3/18 ST Cubs(Rusch) @ White Sox (Vasquez) 2 PM WGN

[YearofDaCubs]

Borchard: One way ticket to AAA

I think he's out of options.

[CubinNY]

And Marquis swings at the first pitch. WTG! Lucky for him the wind was swirling.

 

What's he hitting this spring?

 

M Grissom .259 12 27

[baseball7897]

Nice job Blanco. Ahead 3-0 and still strikeout. Man on third 1 out and the Cubs dont score.

[Fred Hornkohl]

[BWcubs21]

[YearofDaCubs]

I have to say that I can't stand listening to Hawk. Very annoying.

[Vinestal]

He Gone!

hahahahaha

Im glad I didnt have to hear that

[baseball7897]

So now that Rusch is out of the rotation, who is in?

[Fred Hornkohl]

So now that Rusch is out of the rotation, who is in?

 

Ryu

[baseball7897]

Wow, Ryu just threw a filthy change-up, he looks good. Heard on the radio he led the league in innings at AA.

[CubinNY]

Very athletic play there by Jer.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

So now that Rusch is out of the rotation, who is in?

 

He's our #2 and far from being run out of the rotation.

[Vinestal]

So now that Rusch is out of the rotation, who is in?

He probably just has a bruise, sadly he'll probably be making his next start. Pure speculation on my part. Ryu does look good.

[Vinestal]

hmm not so good against Thome but I guess I can understand that. Maybe he should have walked him.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

come on blue. i know it's thome vs. a AA pitcher, but wow.

 

and it costs us a run. sweet.

[BWcubs21]

6-1

Thome almost got it

[Vinestal]

well .... so much for looking good.

[BWcubs21]

Well Ryu had a good inning anyways. More than you can say for Rusch.

[Fred Hornkohl]
