The angel pagan is down. Neifi Perez is up. Wow. LOL

Its Jenks or Thornton time or let Bmac finish it. Dont mess around and expiriment with Politte.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 04:01 PM) I agree. I'm just saying that BA isn't like a "perfect" centerfielder, which he pretty much has to be as bad as he is at the plate. Pods is bad in left. There is no debating that. Our pitching staff outside of the very back end of our bullpen is filled with pitchers who are not strikeout pitchers. This is why you need good defense behind them. BA is hitting the ball now. He is not looking lost, I dont understand why you would want to put Mack who is best used as a role player and not a centerpiece.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 03:59 PM) I have a feeling we might be seeing Politte in the 9th Not in a cubs/sox game.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 03:59 PM) Eh. I definitely see the argument for both, but we have no leadoff hitter when BA is in Center and Mack is in left. Just really tough to have a .170 hitter in our lineup in the NL. Its also hard to watch Pods in LF and Mack in CF with the combined defense going. Mack is a corner OF, not a CF.

Turned on WGN for some funny Ronny Santo quotes... here is the first insight from Ronny Not only we need baserunners, we need someone to drive them in. Thanks for the comments Ronny.

Taz Profundo!!!

BTW Which Drunken always a cubs fan celebrity sang the Take me out to the ballgame.

Kong throws out Frenchie. LOL

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 03:39 PM) Cmon Neal, pitch over the little leaguer in left. Pods needs to learn how not to f*** up fielding. He is making Ozuna look more and more like a starter in LF. Get well soon Ozuna.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 03:37 PM) How does he hit us so well? When your OF are throwing themselves on the ground you get some good extra base hits. That should be a double, he almost turned that into a inside the parker.

Triple for Pierre. Nice start. f***!!!!

QUOTE(illinilaw08 @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 03:36 PM) So, if Jenks comes in today, will the Comcast gun have him hitting between 102-104? Sideways 8s.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 03:29 PM) LOL, I don't care about making fun of them but you could do better then that. I am short staffed here at work today, dont have the time to put the good effort in. I will do better next time. We need to expose their DH playing left field this series.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 03:28 PM) That you Jabroni? Its the other team and its the cubs, we can make fun of them you know.

QUOTE(tealeafreaderii @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 03:27 PM) hahahaha Dusty just put Neifi in... god he is retarded. His man love for Neifi is funny. Nefi should send some money back to Baker, because he would never ever be a major leaguer at this point in his career without Baker.

Poo on a stick has commenced for the flubs. Roberto Crapoa is in.

QUOTE(1549 @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 03:23 PM) Garland has never had a 'punch out' pitch...imagine if he did. Last year he threw his sinker inside a lot, and what he used on tough righties in clutch situations was a tight change he threw that bottomed out. Its not as effective this year because he has been behind a lot/doesnt throw in as much/ and he leaves it up. A good low change if you are throwing in is tough to lay off.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 03:23 PM) Too close right there to being a tie game. Throw a changeup. Need something offspeed Up and in Ks Cedeno.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 03:21 PM) This is just one of the many reasons why Jon Garland is so frustrating to watch, the inconsistency just insane. His stuff is there, if he only believed in himself to throw it for strikes he would be able to take off.

QUOTE(brijames @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 03:18 PM) I fing hate feeling like this but I just sense every thing going the way of the cubs this weekend. This is their whole season right here with this series. They have absolutely no pressure and if they do well they will hang their hats on it all year. If Droopy gets his extra 6 inches on the outside half yes it will be a tough day. If he gets a normal strikezone, then Thome bounces one off of one of the drunks heads in right.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 03:16 PM) Yeah, odd how bloop hits always find Garland and Garcia. I don't care how soft their hit, their hits. Garland needs to put people down when ahead 0-2. Such as here with Nevin. Your wish has been taken care of. POOF Nevin He Gawn.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jun 30, 2006 -> 03:13 PM) Just can't get away from them . Bloop streak. Its a lot easier to put wood on the ball when you are ahead of the pitcher. 3-1 and you are leading off, you are getting something to hit.

Yuck!!!!

Garland to 3-0 on Ramirez.
