good work. Now maybe Lou won’t be afraid to play him again, so that Soto isn’t on a stretcher in October.
Tinker to Evers to Chance.
so i have a question....remember last time Z pitched
him and Geo got into it a little bit. do you think Hank will be his personal catcher now ? was that normal differences between catcher and pitcher? if this has been discussed previously, im sorry, i missed it
geo4mvpgeo4roygeo4everything
Has not been discussed that I know of
But I hope to hell that is not the deal. I think Soto was just ready for a rest.
dont think it has been discussed
and I doubt there is any animosity towards Soto from Zambrano’s perspective.
i hope not.....i just remembered during the ASG when Z threw that pitch to Manny Ramirez
and Soto said Z sometimes pisses him off….maybe the duration of the season is getting to them….you are right he was probably tired…he didnt get much rest
geo4mvpgeo4roygeo4everything
I think Z is jealous of Soto's lithe torso.

but it’s time the hall monitor got to see his pass, if you know what I’m saying.
’’If somebody had told me we were going to lose Soriano for eight weeks, lose [Carlos] Zambrano and Kerry Wood for a couple of weeks apiece, and then at the same time lose [Reed] Johnson, and then when we played the American League not have a DH [then-injured Daryle Ward], and be in first place by two games, I’d tell you we were pretty fortunate.’’ Lou Piniella (7/23/08)

Cubs
don’t like beating the Marlins.
Why is that?

Maybe it's the other way around,
the Marlins don’t like losing to the Cubs.
Hey, it's a new century!

Truthfully
I would’ve gone to Marmol there. I pray Howry proves me wrong.
Tinker to Evers to Chance.
I hear ya...
I had no idea, until I saw his name in one of Josh’s Minor League Recaps. :)
Howry is due for a good outing
like a broken watch that tells the correct time twice a day :-)
Keep the faith!
THIS IS OUR CENTURY!!
Hey!
A halfway decent lead in song by WGN Radio!
Yes I complain too much. When I don’t have TV I get cranky.

well look at that
Howry pitched to contact, got a fly out to shallow right, and no one advanced!

Maybe Howry is so tired from last time his arm angle will allow his pitches to move
in a non-linear fashion. Maybe he can hit that low, outside corner with his fastball. Maybe we will luck out?
cmon Bobby
throw strikes, trust your defense!
