While it's not surprising, it's quite disheartening that Hendry doesn't just cut Izzy or Jones already.

What? They just replayed a clip from Hendry this morning saying that Theriot wouldn't be sent down. Doesn't make any sense.

My guess is that a deal either fell through or got delayed.

He's a damn liar. This is pathetic. I was getting my hopes up with us getting rid of one of Jones or Izturis so much for that.

This is probably the case.

My God Hendry, admit your damn mistake and cut Jones or Izturis. You're gonna be gone soon anyway, so just eat the money.

Jesus, just cut Izturis or Jones already.

 

Not that Theriot was playing great or anything, but he brings more to the table than either of those two do...

I'd like Hendry to get a deal done already, but this isn't tragic.

It is when you consider that nobody else on the roster can play SS for more than an emergency fill-in role... which means it's going to be all Izturis all the time.

Sucks for Ryan, but Fontenot's emergence has made him more expendable.

 

NO HE HASN'T!!! If this is true, we have to see Izturis EVERYDAY at Short! Neither Fontenot nor DeRosa can play SS in the Major Leagues, well neither can Izturis apparently. This is would be a god awful resolution to the problem that we have. Why does Hendry have to torment us??? This will be the last straw, I will no longer defend Hendry in anyway, shape, or form if this is what he does.

Fontenot has been taking grounders at short, apparently. Still, your sentiments are correct.

Stupid move. Just recently Theriot executed the suicide squeeze to give us the winning run and just yesterday the guy went 2/3 with 2R and a SB when Lou replaced the incompetent Izturis with him. Hendry irritates me.

Dare I compare the passion for Theriot with some of the Cubs fanbase to the popularity of Eckstein to some Cardinal fans?

Theriot had been bringing less to the table than Izturis recently. As long as this doesn't mean Izturis the starting SS for the rest of the season, I can't complain about the move. Jim is trying to get something for Jones. If they are authorized to pay his salary when he leaves, it could help them actually get something back. A self imposed deadline of today for a deal doesn't help the team at all.

I'm waiting for another one of those Score updates because I'm beginning to wonder if I heard right since no one else has. Edited by CaliforniaRaisin

Agree 100% - not tragic.

 

It is, however, typical of the worst organization in professional sports.
