amazing...

[Flames24Rulz]

another ND for Z. I hate our offense with a passion.

[BigbadB]

Poor Z won't get the decision.

 

if they score here he would ...

 

Wouldn't whoever pitches the 8th get the win?

 

No. Not that it matters now. Zambrano is the pitcher of record until someone else actually throws a pitch.

[abuck1220]

tradebacks on pierre, please.

OMG NOT PIERRE WITH THE BASES LOADED

 

grounding out to second is in the near future for the Cubs.

You called it.

 

I rule.

 

Don't worry my dudes. Aramis will save us next inning.

[YearofDaCubs]

Good thing we gave Hendry that much deserved extension. :roll:

[stitchface]

maybe Z needed a little dead arm.

[ManCrushOnNomar]

eye hardt teh cobs

[wastra]

Hey...an unintentional swinging bunt from Pierre.

 

What are the chances. :roll:

Too late. Zambrano wants to be traded to a team that can score runs.

[Shavo]

I wasn't aware Hendry plays CF.

Thanks for the clarification.

[Rob]

On the plus side of things, we successfully doubled the amount of hits we've had in this game, and increased our walks by 200%

[Fred Hornkohl]

Eyre in to pitch for the CUBS

[TruffleShuffle]

Hey, ground out to second by Pierre.... who saw that coming??? Oh that's right, everyone.

[YearofDaCubs]

Good thing we gave Hendry that much deserved extension. :roll:

 

I wasn't aware Hendry plays CF.

He doesn't but he is the one that put this pathetic team together.

Actually, I wasn't sure it'd get past the pitcher.

I somehow doubt that.

 

Everyone on the Cubs (except, ironically, Zambrano) is in a super-uber-mega funk.

 

Even if they all had career years, we would only be putting up average run totals.

[frostwyrm]

Very dumb managing by the Padres. Intentionally walking Neifi to get to the pitcher made no sense when Z had thrown 107 and was sure to be pulled for a PH. An RHP vs. Neifi was the best situation the Padres could have hoped for.

[Laura]

PH Murton, move Bynum to CF.

 

Yeah, too late.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Cameron grounded out to short, 6-3

[Brian]

giles is going to hit a homer to the deepest part of the park here...

Pathetic? There's nearly a potential all-star at every position. It's the Lee injury that's really killing us.

 

Dusty. 'nuff said.
