Lineup
Gathright, CF Miles, SS Fukudome, RF Lee, 1B Hoffpauir, LF Fontenot, 3B Scales, 2B Hill, C Marshall, P [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif[/img] Lou says Marmol and Gregg both get the day off too.

[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img] Guess Lou doesn't think we've got much of a shot against Lincecum.
The thing you need to remember is that all Cardinals fans and all White Sox fans are very bad people. It's a fact that has been scientifically proven beyond a shadow of a doubt. Being a Cubs fan is the only path to rightousness and piousness. Cardinal and White Sox fans exist to be the dark, diabolical forces that oppose us. They are the yin to our yang, the Joker to our Batman, the demon to our angel, the insurgence to our freedom, the oil to our water, the club to our baby seal. Their happiness occurs only in direct conflict with everything that is pure and good in this world.

What the hell? Lincecum is a great pitcher and all, but damn. Throwing in the towel and conceding the game is the answer here?

So when does the regular season start?

I don't have a problem with it. We are in the middle of 20 games in a row. Today is a get away day. Ramirez is just coming off a injury and with Bradley getting hit by a pitch and as injury prone as he is you might as well sit him too. Theriot has not had a day off this season. Gathwright has not started a game yet this season.

I don't have any problem whatsoever with resting guys. I just think it's weird that nearly the entire starting lineup is sitting. 5 of the 8 spots that aren't the SP are bench players.

Baseball is weird, though. This lineup could end up tearing Lincecum a new one...

Exactly. More so than any other sport, anything can happen on a given day. That's why I don't really have a problem with it.

Well, that might be the game with this lineup and Lincecum on the mound.
05-05-2009, 02:31 PM
Guess I should turnt his game on...14 pitches in and it's 3-0? Great.
05-05-2009, 02:33 PM
Oh well, wrote this one off as a loss last week. Just glad we won 4 in a row coming into it.

I'm pretty sure Scales is 0-0 in his career if that helps. And I don't mind resting players, but the whole team on the same day? If I was at this game I would pissed. You can only hope the Cubs score early to make this thing a game before he sets in. |
