DLEE pops up on a 3-0 count. Clines been tutoring him lately?

[Sammy Sofa]

Lee's looking ugly this series. I'm looking forward to him getting the off-time.

[cubfan1955]

Home: 0-4 13.80 ERA, 11 HR in 15 IP

Road: 2-3 5.67 ERA, 6 HR in 33.1 IP

 

Maybe the home booing really gets to him?

His road numbers are nothing to write home about.

This is the Cubs? They're playing good baseball.

This is ridiculous. Dusty will not be fired now.

I know. When the talk first came out that Baker would be evaluated over the All-Star Break, I predicted the Cubs would win 4 out of the next 5 games to save his job. Unfortunately it looks like that prediction may come true... :x

DNA tests all around! This isn't the same people we saw in May and June. And they are doing it with DLee struggling.

[Irrelevant Dude]

We were so close to having Dusty fired... I'm depressed now.
