6/4 Cubs (Maddux) @ Cards (Marquis) 1:15 CT on WGN

[Balsa]

How come I keep getting opposing broadcasts...why don't I get Len and Bob anymore?

 

I'm on MLB.TV

I never hope a player gets hurt, however....

 

I read too many posts/articles/conversations after the DLee/Wood/Prior injuries with fans happy he was out for a while. Too many Card fans were happy since Pujols was a lock for the batting title and MVP.

 

 

Here's hoping Edmonds destroys his back and Pujols languishes on the DL for the rest of the year.

 

I hope for an injury to Barry Bonds every day and have been for years. Although this year I don't really need a serious injury because any little injury could end his career.

 

Balco Barry is 0-2 today and is being warmly greeted by Metropolitan fans today, with syringes and Junk Bonds signs

After not being able to watch on Friday and Saturday, I actually get to watch this game which means the Cubs are going to lose. I'll apologize in advance.

WTF MLB TV ISNT WORKING???!!!!

September 5-7, 2005, which was the last time the Cardinals were swept in a three game series at home.

 

The Cubs won this series, but lost game 1, 6-4.

 

Damn, I guess that's what I get for relying on "The Chicago Cubs Media Relations Office" which I was quoting from today's press notes.

Does now. Although we get crappy Cards casters.

[CubinNY]

Listening to Brenly reminds me why he is in the booth and not in the dugout.

There so annoying.

It's amazing isn't it.

I'd rather have Nevin starting at 1B and Walker at 2B even though they are facing a RHP. Why trade for a guy and then sit him on the bench?

[Balsa]

Cards announcers: "And Bennett goes out to talk to Marquis, probably saw something he didn't like"

 

Gee might that have been 6 straight balls that weren't even close?

Because he can't hit RHP. Of course, when the alternative is Womack....

 

On another note, Pierre's still holding strong at a .588 OPS.

[soccer10k]

Speed kills.

[Shavo]

Yay Tony!

[hrowengartner]

Nice

[Shavo]

Two walks ... :D

[hrowengartner]

2 walks in the first inning :shock:

[soccer10k]

Two walks and in the first inning no less. What team is this and where are the real Cubs?

[Shavo]

MLB.TV is being a turd.

[soccer10k]

Wow. Bob Brenly is a genius. "It's no coincidence that the Cubs have put together better at bats when they take pitches and give the pitcher more opportunities to make a mistake."

 

Hear that Dusty?
