4/16 Cubs (Fat Glendon) @ Pirates (Snell) 12:35 pm CSN

[Andy]

Fat useless Glendon is the guy to deliver us the series win, against some guy I've never heard of named Snell.

 

I won't be around for this one as I have to do a radio broadcast of Ball State softball during the game, but I have a feeling I won't miss much.

Happy Easter!

our inconsistancy that we had last year came back today...after scoring 11 runs yesterday, we struggle to put together 1 run today. Pretty pathetic offensive showing.

 

I'm betting the offense is actually going to be on their game tomorrow but Rusch is going to have a terrible effort, again.

 

Let's take 2 out of 3...

[Transmogrified Tiger]

last game = not so awesome

[otis89]

Win, por favor.

 

Otis89, coming to you live from the Holiday Inn Express in Brighton, Michigan!

[Butterscup1679666578]

Runs plz.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

On the bright side, Ian Snell's ERA is a full run higher than Rusch's.

[Outshined_One]

Since when is Easter about doughnuts?

[Omar]

On the bright side, Ian Snell's ERA is a full run higher than Rusch's.

 

And judging from yestarday's game, Cubs will likely lower it.

[UMFan83]

I'm just saying:

 

Cubs don't come back in that Saturday Cardinals game, and their schedule has gone WLWLWLWLWL for the year.

Please dont give up a home run to Ian Snell

[soccer10k]

Runs plz.

 

Especially with Gopher Ball Glendon on the mound.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Mostly cloudy, 58°F, winds blowing out to RF at about 5 mph.

You know you're a terrible pitcher when....

 

Jack Wilson freaking owns you.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Losing sucks. Let's not do it again.

[Omar]

Are you saying Z is terrible? :evil:

Jack Wilson is 8 for 31 (.258/.324/.290/.614) against Z. So no, I'm not.

[C.C.]

Lets get a win today and the series. Losing two straight series to bad teams would not make me happy! :evil:

Snell put up some good numbers in the Minors (5 years).

 

ERA....IP.....H.....BB.....SO....WHIP

3.10..563...510...152...548....1.18

Which means he'll shut us down for 7 innings today...In all honesty this is a game we should win.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Ian Snell scouting report:

 

91-93 mph FB that can hit 96.

Sharp (plus) curveball - sometimes thought of as a slider.

Average, at best, changeup.

 

He's actually kind of small, about 5'11", 160 lbs.

[C.C.]

Well we can hit fastballs....We win this game 7-3. I haven't been right with a prediction yet this year. Hopefully this will be the first.

[CUBZ99]

You think Rusch will get out of the game only allowing 3 runs? :lol: I like your optimism.

Hey, he's got to have a good game sometime. Right? At least I'm hoping! PLEASE!
