    Game Thread 9/23/06

    I'll start just so there is one.

    Cubs

    Pierre CF
    Theriot 2B
    Ramirez 3B
    Murton LF
    Pagan RF
    Mabry 1B
    Blanco C
    Cedeno SS
    Zambrano P

    Reds
    Wise CF
    Hatte 1B
    EE 3B
    Dunn LF
    Valentin C
    Holly RF
    Phillips SS
    Olmedo 2B
    Lohse P

    Murton in LF batting 4th for CHI. See - Power guys in the OF are easy to find! Lets trade Dunn. (This sarcastic remark comes from listening to WLW announcer just say, and this is not a direct quote, "Trade Dunn. Even for less value. Productive OF is easy to fill." Tell it to the Cubs. Better be overwhelmed IMO. )

    We have a weather window....however, the field is a wreck right now.

    It looks like they will play, but the game will probably not start on time.

    The grounds crew better get working

    I honestly can't understand what Narron thinks they are gaining by playing dewayne wise and giving him 5 ab's.
    School's out. What did you expect?

    I guess you wouldn't call it a Wise decision?

    He said that? Come on, Cutman.

    If they're going to trade him, I want a good return

    No Denorfia? He has to either be hurt or essentially gone (trade already agreed to) because this is ridiculous. We play Wise and Holly over him... What does management know about him that we don't?
    Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.

    Maybe that righty hitters, at Deno's level, can't hit Zambrano.

    Pierre doubles. I probably won't do PBP all night.

    This is not a good way to start the game. Murton strikes out though.
