2. He downplayed his career stats against lefties, saying that No lefties do well against Willis.
Jim's exact quote:
What lefties are you talking about?
Now we're going to have to look up every lefty starter Branyan didn't face.

That’s the only thing Chicago’s good for: to tell people where Wisconsin is.

Hampton in the last series, Willis (again) in the series before that, and Al Leiter in New York, but I believe the New York series was when Branyan had JUST gotten the cortisone shot.

 

But still, that's plenty of lefty starters in a short span that he's been benched against.

 

Powell, for shame.

Powell is really getting on Grieve's ass lately.

 

I know Grieve says he cares, and I believe him, and I don't think a guys laid back demeanor means he doesn't care. But when you strike out, and then the ball bounces away, and you just stand there and wait for the catcher to tag you out, you shouldn't question why people say you're not giving enough effort, or say that you act like you don't really care.

Sometimes Grieve takes way too many pitches (not a bad thing, but as has been said, taking the third strike everytime up at bat isn't a great thing) and does show an occassional lack of hustle.

 

And the bullpen once again starts to collapse. Please don't blow it for Doug.

Wow! Yost going to Kolb in a crucial situation that's not the 9th! That and moving Overbay up to 3rd in the order and it's like someone taught Ned how to manage since yesterday!

 

Let's hope this works out... go get 'em Danny!
