Welcome to Our Hoosier Board!

Most of the posters here have been around for nearly a decade now. You'll find their knowledge and insight to be second to none. We have a really strong community and value everyone's opinions.

Feel free to jump into any thread and voice your opinion with conviction. We love heated debates and even some fanbase ribbing from time to time. We pride ourselves on the lack of moderation needed to make this board successful.

Please remember that we have been around many years and have an astute ability to tell the difference between an immature, childish, trash-talking troll and a passionate fan voicing his or her opinion. It is at the discretion of Jazen and myself whether any moderating actions should be taken at any given time. It's a very, very rare thing. In other words, no worries....you'll be fine!

Cheers,
sirbrianwilson

At least we got the W today. Our bullpen needs an overhaul.

Never understood why we didn't just put him in right every day and let him go. Yeah, he struggled against lefties, but he just needed time to figure it out IMO.
“He’s always been a guy — maybe to a fault — he would always try to do what I said. That seems like something simple in coaching, but those are the guys I hang my hat on. We’ve had some guys in our program, we had a couple guys that felt I had a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. And they were right — I do have a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. I like guys that go to class, that are academic All-Americans, that come early, that stay late, that love the game of basketball. I am biased towards those guys. And I’m biased towards Rob Hummel. But I’m also biased towards their habits, their work ethic, and how they carry themselves."

"I’d take him to the ends of the earth — I’d want him playing for me.” - Bo Ryan on Robbie Hummel

I think 31 at bats with 1 home run in Colorado is a little too early to say that...especially when he has a 10 to 1 strikeout to walk ratio.

Anyway, I do think the Cubs had too short of a leash with him.

Call at the plate was worse. DeJesus never even touched the plate.

Umpiring/officiating in sports is pretty poor, imo. At my sons high school double-header the other day, the home plate umpire for both games was in his 70's (2 different guys)....the kids had no idea where the strike zone was.....just like the umpires. These guys probably started umpiring before helmets were required....at some point its time to retire.

If the Cubs had a bullpen I think they would be above .500 right now. The starting pitching has been decent and Bryan Lahair is a beast. I'm beginning to think finishing above .500 is an achievable goal but I could just be dreaming.

Samardzija looked good last night, which is the first time I've seen him throw multiple innings at once. He got out of a few jams, but a very lively arm with good movement.

2 earned runs over his last 3 starts covering 21 1/3 innings with a sub 1 WHIP.

It would take a true Purdue fan to belittle those kind of numbers recently! :P
