that if he was not going to come into the game? IMO, Mármol should have been properly rested and not pitch at all today, or at the very least no more than one inning.

Lou needs...
...a bit of knocking around by the media today.
Maybe that will wake him up. Fontenot came through, but shit, that lineup sucked today. And Marmol for 2 IP?! WTF.

I missed you all too, especially with the win.
I was calling Northwestern Wildcats @ Illinois Fighting Illini play-by-play on the radio (Illini 14-4, F), but my color commentator was getting text updates on his phone whenever the Cubs scored and I was more than happy to pass them along. Let’s get ‘em again tonight!
