If taking something off his fastball

I just wish I had

more confidence in our pitching coach (Larry) to get Marmol out of this control funk. I have been down on Rothschild since he was here with Dusty. I have just never been a big fan of him. I can’t put my finger on it, but as good as our pitchers are, I think a better pitching coach can get more out of them.

THIS IS OUR CENTURY!!

He is overrated

I would love Leo Mazzone to be the pitching coach. Isn’t he available right now?

by Geo4MVP on Jun 21, 2008 2:42 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

I would love for the Cubs to

bring in Greg Maddux. If he would ever retire (he stays in too good of shape). I assume that is why the organization is playing out the string with LR.

Odd thought.

Is that a benefit to bringing him on mid season? Wouldn’t he be more likely to come to us if he retired with us? And plus, that whole presence thing.

I’ll be honest, I like the Maddux move.

Remember the pitching coach that got Wood and Prior going? I think he got canned for a falling out with Dusty.

No prob

...I missed the first part. LOL. He was talking about Jim Edmonds and how he was worth the risk when we acquired him, and now he’s paying some big dividends.

Quick thought

Why don’t the Cubs go with the following rotation?

Sunday: Dempster
Tuesday: Marshall
Wednesday: Gallagher
Thursday: Marquis
Friday: Lilly
Saturday: Dempster
Sunday: Gallagher ?

I think Marshall pitched Thursday...

so tuesday would be his next start…

OK, to clear the air .. to prove there's no racism here ..

Here’s a pretty black girl. Let’s assume she’s a Sox fan.

I rest my case.

Well, Next Year is here .. and Jack's century's gotta end some time .. GO CUBBIES!

Good morning from Okinawa

Looks like you guys had another great win, huh?

Yes and Dome was in the middle of it

Getting on base, driving in a run, scoring—also, he made at least one great diving catch early in the game.

But Jedmonds and Aramis were the Men of the Match.

Sound like that's the job as a lead-off hitter

His OBP at Wrigley is pretty high, right? Need to roll on road as well.

BTW Aramis should wear these authentic shirt from ARAMIS in Japan...

Yeah, we should send him some ARAMIS shirts to thank him for the last two games….

Anyone know the results of the poll on WGN?

regarding whether people watch the White Sox when the Cubs aren’t playing?

I missed it.

Don't remember the exact #s

but the majority said they didn’t watch Sox at all

We never give up -- Aramis Ramirez

by Emelie on Jun 21, 2008 4:11 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

i think combined it was around 60 percent

dont watch them or only when/if they play STL.

I think everyone understands it is mostly a sox thing to cheer against the other team in town. I could care less if the sox win or lose unless they play the cubs.

78%

but the question was would they ROOT for the Sox if they were not playing the Cubs
The Combined no and only if they played St. Louis was 78% ( 56% said never
22% said only against the Cardinals) I have no cell so I could not vote but I would
have been one of the 56%
