6/14 Astros[Oswalt] @ COBS!!![Maddux] - 7:05 pm CT on WGN

[illiniguy]

It sure is nice to see in the AL voting for all stars Joe I am hitting .388 Mauer isn't in the top 5.

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

A J Buttinski just hit for the 2nd time tonight, things about to erupt in hot Texas tonight.

 

Jerry Hairston might get a chance to be part of two fights with the Sox.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Burke singled to left field

[illiniguy]

Good lord these guys don't ever hit like this.

[Brian]

Guzman looked sleepy down there in the bullpen.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Berkman struck out swinging as Burke stole second base

[Jim Ignatowski]

I am ready to see Murton in a platoon.

 

I'm about ready to see him on Broadway in pantaloons.

[anemic offense]

What's up. Maddux shure loocs grate toniht! :(

[illiniguy]

Seriously this team consists of Lance Berkman, Craig Biggio, and the minor leaguers, yet they always do better than us.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 10-18 when the opponent steals a base.... 16-19 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Lane grounded out to the pitcher, 1-3, Burke to third

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

So the bullpen phones used in yesterday's game are on their way to the Hall of Fame but Ron Santo can't get in there.

I don't get it. Sure he's struggling against righties right now, but how's he going to ever learn if he gets platooned right away? He hasn't even played a full season. Not to mention who would we put out there??? Bynum? Mabry?? No thanks.

Well I would like to see us trade with someone to improve our team. Aren't the Pirates about ready to trade Bay? lol.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Wilson singled to center field, Burke scored

[Brian]

man this sucks.

[illiniguy]

This is ridiculous. Now Wilson comes through.

[Flames24Rulz]

Maddux's curveball sucks tonight.

[anemic offense]

Maddux is worthless. He keeps this up we couldn't trade him if we wanted to.

[Brian]

Maddux is worthless. He keeps this up we couldn't trade him if we wanted to.

 

and there is still people that want to extend him for 1-2 years.

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

I hate 2 out hits for the opposing team.

[illiniguy]

What kind of bizzaro world is this where Brad Ausmus has an .364 OBP?
