I was wondering if that crappy inning that Sean Marshall had against the Mariners on Saturday was enough to send him to Iowa and it seems as though Sweet Lou aint playing…Marshall will be making his season debut in Iowa, and I really like Sean but when you job is on the line… you have to step up, not give up 2 hits to your first 2 batters, especially when you are battling to be the left hander out of the pen until Scotty Eyre gets healthy…so Carmen Pignatiello get the nod.
Matt Murton is a big-time favorite of mine… I remember nicknaming him “Big Trailer Park” back in 2005, he would have got “Big Country” but that was already taken… lol …so me and my friends would be like, Big Trailer Park is coming up and heĀ is a favorite of ours and I guess a big favorite of the Cubs too as they are trying to shop him, plus he had an awesome spring… but the outfield is crowded and he can only play right or left he is somewhat of a defensive liability, but I love his bat and always seem to get some clutch hits.
