Dusty getting upset?

Seems Dusty is getting tired of hearing that Estes needs to be replaced, from Cubs.com...

"I don't care what people say, I'm the boss," Cubs manager Dusty Baker said.

Baker parallels that to fans demanding the backup quarterback replace the starter.

"Until they get him," Baker said. "Then when they get him, it is, 'Oh man, we've got to get ourselves another backup quarterback.' As far as taking him (Estes) out of the rotation, you've got to have somebody to replace him in the rotation."

Fans may clamor for Juan Cruz, who is 4-0 with a 2.03 ERA in eight starts since being sent to Triple-A Iowa, to take Estes' place.

"That's what people are talking about, Cruz," Baker said.

Baker pointed out that Cruz was 3-11 last season with the Cubs. He was 1-4 with a 5.68 ERA in 20 games, including two starts, and walked 19 in 38 innings this season with Chicago.

"If Cruz comes up and has trouble, they'll want me to replace him with somebody else," Baker said. "There's always going to be somebody."

He said you can't compare Cruz to a Mark Prior or Carlos Zambrano.

Ok 1st off Estes isnt our QB where the rest of the team is built around him. Estes is more like the kicker, easily replaceable, and no one gives a damn about. You dont do your job? I got about 50 other kids waiting to do your job. And i dont really care if you hit a 75 yarder 5 years ago in the SuperBowl to win the game. Thats not enough to warrant me to let you be my kicker, when your constantly kicking it out of bounds and letting the other team start at the 35 yeard line. OMG i spun off the reality ship............

The sportswriters know Estes sucks, the scouts know Estes sucks, I know Estes sucks, my blind grandmother knows Estes sucks, my dog even knows Estes sucks. But Baker is Shawn Estes only supporter. I am willing to bet his own team mates know Shawn Estes suck, maybe even to go as far saying his own pitching coach knows he sucks. The point is 30+ games left in the season, whats it gonna hurt to make a change? He hasnt found it after 130 games he isnt going to find it in the next 30 games. But wait maybe personal stats are why Dusty is doing this......

Baker said. "We've still got four guys in double-figures in victories and a potential for a fifth. We've got to find a way to make whatever we have better and more prosperous."

Potential for a fifth eh? That pretty much means Estes isnt getting replaced. Ahh but now i save the best for last....

Baker said a lot of outstanding pitchers, mentioning Curt Schilling, Nolan Ryan, Kevin Brown and Dave Stewart, struggled through .500 seasons before "getting it together."

Yeah i dont want to burst Dusty Bakers reality bubble but all of those guys had pretty dominating stuff. Something Estes has never had. To even think Estes is in that class of players is an insult.

I am now gonna take a page out of the Dusty Town handbook of dealing with prospects....

Hee Seop Choi was struggling, it seems the league has figured him out, so we are gonna send him to AAA to work on his swing. Besides you seen Randall Simon hit in BP? WOW.

Shawn Estes is struggling, it seems the league has figured him out, so we are gonna release him. Besides you seen Juan Cruz pitch in AAA? WOW.

Dusty Baker is a walking double standard. Sickens me to listen to his excuses and lies.
