[Mr. Cub]

I like DeJesus!

 

[dabynsky]

DeJesus is a nice player, and in the NL Central he is passable in CF. Really couldn't ask more from him to be honest.

Yeah, he's not like an All-Star or anything, but I think he is a good hitter and above average defender for us.

No clearly he isn't an impact guy, but I would gladly take a lineup of 9 DeJesus's right now.

 

[dabynsky]

It is amazing this team's ability to hit into ground into double plays with as few guys as they put on base.

 

[dabynsky]

TWood is dealing tonight so far. Hopefully he can go nine.

 

[dabynsky]

It is stunning this team's ability to GIDP.

I think I just threw up in my mouth reading this.

But that shows clearly how bad and poorly constructed this team is.

It was not meant as a compliment towards the lineup.

It's the Cubs, what do you expect?

 

[dabynsky]

It's the Cubs, what do you expect?

This is a trend continued from last year where this team hits into GIDP at an alarmingly high rate.

Thanks Pops .

Oh I know.

I was agreeing with you by saying how it shows how bad this team really is.

DeJesus should be a 4th OF

He is better than a true 4th OF, but he is the weakest starting OF in a good lineup.

 

[dabynsky]

And the lead is cut in half. Wonder who gets the ball in the ninth if there is a lead. I am guessing Marmol.

 

[Mr. Cub]

Fuck you in the mouth, Bruce!

I think they should let a fan pitch in the 9th.

Well, for what it's worth, Marmol has looked pretty good his last few outings.
