4/11, Cubs/Reds, Cy Rusch/Arroyo, CSN 1:20

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Slap Nasty with an 0 fer

 

OBP down to .259.

[Andy]

ARam needs to get going.

He was hitting something like .230 after April last year and ended up hitting above .300. I'll power through this if he keeps his streak of red-hot summers going.

[Butterscup1679666578]

ew. .174.

[cubfan75]

Cubs are 4-0. Rusch is 0-2. This is how I view the season to date.

 

Very well put, and a great perspective on what we hav e seen so far.

[cubfan75]

I traded Utley for Aram because Chipper got hurt. I hope he turns it on soon.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

the fury in to play 3B

[da bears]

Cubs really need to take the next two games in this series. I just don't like them sweeping the Cardinals and then losing to the Reds.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Lopez struck out swinging

but i think he's still fast.

How desperate must that guy have been for 2B production???

[Fred Hornkohl]

Griffey grounded out to second, 4-3

[cubfan75]

Pat going on to remind us of the Yanks coming back to win, like we need more bad news today.

[Schwarber Fan]

Here we go guys.... i'm calling it...... 9 run 9th inning capped by barrett's 2nd straight GS

[otis89]

If there's one positive out of this, it's nice to see Williams not sucking.

He had a good season last year, but I had Soriano whom has started off well and no other 3rd baseman. Not sure who is other option was at 2nd.

[CubinNY]

Of course I have Dunn on my fantasy team

 

I am both :x :x and somewhat :) but mostly :cry: at Glendon Rusch's performance.

I agree, let the Reds tee off on Rusch, Maddux vs. Claussen and Zambrano vs. Milton the next two, Cubs should have a pretty good chance to win the Series.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Hey.... the wind is still blowing out.... this is still the Reds bullpen..... how 'bout the 9th inning rally of the century ????

[sethuel1]

I have Freel and ARam on my fantasy team :pukel:

[Andy]

If there's one positive out of this, it's nice to see Williams not sucking.

Especially since he'll be starting for Rusch next game.

speed kills.

[Flames24Rulz]

HR Barrett! 9-2, only down by a TD and an extra point.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Barrett homered to left field

[Derwood]

gamecast is stuck for me
