*Sigh*

*Deep Breath*

 

Alright, Cubs, that's one down. Hold 'em here and get 'em in the 9th.

 

LET'S GO CUBS!!!

LET'S GO CUBS!!!

LET'S GO CUBS!!!

maybe pierre should contact balco, maybe some of the ground outs to second would go somewhere else

[ToupeeOnFire]

On the bright side, at least we cleared Pierre's spot in the line-up for the ninth.

[swordsman]

One more, boys. Get this guy.

 

LET'S GO CUBS!!!

LET'S GO CUBS!!!

Pierre is nearing the c-patt status of stinking...

 

hes actually worse i think

 

Corey has been good for 5 more runs of offense than Pierre so far this year (per VORP). And Corey has less than 2/3 the plate appearances. And players don't stretch singles into doubles on Corey.

 

Pierre sucks.

So instead of weak groundouts to second he would have hard groundouts to second.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

3 pitches, 2 outs? They look like us.

Very true!

Or pop-outs to RF.

Yep we got Derrek Lee, Aram and walker coming up, we really have a great chance

Very true!

 

That's the main reason I wanted Bynum to get on, I knew we wouldn't score, but at least we'd avoid Pierre in the 9th.

No more speed for the swordsman

[Outshined_One]

I was checking the box scores just now.

 

Somehow, I'm not surprised the Cubs didn't manage to draw a walk with a guy who had a K/BB of 13/17 on the mound against them.
