TCR: No Good Will Come of This

Gameday Open Thread / Rockies @ Cubs

Submitted by Cubnut on Thu, 03/20/2008 - 11:38am

The Rockies visit HoHoKam this afternoon at 3:05 Chicago time. It's Rich "89.4 MPH" Hill vs. Franklin Morales.

And Lou Piniella confirms: when he said he'd have a rotation announcement by Friday, he meant it, dammit.

"Cesar Izturis went 0-for-3 and committed an error Thursday against the Marlins. Izturis is batting .163 and he's up to seven errors in the equivalent of about 12 full games at shortstop." (Rotoworld)

Glad he's not in the picture anymore.

And yet, he might go north with the Cards over Brendan Ryan. Strange world, this.

Is Hill working on his Intentional Walks?

#7 Re: Gameday Open Thread / Rockies @ Cubs

Submitted by Jace on Thu, 03/20/2008 - 2:35pm.

So, what is he up to, like 50 pitches already?

Is mlb.com correct? Josh Kroeger really came in and finished the inning?

#16 Re: Gameday Open Thread / Rockies @ Cubs

Submitted by Jace on Thu, 03/20/2008 - 2:53pm.

mlb.com is saying that the recently demoted OF Josh Kroeger came in to relieve Hill in the 2nd, and got the next two hitters out... I don't believe that... Anyone know what really happened?

#17 Back to back doubles by Murton and DeRosa

puts the Cubs on the board after Aramis and KFuk struck out to start the bottom of the second.

They are show-casing Kroeger as a long releiver for the Orioles scouts.

#57 Admin note for Trans

Submitted by Rob G. on Fri, 03/21/2008 - 12:18am.

the rest of you can ignore this...

but if you're logged into your normal admin account and want to post a link in the comments, I suggest going to "input format" below the edit windown and switching to "filtered html". It'll automatically hyperlink and truncate it for you. This only applies to admins though.

Thanks.  I sent it from my office computer, which evidently had different settings on it from my home pc, I don't konw why.

A question:  I can't get the switch to stick.  Meaning, I
click on Filtered, and A. nothing changes and B. for my next comment,
it goes back to the rich-text editing default....
