6/15 Astros [Nieve] @ Cubs [Z] 1:20 pm CT on CSN

[cheapseats]

was the play routine or was there some degree of difficulty?

It wasn't an error. He was out and the ump blew the call.

 

True.

[sweetpeteman]

Robertson vs. Rusch

Verlander vs. Marmol

Rogers vs. PRIOR

 

Looking at the pitching matchups, looks like we'll be swept by the Tigers this weekend, putting our record at 26-42 and putting us on pace for a record of 62-100

I thought Prior was due to pitch Sunday.

Fixed

You've got to be kidding me Howry doesn't get charged with any of those runs.

 

We need a rule change.

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

Howry with the K on to the bottom of the 8th.

[C.C.]

Only a matter of time before you lost this game. You just knew it was coming. Oh well...Well pitched game by Z is a shame he won't see a win.

[sweetpeteman]

So now you decide to pitch well, Bob?

Ok....lets unleash our potent offense for a comeback here......or

[cheapseats]

Kasper and Brenly are lamenting the Cubs' lack of power. I fully expect Hendry and MacPhail to pull them aside and curse at them after the game for publicly questioning management.

[C.C.]

I love how we play just good enough to lose! At least we get creative in our loses and we aren't being blown out so they are good games...

Yeah the only difference between this game and the other 2 games of the series is that Zambrano kept the Astros from scoring. The Cubs offense was pointless in this series. If they are going to suck, they might as well not bat and save the people watching 1.5 hours.

Lack of power, lack of coaching, lack of players, lack of everything!

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

Base hit to left for Barrett.

[gerby23]

Bloop single by Barrett to lead off

Not scoring in the bottom 7th with a leadoff Triple comes back to haunt you everytime.

A solo shot only ties it. Maybe they should be bemoaning the fact that nobody ever gets on base.

[Soul]

I've wanted a good hitting catcher in this town for years.

 

We finally got a good one, only the rest of the team sucks so it doesn't matter.

 

I'm in Cubbie Hell right now. I need to get home from work and just down about two fifths of JD.

 

Somebody edit Howry's line to reflect how he ACTUALLY pitches. He's junk, I've never seen him not struggle.

[bleedcubbieblue]

Lack of power, lack of coaching, lack of players, lack of everything!

 

Not to fear, we got Piror coming back, then things will be alright with the universe again!

 

BCB

[Big Fergie J]

Alright Barrett.

 

Then again we stranded a lead-off triple.

See what happens when Z doesn't throw over 120 pitches. :wink:

[ryno-mvp23]

Typical Cubs inning. #-o ](*,)

good call

I at the point I don't even get mad anymore. I just accept it!

I hate having to watch this implosion on Astros TV...in other news Walker just grounded into the Cubs 83rd & league leading double play
