Thank you, Lou - you too, Rich Hill
I didn't get to see Friday's clunker of a game,but I did see Piniella's postgame tirade. Frankly, it's refreshing to see a manager get upset about a loss, especially the way it happened yesterday. It was tough to read the recap, and I imagine tougher to watch in person. As a Cub fan, it truly is great to see someone declare that things are going to change, and mean it. Too often, the managers became like Baker and just react like "well, what can you do?". Lou doesn't appear to be that guy though. Evidently the Cubs must have gotten the message based on today's score. Also, it sure is nice to have a pitcher not named Maddux who can pitch back to back games and complete 7 innings with pitch counts of 78 and 96 pitches. Why can't big Z do that, and why could Prior and Wood never learn how to do that? If they had, maybe they'd be pitching today instead of grabbing their shoulders in Arizona.

ya rich hill has been looking very good so far. lilly's stuff is looking good too. not really sure what's up with z. I haven't seen him have a meltdown like that in a while. The offense or lack there of makes me want to puke. soriano is looking like a joke to me too. I'm hoping Lou's comments he made the other day, will light a fire under them like Leyland's did in Detroit.
