Where'd you manage your big league ball?

Why would you do that? Anyone in their right mind would rather face Zimmerman over Harper.

And right after Zimmerman is Murphy who's hitting almost .400.

There is 2 outs and bases loaded. Why does that matter?

I understand not pitching to Harper in extras, but walking him 6 times in a game in May is a bitch move. Keyser has a point

Why let him beat you? What difference does the month make?

You play to win the game...

It seems that Maddon may have some cowardice running through his veins. Can't win with that I'm October.

You do your best to win the game. Walking Harper gives you a better chance to win the game.

Gary Jones has had some bad sends since he has been here.

That one was just terrible.

I hope you guys are trolling. Otherwise, you're basically advocating not trying to win, and I've heard you bitch about not trying to win for the last two months.

Cubs can't win if they pitch to Harper? It's just a bitch move. It's funny you guys would try to deny that.

Walk the guy 12 times. It's fuckin pussy ball. They're 23-6. Challenge him for god's sake.

What? It has worked every time. I'm not sure how trying to win is a "bitch move."

You play to win the game. Are you saying if they'd pitched to Harper they would've won by now?

You guys should be ripping Zimmerman for not coming thru a dozen times like you would be if it were Rizzo or Bryant .

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

Awful argument

He doesn't know what he's saying.

Tell me to stay out of Cub business and the very next line asking me a question about Cub business. I think you need a nap.

Cubs may have won by now, maybe not. Maybe Harper doesn't score that run and gets out and the Cub win 3-2. Either way, that's not the point. Walking a guy every time he is up is lame as hell, just like sending DeAndre Jordan to the FT line 24 times in one quarter is lame as hell. The "trying to win" shit is a dumb canard. There's many ways to win that don't involve dumb shit like that. Especially for the best baseball team of all time.

Even your king troll America agrees it was smart.

Also, the "best baseball team of all time" copout is one that Frank uses often when he's full of shit. Congratulations on joining that club.

Theyre 3-0 vs the Nationals and in the 13th inning of Game 4 by avoiding him all series. This argument is over.

JAVYYYYYYYY

The argument isn't about whether it's smart or not. If you're gonna do the lame roll your eyes thing at least read the post.

The Cubs might be the best baseball team of all time. They probably are through the first 30 games. That wasn't insincere. This team should be good enough to not have to resort to that shit. You don't see Golden State going hack a Jordan on the Clippers. They don't need to. The Rockets will though.
