I like how EOF is going straight at these guys. With a 5 run lead, make them put the ball in play. Tommy was getting way too cute there in those last two innings of his.
makes ya wonder how they could lose two to the Cubbies…but this is baseball and the improbable happens all the time.
the impossible a little less often…
Martinez did some fine work out of the bullpen in 2011 and he was quite serviceable out of the pen in 2010 with the exception of a couple rough outings.

Don’t even mention that crap, I’m still pissed by that!
Yeah, I just checked and I guess it was more the carryover from 2010 – where he actually was not nearly as effective and had a pretty high ERA – that was influencing my memory. But still, he is a full run lower in his ERA this year over last.
Just like the way Bobby Cox was in love with Greg Norton, Fredi G has a thing for Jack Wilson.
Mark my words, there is going to come a key game this season when he puts Wilson in there and he blows the game. Book it.
