Hey Bruce any news on Prior?

 

I'm not Bruce, but at last report he was playing catch while suffering through a horrible case of the sniffles and had a touch of a tummy ache!

He had Scott Eyre syndrome. He couldn't pitch b/c he might mess himself.

[treebird]

if i saw dusty on the street i would seriously consider challenging him to a fight

 

what a dumpy lineup

Hey Bruce any news on Prior?

 

I'm guessing he's got a hang nail on his pitching hand that's going to set him back another week.

[Wheelimus]

Nice way of telling Zambrano "better toss a shutout kid" :(

[bobbyd20]

With that lineup, the Cubs may set a major league record tonight by scoring a negative amount of runs.

OK, I firmly believe Dusty is actively trying to get fired. That is right up there with a late '90s Cub lineup.

 

Wholy Christ, I haven't missed listening to a game this year, but I don't know if I can handle this.

 

hey, it makes perfect to remove the two most productive hitters from a struggling lineup. these guys need at bats to get the skunk out of the boat.

Who is Rick Rubin?

 

:shock:

 

only the greatest record producer of the past 20 years

 

with russell simmons, original founder of def jam.

after leaving that he founded american records which was the home of:

all later johnny cash records

early saul williams

chino xl(lol)

etc

he produced 99 problems for jay-z

has worked with the mars volta iirc

as well as system of a down

did neil diamonds last record...

i know i am missing some things but

pretty well rounded.

I have a bad feeling the cubs record at petco is going to "regress to the mean" this weekend.

[DiamondMind]

I don't know if there are any people that don't know this or not - but for the Peoria area the Cubs are available on channel 44 (Insight Cable) tonight, and they carry a lot of the CSN+ games.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Pierre walked

[Omar]

PIERRE WALKS! CUBS WIN! CUBS WIN! CUBS WIN!

[Flames24Rulz]

uh wow, a leadoff walk.

[cheapseats]

Mike Piazza's not playing tonight to make the game more competitive.

[Omar]

Good job Bynum.

[Flames24Rulz]

Figures.

[gflore34]

Pierre with a lead off walk? Miracles do occur!!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Bynum grounded into a DP, 4-6-3, Pierre out at second

[cheapseats]

SPEED KILLS!

[stitchface]

thats why walks are worthless - they only lead to double plays.
