April 13, 2008
Jason Marquis recovered from his illness well enough to hold the Phillies to two runs over 5.0 innings on Sunday. The right-hander made Cubs fans a little sick by adding in five walks (two intentional), hitting a batter, tossing a wild pitch, and throwing only 46 of his 86 pitches for strikes.
April 12, 2008
Jason Marquis is ready to start on Sunday, following his stint with a strep throat, according to the Chicago Sun-Times. He has recovered enough from the illness, and is good to go.
April 10, 2008
Cubs manager Lou Piniella is not only confusing the media, he is confusing his team. Jason Marquis has been scratched from his scheduled start Friday because of an illness after being named tonight's pitcher in place of the Rich Hill, according to the Chicago Tribune. Carlos Zambrano will pitch Friday and Ted Lilly Saturday, both on regular rest. Marquis will then throw Sunday's game in Philadelphia.
April 10, 2008
Jason Marquis will start over Rich Hill today, according to the Chicago Sun Times. Manager Piniella is going to swap them in the rotation the next two days, assuming Marquis is well enough to pitch following a stint with the flu. Marquis notably had two strong starts against Pittsburgh early last season, and Piniella wants to use him in the rubber match of the series today.
March 24, 2008
Lou Piniella announced Monday morning that Ryan Dempster and Jason Marquis will be in the starting rotation, leaving Jon Lieber to pitch out of the bullpen, this according to the Chicago Tribune. According to reports, the team has been shopping Marquis and this spot in the rotation could be for the purpose of showcasing him. Marquis now becomes an NL-only option in deep formats.
March 24, 2008
Sweet Lou almost always makes life in the clubhouse and dugout more interesting, for the fans, and his players. On Monday morning, the Cubs' skipper hinted that Marquis might not be the odd man out (of a starting spot in the rotation) after all. According to the Chicago Sun Times, the Cubs' starting rotation jobs that belonged to Ryan Dempster and Jon Lieber looked a little less absolute after Sunday's game. Jason Marquis looked strong again -- retiring 12-of-13 (including 11 straight). Piniella seemed to imply that Marquis could make the rotation and bump one of the two others (Dempster or Lieber). ''He hasn't done anything in the spring -- except get me mad once,'' Piniella said, laughing, ''to lead me to believe he shouldn't be in the rotation. We'll have something to say about that [today]." Piniella will make several announcements today, but the team has been shopping Marquis -- and if he stays in the rotation through today's announcement, it could be for the purpose of showcasing him.
March 23, 2008
Jason Marquis threw an average outing on Sunday allowing three runs in 4.1 innings. Marquis was around the plate striking out five and walking none. Marquis has expressed that he will not be happy in the bullpen this year, and while he has pitched well enough to earn a rotation spot with most teams, he looks like the out man out in Chicago. Currently the rotation for the Cubs looks like: 1) Carlos Zambrano 2) Ted Lilly 3) Ryan Dempster 4) Rich Hill 5) Jon Lieber.
March 6, 2008
Jason Marquis continues to battle for a starting spot in the Cubs rotation and on Thursday he allowed no runs in three innings in the Cubs' 2-1 loss to the A's. Marquis has allowed only one run this spring in five innings and he hasn't missed a regular season start due to injury in four years marking him as one of the best 5th starters in the game.
March 2, 2008
Lou Piniella and Jason Marquis met for about 10 minutes Sunday morning after Marquis said Saturday that he'd want to leave Chicago if he can't win a spot in the rotation and Piniella said, "Well, if that's the case, he can go somewhere else," according to MLB.com. "First of all, I'm going to apologize," Piniella said Sunday. "I didn't handle that situation well. I overreacted to it after the ballgame we didn't play particularly well in. I can understand why a player feels that way, and we'll leave it at that. The whole thing is I wasn't expecting it and it sort of surprised me. I should've handled it better and I apologize." Hmmm. Piniella overreacting and not handling things well in the papers? That doesn't sound like Lou. Apologies aside, Marquis is going to have to earn a spot in the rotation this spring by beating out Ryan Dempster, Jon Lieber and Sean Marshall.
March 2, 2008
Cubs manager Lou Piniella was not happay that Jason Marquis said if he doesn't earn the last spot in the team's rotation, he wants to ""take my services elsewhere," according to the Chicago Sun-Times. "Well, if that's the case, he can go somewhere else," said Piniella. "How's that?" Ryan Dempster and Jon Lieber are Marquis' primary competition, but he's not doing himself any favors by irritating the already irritable Piniella.
February 26, 2008
Jason Marquis is expected to fight it out with Jon Lieber for the last spot in the Cubs rotation. He could go to the bullpen if he doesn't win the spot, but he's not thinking about that right now. "We'll cross that road when we get there if that's the case," Marquis said in the Chicago Tribune. "I'm not thinking that way right now." Marquis got off to a good start last year but crumbled down the stretch. He shouldn't be considered outside of NL-only formats, and even then he's a risky play.
