Cubs have 21 bunt attempts on the season...
...with 3 hits and 13 SH.
In the NL this season there have been 357 bunt attempts, 210 SH, 50 hits and 11 reached on error.

Wow so we are right on (a little below) par with the rest of the league
357/16 = 22.3
210/16 = 13.1
50/16 = 3.1

Miller and Morgan
IMO they’re fine. The morgan bitterness gets me but overall I don’t mind them.
OK… can someone please explain why Jason Marquis is still in the rotation when there are far better options?

Great, now Morgan and Miller’s man-crush on Albert Pujols can go on forever.
BTW, I am now officially SOS-SIck of Soriano.

Why...
why run on Molina, one of the best catchers at throwing people out, and not run on Kendall…

I like Theriot's scrappiness but his baserunning is pretty mediocre.
He got a real bad jump there. Nothing to do with Molina’s throw.

Can we give Cedeno a chance at SS?
Or does Theriot have to continue to ruin any chance of scoring runs.
