5/19 - Cubs (Maddux) @ White Sox (Buehrle) - 3:05 WGN

[Chocolate Milk]

Rusch warming up to throw LH BP to the White Sox.

Shut up, seriously? This could be the ultimate gas can situation.

[E.J.]

Maddux was lucky not to give up more that inning. They were crushing the ball. It takes us 10 games to see that many hard hit balls.

[cheapseats]

neifi's rep for being a good defender is as baseless as walker's rep for being a bad one.

 

Now, now. Neifi was actually one of the best fielding shortstops in baseball last year. Nobody's perfect. And, of course, when you figure offense into the equation, Neifi's not even close to perfect.

[kylescubs23]

So should we get the extension talks going for Maddux now.

Don't think this situation needs gas. Completely spontaneous combustion.

Now that we lost another game what will it take to get Baker and some of these players fired or traded?

he hasn't looked like the best fielding anything this year.

We should hope that:

 

a) Maddux continues to pitch well

b) Phillies stay close in NL East by all-star break

[kylescubs23]

9 pitch inning coming up

If any of them are caught on film leaving the park before the game is over, they're outta here!

The Cubs are keeping them all out of spite.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Hairston popped out to second base

[mul21]

If hairston would keep the bat on his shoulder he would have a 3-0 count right now. So irritating to see them keep swinging at total crap.

Why should Neifi peform? He tricked the stupid Hendry to give him an inflated 2 year contract. Maybe next year in his contract year we might see Super Neifi again.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Walker grounded out to second, 4-3

Yep. Neifi tears it up during his contract years.

[UMFan83]

The Cubs are not that good.

I should have mentioned..By Neifi's standards.

How many pitches for Buehrle thus far?

[goonys evil twin]

That insinuates we've seen super Neifi before. This contract is probably his last unless Hendry extends him.

[UMFan83]

shouldnt have scored those 12 runs in the Nationals series. They had to know they would only have 3 runs left for the rest of the week.

[cheapseats]

Yeah, that's all you can do: hit the ball hard, and hope that it finds a gap. Cubs hitters have just been unlucky for the last couple of games.

[abuck1220]

if lee was in the lineup, the cubs would have 11 runs right now.
