Both those outs were hit pretty hard on Montero, only got the 1st out due to defensive placement.

And Detroit has hit 6 HRs off the Flubbies now, only in the 5th inning....go get em Dusty!!

Cubs and Red pitchers trying to see who can outdo each other today??

Hahahahahaha....JD!

Thome 69 K's in 224 ABs.. Theres your moment of pessimism for this game.

105 pitches through 8 IP, 68 for strikes...thats damn impressive. Go get em in the 9th, Jon!!

2006 Cubs = 2004 ChiSox??? Kings of the solo homeruns

In case I haven't mentioned it lately... I love this team!!

No question, this is Garlands game to finish and CGSO if he wants it....Finish it out Jonny G and get it done!

Oh My f***ing God Garland homers...wtf 5-0

Mack with a 4 for 4 day!! And Mark Prior looks like a messiah to me!

QUOTE(Aderal @ Jun 18, 2006 -> 03:18 PM) whatd he do? Ranged to his left, close to the 2nd base bag, slid and skidded stopped, got up and threw Kearns out.

93 pitches for Garland through 7, and 62 of those for strikes....fantastic back to back starts for Jon! And boy, the Cubs are some kind of suck...

And thats why Uribe is at SS everyday.

Just got in from lunch. Has Garland looked as good as his line shows? Thats pretty impressive work on this Reds lineup so far.

QUOTE(tealeafreaderii @ Jun 18, 2006 -> 12:23 PM) A sunday line up without Pablo??? A little piece of me just died. Pablo must be now classified as a 'tweener!! Too good for Sunday lineup duty, not quite good enough for a starting position!! A man without a role!

:headshake Sunday lineup lovers, rejoice!!

I don't think any of us would rather have Mack instead of BA in CF, but Oz was trying to play National League baseball, out-thinking himself. He probably in hindsight, shoulda realized a 3 run lead in theory SHOULD be safe, and you don't switch, and you DO leave your best defensive team on the field. At least it didn't cost us.

Pablo cant play D???

Credit AJ for a GREAT slide there...I AJ

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Jun 17, 2006 -> 08:48 PM) So, in Ozzie's eyes, is Thornton now the lefty setup man? He seems to get more opportunities in the late innings than Cotts recently. That could just be my perception, though. Good problem to have right now, as both of our lefty relievers are bringing it well atm.

Thats a strike everyday of the week ump..c'mon.. Academic now, but that was a K

Thats not so good in the OF..

DONT throw straight fastballs to Dunn PLEASE Matt.

Thorntons fastball is so sexy....
