Cubs vs Padres 6/3 Overflow #1
So here's an overflow thread because someone forgot to make one. Cubs need to score some more runs!! Your FanPost must be at least 75 words long. Right now it's only 19 words long. If you just have a quote, link, video or photo you'd like to share with the community, try creating a FanShot instead.

I know I'm in the minority here
But he’s only given up 3 hits through 4 innings. I know control has been a problem but this isn’t the worst start of all time or anything.
I’m cautiously optimistic he can get us to the 6th.
by dbaltman on Jun 3, 2008 10:58 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
the problem is
the damage has all been his own doing. walking a pitcher that can’t hit, throwing over with Lee not covering, throwing down the RF line. walks, walks, walks.
by Shanghai Badger on Jun 3, 2008 10:59 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
You're right
But he has limited that damage. I hate seeing all of these walks as much as anyone else. But he hasn’t been as bad as you would think just by reading this board.
by dbaltman on Jun 3, 2008 11:01 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
true -- a lot of that is pent uup frustration
from his other games
by Shanghai Badger on Jun 3, 2008 11:02 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
True
But he has consistently been like this… which is why we have the short patience
by GoCubbies34 on Jun 3, 2008 11:02 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
And I'm not
The world’s biggest Marquis apologist, but if he can get out of this inning, that will be 3 runs through 5. He’s grinding (sometimes with good results, sometimes not).
How many people on this board would have taken that at the start of this game?
by dbaltman on Jun 3, 2008 11:05 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
If he can do that then great...
He really needs to make it to 6 though. But he just can’t make it that far.
by GoCubbies34 on Jun 3, 2008 11:06 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
without context, probably
I’d take that. But I have to look at the game as a whole. He’s simply not pitching well.

Again, you are right
But only to a certain extent. Nobody expected him to give us 8 innings. Nobody honestly expected him to give us 8.
3 through 5 isn’t the end of the world. This is Marquis, not Z. At the end of the day, he didn’t have a great start, but it wasn’t a bad one. Again, it was a grind. Those happen.
Now lets bring in the ‘pen and close the door.

he walked FIVE guys. Including the pitcher.
three walks in one inning. I don’t see that as a good outing. If it was three through six, off a 2r HR and a RBI double, with one walk, that would be different.

well, gotta agree with dbalt on this one
3 runs in 5 innings is serviceable. not great, mind you. and I’m not convinced he’ll get thru the next inning
by Shanghai Badger on Jun 3, 2008 11:20 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Well
As of right now, he only gave up 3 through 5. I’m not trying to argue that its the best start of all time. but it puts us in the game.
Obviously the offense if very good right now, and 3 runs in the 6th clearly helps. However, Marquis has been grinding his way through this game. Never pretty, but thus far it has been effective.
by dbaltman on Jun 3, 2008 11:22 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs

This inning makes me nervous. I think he’s at the end of his rope right now.

If I had any faith in Marquis
I’d say send him out there again. This is going to be his last start for awhile anyway…

All, in all, not a terrible outing for Marquis
5 IP, 3 ER. He slogged through it but the numbers are what counts

It Makes You Wonder
On what basis did Jim Hendry sign Jason Marquis? If you saw him on TV, he stunk. If you looked at his stats, he stunk. There was nothing you could see in Jason Marquis that didn’t tell you he stunk. The only thing I can figure is that Marquis’ agent was the Amazing Kreskin.

Hendry was a hospital bed... all drugged up. That's my only explanation.
