6/16 Detroit Tigers (Robertson) @ Cobs (Rusch) 1:20 PM - WGN

[NCCubFan]

May as well start thinking about Saturday's game and look forward to Marmol's second start. By starting Rusch, the Cubs have already conceded defeat on Friday.

Rusch is really busting out of his jersey there.

[Derwood]

at least this will jumpstart shelton's HR numbers again for those of you who picked him in HR Derby

Glendon really likes starting. Starting pitchers get the first dibs at the post game buffet.

[C.C.]

We already lost 7-2...

 

Does someone want to start Saturday's thread?

 

Well the good news is I don't have to stress out about the Cubs this summer...The season is already over and now I can kick back and watch games without throwing my remote or fist against my wall...I'll save on repairs to boot!

[Big Fergie J]

If this was an eating contest I would definitely like our chances.

 

But guess what......it isn't.

 

A long day awaits the squad.

[FloridaCubbie]

Sooooooo. When does football season start?

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Still refusing to watch the games, Dusty? GLENDON RUSCH IS NOT GOOD.

 

Cubs win, 13-11.

13 runs? I know Dusty says that Bynum has surprising power, but wow.

[Derwood]

2 homers from Neifi and one each from Bynum, Mabry and Blanco

 

cubs fans surrender

Or a track race..

[Chocolate Milk]

This is going to be a bloodbath.

How'd we ever score 2 runs???

Cubs baseball is now funnier than "Everybody Loves Raymond", and that's one very funny show.

Shelton will feel bad for us and in the 9th inning don a Cubs jersey and smack a 2 run shot

Lets play guess the bad lineup....

 

Pierre cf

Perez ss (have to get his glove in the lineup against this good hitting tigers team)

Walker 1b (While this is an AL team...they're playing in an NL park...so Nevin would be at a disadvantage)

Ramirez 3b

Jones rf

Bynum lf (fast AL guy...tigers won't know what to do with him)

Blanco C (gotta rest Barrett before he starts his suspension)

Womak SS (he played in the AL one time...he knows these guys)

Fat guy.

:lol:

[Derwood]

Wow, two guys at short? That is bad.

[woodchip2153]

Wow, two guys at short? That is bad.

 

However, since Rusch only gives up fly balls, maybe we should use 4 outfielders.

While I wouldn't put it past him....I meant to have Womak at 2nd...I think...

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Good strategy if 2 can play in the bleachers and 1 on Waveland.

Isn't the wind blowing out? Better have 2 on Waveland.

This is already the greatest game thread of all time.
