5/24: Cubs (Maddux) @ Marlins (Moehler) - 12:05 p.m. CT- WGN

[mul21]

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!

 

3 run bomb by Cabrera.

 

Dusty, you [expletive] suck. Go walk in front of a bus.

 

I didn't realize that was quite how I felt until reading this. Well said!!!!!!

[moorecg]

We just got swept by a AAA team. How freaking amazing is it that Florida has constructed a better team than we have by having a 20 million payroll and trading away ALL vetrans? I'm for trading everyone...I'll keep Lee, anyone else can go.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Ohman in to pitch for the CUBS

[Master Shake]

I was always partial to the Rally Goat.

Yeah, the slug doesn't seem to be helping much.

 

Time for the Rally Goat...

You guys realize that a come-from-behind victory would only hurt this team in the long run...right?

 

I think that's why the goat is roasted... :lol:

[moorecg]

Man, that Marlin team can really HIT.

 

every team can hit our pitching.

[Master Shake]

Oh-no-man in to pitch for the CUBS

 

Fixed

[muntjack]

Swept is probably not the best word - I think HAMMERED would be a more descriptive word.

 

 

23-8

[Master Shake]

WHat inning is it? I don't keep track anymore.

The only problem is, they made smart trades and stocked their minor league system. Remember who was the architect of the Cubs system.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Borchard walked

As if I needed more reason, I've decided that I hate the Marlins as much as, if not more, than the Astros.

Why hate the Marlins? Lay the hate where it should be addressed to and that's to the stooges, MacPhail, fat-Hendry and Dude man.

[goonys evil twin]

Any chance, with an off day tomorrow and after getting swept by the Marlins that Dusty gets canned? He has received a strong vote of confidence lately. TIME FOR A CHANGE, even if it isn't all his fault.

 

They have to do something! I mean they can't keep this up...

 

You could have made the same case practically any day this month. 4 game sweep in San Diego, 3 game sweep at home, then an off day. Following the disgrace that was the White Sox series.

 

We have been making the case, I am just hoping that with each passing day and with the amount of suckitude getting worse that maybe, just maybe Hendry can pull his head out of his rearend long enough to pull the trigger.

 

I know we've been making the case, my point was just that Hendry had the chance long ago. MacPhail foolishly extended Hendry way too early in the season. If you are going to wait to see how the team responds during the season, why not wait more than a week? Give it 2 months and see what's going on. Hendry refuses to make moves this early in the season, why resign him that early? Given the foolish nature in everything management does, I don't think there is enough losing that can cause them to make a change.

 

They'll probably demote some guys and call-up Womack.

[E.J.]

Bottom 7. And Ohman comes in and gives up another walk. Good job team!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Hermida flied out to right field

Yup. The Cubs are getting violated by the worst team in the NL, but hey, let's give Dusty an extension.

[C.C.]

Can we get Don Baylor back?

[moorecg]

Just a reminder. With a loss today we have DOUBLED the number of home wins the Marlins have had for THE YEAR.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 10-5 when they allow fewer than 4 walks.... 8-22 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

Actually, I can totally see that happen. Womack is going to save us, dude.

Yep, if your team is in an offensive slump just wait til they play the Cubs.

 

Works every time.

[Master Shake]

Borchard walked

 

Heh...

 

Coach, what was that thing he just did?

[XZero771679666304]

Can we get Don Baylor back?

 

At least Baylor sucked with no-talent teams.

Extensions for everybody!!
