[CubfaninCA]

the hitting shows up and the pitching doesn't. when it rains it pours...... :(

[Schwarber Fan]

So... Guzman sucks.

 

Novoa's in now... he Sox too

[Flames24Rulz]

Novoa is brutal.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Johnson walked, Greene to third, Gonzalez to second

[Schwarber Fan]

A walk?! Never!

[Shilzzz]

has novoa even gotten an out yet? :shock: :x :cry:

[Schwarber Fan]

I'm calling it.... Woody Williams GS

[Mizzou]

Why even bring Novoa in here? Shouldn't you use your long reliever (Rusch) in this situation?

[Mizzou]

has novoa even gotten an out yet? :shock: :x :cry:

Nope. Two walks and two hits.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 9-3 when they allow fewer than 4 walks.... 5-12 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[fiver]

Now I remember why I ordered MLBTV on a monthly basis instead of paying for the whole season upfront.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Jones popped out to shortstop

[NorthsideAvenger]

It has to be said.....Do the Cubs even care at this point?

 

I know what they say publicly, but the proof is in the pudding. This team COULD ABSOLUTELY not care how bad their performance is. And the worst of it all is that I read (in yesterday Suntimes) is that the Cubs are WAITING FOR THE RIGHT TIME to offer/sign Baker to an extension. This org...does not get "it."
