Can't blame Lou
With the way the bullpen has been this year I don’t blame him for bringing in Marmol.
marmol is on pace for nearly 85 appearances
that’s obscene. develop trust in some other guy or his arm will fall off.

No, but at this point who's more reliable than Marmol?

for those of you in denial:
I have heard lots of away broadcasts of Cubs games this year on XM, and on many fly balls, these announcers are STUNNED at the late breaks that Soriano gets on most fly balls. I also know what I see and what Brenly has commented on concerning Fonzi.
He just doesn’t pick up the ball that well. Neither has Juan Pierre throughout his career and the guy is a career outfielder.
But hey, Cubs win!!
Good win.

but it does suck that when they come here and do it, we don’t have moderators on hand to get rid of them…
so for that reason the bottom line is that we’ll always lose the troll wars , so it’s probably best not to start them… that’s all I’m saying.. :)
