5/8 Cubs (Maddux) @ Padres (Young) 9:05pm CSN/XM 188

Busty tells his hitters to swing early in the count, instead off being patient at the plate and taking walks. Most first pitches are pitchers pitches.

[Bull]

Wow...Pierre's avg is down to .238. We'd have been better off keeping Nolasco, Mitre, and Pinto and letting Patterson keep leading off.

Who would of thought that if we still had Patterson he would be our #2 outfielder?

Don't talk like that. You're depressing me.

your not depressed already?

I haven't been watching the last week or so.

In murton's AB? Grounded out on the first pitch...thus the Sarge and Clines reference

 

If they listened to Sarge, they'd be quite a bit better off, .364 lifetime OBP (including .410 in '84). I'm thinking the Sarge knows the value of working the pitcher and taking a few pitches.

ground out to 2nd?

Im hoping on the Bob Brenly bandwagon. Who is with me?

 

If you're trying to get him to do color for another team, then count me in.

 

Not a Brenly fan? I enjoy him.

 

No, not at all. I'm sure he is a nice guy, but his color analysis has slowly grown to irritate me. His communication of the obvious is mind numbing, IMO.

 

He'd be a perfect Cubs manager then. They need the mind numbingly obvious explained to them in detail.

I think Santo just said S### under his breath after Hairston popped out

 

I bet he has a bottle of Jack Daniels sitting next to him.

Badger to Satan: I WILL SELL MY SOUL FOR RUNS.

 

Satan to Badger: Here, eat these 5 barrels of beans. Now, about that soul...

Pierre grounds out to Gonzalez.

He does say Sheeesh alot, i'm pretty sure that is what he said after Hairston's ab.

[Bull]

[badger1679666666]

ground out to 2nd?

 

damn close.

[Flames24Rulz]

Cedeno also 1st pitch swinging and he fouls out to Gonzalez.

 

AWFUL.

[BigbadB]

Pierre grounds out to Gonzalez.

 

Admit it. You had "Pierre grounds out to_____" written out ahead of time, so that all you had to do was fill in the blank. Am I right?

[CUBZ99]

Do the Cubs have enough guts to bring Pie up to play for either Jones or Pierre? Or do they just continue to watch the same stuff over and over?

why then, doesnt Sarge teach that?

You could probably make some kind of macro to quicken the process.

[Flames24Rulz]

Pierre grounds out to Gonzalez.

not this time, but I am admitting that I have done it before. Not afraid to admit it either :lol:

[badger1679666666]

[Flames24Rulz]

Young pops out to Hairston.

[stitchface]

just tell me when he does something different

[badger1679666666]

I keep going through cyles where this teams offensive play makes me angry as hell, and then makes me laugh hysterically.

 

Have the Cubs given me a mental disorder?
