Looking good

by plenz on Jun 22, 2008 9:37 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
the guy isnt a good defensive shortstop
but he’s also not built to be a shortstop…..all the guy is doing is playing out of position to help this team in a spot they needed to be filled. not to mention he has been very important to the lineup. if he’s the second basemen for this team people would probably be calling him an all-star
by cubsmania on Jun 22, 2008 9:37 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Those numbers are a bit off...
...he was quoting someone else who did an off-the-cuff estimate based on something I wrote a few weeks back. I think 18 runs is a bit high, but he’s on pace for 12-13 runs below the average shortstop on defense. He’s also – on the season so far – a below-average hitter for a shortstop, so long as you insist on using a measure more robust than batting average.
by cwyers on Jun 22, 2008 9:46 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Did you even bother reading it?
I have my quibbles with some of it, but there are these things called “facts” in there – Theriot’s hitting has declined since April, and his defense has been bad all season.
Ryan Theriot so far in June: .286/.333/.314

while theriots numbers in june arent what he was doing in april and may
they still arent terrible….not like he has fallen off the table…and at the same time cedeno has started to fall off the table with his hitting.

Off the cuff...
...let’s presume that Theriot and Cedeno have hit to their true talent level so far this season, which would make Cedeno (roughly) 11 runs worse than Theriot on offense. [Keep in mind I’m eyeballing this off their Baseball-Reference pages.]
In that event, if Theriot is a 13 run defensive liability, and Cedeno is an average shortstop (and I think that he is), he’s a better shortstop.
If not, the Cubs should do what they did when CF became a hole, and go outside the organization for help. Really, this isn’t rocket science.
by cwyers on Jun 22, 2008 9:55 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
is cedeno average at ss?
his fielding percentage is worse than theriot….are u basing that he’s an average ss because of his range? if range is the key factor in who should play ss freddy bynum probably has good range…he’s available.

Ozzie's Press Conference Highlights
Just watched Ozzie’s postgame comments. He was surprisingly calm and resigned about the game and the series. Not surprisingly, he started off with the usual “A loss is a loss, no matter who you play against.” Yeah, right. I’m sure Kenny Williams concurs.
That aside, he was markedly gracious in defeat. Saying things like, “They played better than we did,” and “They outperformed us.”
When asked about Vazquez’s performance, he said, “[It was] not good. [He was in] trouble from the beginning of the game [and] was off most of the time.” At one point Ozzie apparently joked that, “We might send Vazquez down and bring Louiza (sp?) back.”
About Dempster, he had a variety of compliments, including “He threw the big pitch when he had to,” and “He threw the ball unbelievable good.”
When asked whether he was going to change anything when the Cubs visit the Cell next weekend, Ozzie said simply, “No, we just have to play better, pitch better.”
Finally, several times during the interview he said about the Cubs, “That’s why they’re in first place.”
Indeed, Ozzie. Indeed.

Drugged
Maybe someone drugged him.
The weird thing is Ozzie was my favorite player on the Sox for a long time.
Go Cubs

Yeah, I'm guessing he was...
...holding in his rage for use against Kenny Williams. His GM’s idiotic comments may well have lit a fire under this Cubs team ass. Then again, Ozzie wasn’t exactly at the top of his game during the series either.

The Sox shouting their mouths and the Cubs sweep
My Mom has a saying “There’s well said and there’s well done”
Meaning you can talk a great game but the only thing that counts is if you produce or play a great game.
Go Cubs

Comments from Sox Fans (stolen from fellow Cubs fan Facebook page)
“um the cubs didn’t get the 10th in a row, and the sox came back with 7 the next week. why don’t ya don’t ya go jerk soriano off…i think he could use a n extra hand. HA!”
“Never said the cubs weren’t the best team in baseball. As of right now ya gotta say that. But the sox ARE in a better spot. And like I said the cubs are SUPPOSED 2 be where they’re at. I’m not sayin anymore till the series”
“I know you like wrapping your mouth around Mariotti’s balls all the time, but his article today was undeniably trash. Even for someone who likes his work such as yourself, I thought you would still know better…
P.S. – Ozzie blew it today by going to Dotel in the 7th. Danks was pitching fantastic.”
“I probably would have made that bet seeing as how I’m so used to takin ur money, however I’m reading your post after the sox handed you guys a win. Ozzie got out-managed once again. But bottom line..anytime you get lead-hits in three innings (two of them doubles) ya simply don’t deserve to win the ballgame. Danks should have never been taken out with uribe pinch hitting. Fuckin 1 earned run, 5 scattered hits, and 3 clutch double play ground balls…he was fuckin rollin but the cubs one fair n square. what can I say?”
Lone Cubs Fan post: “I love how all these sox fans hate on the cubs so much that they actually get mad over it!! all i can say is lets go white sox all the way to the seris and we’ll see ya there!!!”
Go All In and Enjoy The Ride.
