Should be seeing Kerry Wood soon. (Or, hopefully not: maybe the Cubs are winning a blowout!)

First?

That Brian Roberts looks like a good player. I wonder if the Cubs could get him?

I added a "duck" in angle brackets

that didn’t show up in the post….

by ChipSet on Jun 24, 2008 8:48 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

No...

Save the prospects for something more important, such as a SP. Roberts is an all star 2B, but I don’t think Hendry is interested in replacing Derosa as of right now.

It's a shame

that there isn’t an ignore function.

field general, to be on target with his aerial assault, riddling the
defense by hitting his receivers with deadly accuracy in spite of the
blitz, even if he has to use the shotgun. With short bullet passes and
long bombs, he marches his troops into enemy territory, balancing this
aerial assault with a sustained ground attack that punches holes in
the forward wall of the enemy's defensive line.

Yeah, Lou is such

an idiot. I’m sure that you can do better.

"In football the object is for the quarterback, also known as the
field general, to be on target with his aerial assault, riddling the
defense by hitting his receivers with deadly accuracy in spite of the
blitz, even if he has to use the shotgun. With short bullet passes and
long bombs, he marches his troops into enemy territory, balancing this
aerial assault with a sustained ground attack that punches holes in
the forward wall of the enemy's defensive line.

He fouled off a few, but his swing is jacked.

He’s pulling off with his head, his hands are out of whack with his stride, and he’s letting go with his top hand too early. He has no shot a driving a pitch right now.

Marmol needs to stay toward the plate on his follow through

You see how he was able to get over much better balls when he wasn’t leaning left and ending on the left side of the mound.

I am sure the Pitching coaches identified that as part of his “sideways” part of the delivery.

terrible

three K’s in a row? What the hell were they swinging at?

they had no business not getting one across the plate..

i understand we maybe shouldn’t have won, but they had bases loaded no out and leave them out there. Sad way to end the game. . Oh well, get them tomorrow.

Should have made him pitch to all of the last 3...

Just got nervous and need to understand the previous pitches.

Nah -

Lots of “stones” on this team.

CEDENO sucks. he had a nice three weeks to start the year. I hope Lou finally realizes this. I hope we can trade this life-time utility dude for something.

Well put..

He isn’t a good player, maybe good at defense but he was hot earlier and that was all he had. I really hope he has some trade value

He can bring the "D"

but not consistently!

And, his baserunning – UGH!

Three Bad At-Bats

Horrible, disappointing end to the game. The key at-bat was Cedeno’s – he had no business swinging at those pitches around his shoulders. Really looked like a greenhorn rookie out there. And that seemed to put added pressure on Fukudome and Blanco, that they had to be the hero and make up for Ronnie’s poor at bat.

Agreed

100%

The kid has TOTALLY reverted back to the clueless hitter he has mostly been.

Cubs Success To Date

can be attributed to having good, patient at-bats and not getting themselves out. Really mystifying how they reverted to having nervous, “oh my god I hope I don’t K” swings out of Cedeno, Fukudome, and Blanco.

Nice battle but still painful

They all of a sudden started helping Sherrill out by swinging at bad pitches

Without a doubt, those were the three worst at-bats of the season, in a row...

Oh well, I guess you can’t win them all….it just seemed like it! Great winning streak, let’s show up focused and ready to play tomorrow and start a new streak.

Typical Cubs...

...bases loaded, and don’t cash in. A huge weakness this year!

Next Time

Maybe pull a page out of Don Zimmer’s book and send all three runners on a squeeze!

I am so sick

of waiting for Cedeno and Murton to be even decent players. PLEASE make them part of whatever
