I will stab myself in the face with a rusty screwdriver if any one of these whore pitchers can ever get a 1-2-3 inning.

This Renteria isn't exactly the brightest bulb on the tree, is he? I think he was leaving Strop in there for an inning no matter what he did out there.

I wonder if beckdawg still wants to defend these silly cunts. They can't close out the close games. Haha

Well, so far, Olt does nothing but an occasional HR here or there and he hasn't even done that in like 3 months.

Bryant just hit no.21 off the scoreboard, I think its time

At this point, it'd be fun to get Bryant up and see what he can do.

Good start by Arrieta.... 6 strong innings..
is he on a pitch count or are they just not allowing him to go pass 6 inning...

I'm not certain about the pitch count but they've pretty routinely removed guys at around 100 pitches. He had thrown 93.

Sure. I'll have a go at it. It's like I said the last time. 2 runs is not a safe lead. This is especially true when you consider the bullpen over the past week has been over worked. Out of I want to say the last 7 starts, only two guys have gone more than 6 innings and that was Hammel and Shark and the start prior to yesterday Shark only went like 3 innings. How many runs has the bullpen given up over that time frame? Well let's look

Today: 4 ER in 3 innings
Yesterday: 0 ER in 2 innings
6-6: 3 ER in 6 innings
6-5: 2 ER in 4 innings
6-4: 0 ER in 4 innings
6-3: 0 ER in 4 1/3 innings
6-2: 1 ER in 5 innings

Total: 10 ER in 28 1/3 or a 3.17 ERA over that time frame which includes the two blown saves you want to complain about. If you want to see a bad bullpen, go look at last year's team. They had a 4.04 ERA as a team.

Thanks. Guess he just gonna be that typical 5th starter that you hope to get 6 innings out of him, cause he throws alot of pitches

The Cubs bullpen has blown 13 games this season. How many are on Renteria for mis-managing it?

Read a stat that shows plus minus losses for coaches. Renteria was a -5. Im guessing that has increased.
