Didn't people say the exact same thing about him last season?

 

He didn't have a 70:9 K/BB ratio last year.

Only guy close on that list is Hanson.

 

Chacin is no doubt close. He's flat dominated since reaching the bigs, all the while doing it in Coors. Most underrated/overlooked SP in the league.

Seriously Yankees, getting no hit thru 3 by Doug Davis? Thanks Ron Roenicke for waking up the Cubs. They win this series, and they'll come into the Cell with a lot more confidence than they had a week ago.

Jeff Marquez sighting!

Well Colon and Garcia are showing what they are all about.

I assume Doug Davis would be facing the Sox on Wednesday. We all know how well the Sox usually fare against "crafty" lefties.

Be nice if Viciedo will be in the lineup, and I think he just might be.

You gettin' some info, or just a gut?

I fully believe he will be starting at least 5 times a week by then.

No info, I just think a bad weekend by Pierre and it will be Viciedo time.

2 and a half months of garbage from Pierre and they haven't made a move. What will 1 weekend do to change that? He could go 0-for the weekend and still start each game next week.

I'm with fathom. I really think it's come to a head and I have a tiny bit more faith in this regime(KW) than most. I think he will make the decision and tell Ozzie to get the kid in there.

Yankees fans having a meltdown over getting shut down by Doug Davis.

Welcome to Wrigley Field with the wind blowing in

Reed Johnson just saved Marmol an XBH given up. Quade smart to not have Soriano out there right now in LF.

It's unreal the seasons that Johnson and Baker are having. I'm happy we're only pitching one lefty against them.

And then Marmol walks Martin.

 

Also, Johnson's hand is bloody now.

 

Johnson dive to catch the ball?

Yeah, it was a nice play.

 

This ump is terrible, for and against Marmol.

 

Gardner base hit, 2 on and 2 out, tying run at 1B. Dickerson up.

For three years, I've suggested Marmol gets a bigger plate than anyone. You usually don't see guys so wild get the benefit from the umps as much as he does.

Well in this case, it really worked both ways. He got a few marginal calls, but lost a couple too.

 

Game over, Cubs 3-1. This is apparently their World Series for this year.

 

 

Cardinals suck right now. Their middle infield is pathetic. Cubs made up four games in last five days

Don't worry, the Cubs face the red hot White Sox next, that will slow them down. And what the f*** happened to Colby Rasmus? He was my guy, but for the last month he's been playing all Gordon Beckham-y.
