Any chance we could talk the Cards into spotting us a few runs tomorrow

We keep it close and then bam

Huh ?
Pitching has been pretty decent especially the starting pitching. Hitting died a few games ago. This is not the worst thing.
Hitters wake up, bad pitching is forever.

Dude was okay. Not great, not terrible.
I'd agree with that
Not awful, not great. But a lot of people wanted him shipped out, too.
by Not Bruce Froemming on Apr 25, 2009 5:34 PM CDT up reply actions
Nope
Both are doing very well this season Wuertz was so so but so so looks good now, Eyre was excellent then he slumped and ended up in the dog house while Howry continued to give up gopher balls. Lou is dreadful at managing pitchers, some times he lucks out
and it sort of takes care of itself but this year it is blowing up. We released a guy who was given no chance and still never gave up a run and got to eat 4 million. The only lefty we have can’t throw a strike over the plate.

Putting Soriano in the #3 spot was a mistake..
He was hitting well and was reasonably patient for his standards and then Lou messes with the lead off spot.
Moving Lee down was the right move. Hell, give Lee some rest and put Hoff at 1B. Lee is clueless right now.
Soriano needs to go back

I am not ledge jumping I am simply asking a question. (OK NBF?)
If the Cubs are .500 or less at the break, would the Cubs take the ax to Lou? Would it matter where we were in the pennant race, or with 140 million spent, would it matter?
"How's your mother?"

Not if it has to due with injuries...or players having down years...

And the answer is no. No way Lou gets fired, probably ever.

patton is prime example why you don't keep a player simply based on spring training

As seeing as the Cubs are going to lose today.
So far this year 8-8. Last year 11-5. After 16 games of course.
So this means ...
What? Granted, I’d rather be 11-5, but …
How many of those games were against the Pirates?
by Not Bruce Froemming on Apr 25, 2009 6:02 PM CDT up reply actions
Actually, they were 10-6
with four games against the Pirates.

Wouldn't this game have sucked even more
if Kosuke was annihilated in the chin when he was trying to bunt?
