4/29 Cubs (Rusch) vs Beermakers (Davis) Round II 1:20 WGN

[Flames24Rulz]

send down Rusch, promote Hill. Doesn't take a genius to figure that out.

[cheapseats]

Glendon Rusch: Curse of the Pig.

[Jon]

Keep up giving HRs, Rusch. That way, the top of the first will never end and it won't be official.

[Chocolate Milk]

A sparkling 7.52 ERA for Rusch.

[YearofDaCubs]

honestly, how do they keep sending him out there?

That's why I didnt want Neifi and Rusch resigned for this year. In my eyes they are worthless.

[Mizzou]

When somebody hits a no doubter into a 10-15 mph wind, it's generally not a good sign.

Are you serious? The wind is blowing IN? Two no doubt home runs with the wind blowing in? Get rid of Rusch.

[mhuber92211]

maybe this will work to Rusch's advantage. ALl the Brewers will come up and try to hit it farther then other one and most will K

[cheapseats]

we gave him TWO YEARS and A RAISE

 

Like Neifi, he saved us.

[oldstyle81]

If Wood is coming back after his rehab start, how many more starts would that mean Rusch gets, assuming he takes his place?

 

figure at least 3

[Rumbach]

Man, the crowd is brutal today. :lol:

[Andy]

Hall gets out because he was openly trying to swing for the fences, and who could blame him?

[UMFan83]

Is it possible to DFA him while the game is still going on?

 

Good thing we signed him to a 2 year contract?

Man, the crowd is brutal today. :lol:

I bet Rusch misses his days in Milwaukee... you know, where the fans are loyal.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

maybe this will work to Rusch's advantage. ALl the Brewers will come up and try to hit it farther then other one and most will K

 

Or maybe they'll follow the example from previous Rusch outings and pound the crap out of the ball.

[Flames24Rulz]

The way Davis has owned us throughout his career, I doubt we'll get 3 runs in this game.

 

Please pour.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 10-4 when they don't allow any runs is the first inning.... 3-4 when they do

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[cubweiser03]

Bad News: 3-0 is a helluva hole. Good News: Cubs have 9 innings to make that up. Bad News: Rusch will be pitching more innings.

[cheapseats]

Rusch is just trying to let them punch themselves out. You can only swing that hard so many times before becoming exhausted. By the 6th or 7th inning, those hitters will have nothing left.

I never thought I'd say it, but I'm sick of [expletive].

[Mizzou]

Speed factor. Gotta love it.

Bob said that the wind is blowing in from right field. Weeks' home run is one thing, but Fielder's went directly into the wind and Jacque didn't even move at all.

[Blueheart05]

Infield single for JP

[Fred Hornkohl]

Pierre grounded an IF single to shortstop

[Roast]

Yay slappy.
