True....good call. :lol:

[FloridaCubbie]

What happened to good prior? Will we ever see him again?

I'm only watching on gameday so mabye I'm missing something, but it seems to me that he's doing pretty good he's just having a hard time finishing batters off.

When the Cubs and Prior part ways and he has a resurgence with his new team.

[ToupeeOnFire]

Don't worry, 3 runs will not win this game -- not with this offense. :-#

 

If the old Prior decides to reemerge in this game, I'll forgive his earlier indiscretions.

[texascub]

There's one run back.

[ToupeeOnFire]

Juan Pierre, RBI machine.

[texascub]

The offense is actually still clicking....I wonder how long this can last?

[texascub]

A solo shot from Mabry brings the Cubs within 1.

[ToupeeOnFire]

Mabry with the home run...Dusty has the magic touch.

[ToupeeOnFire]

Dusty apparently doesn't want to win this game, he's got Glendon Rusch warming up in the pen.

 

...and for the the six-millionth time, Dave Otto, on the radio broadcast, uses the words "dead red".

[E.J.]

Prior doesn't even make it out of the 4th inning. And to make matters worse, we have Glendon coming in with 2 runners on. I'm sure this will turn out well.

[texascub]

Prior was only at 76 pitches....Is he injured or did Baker just pull him because he's struggling?

[ToupeeOnFire]

I thought Dusty was trying to save his job.

[cheapseats]

I'm glad Walker didn't try to get the runner at 2nd. Taking the easy out at first was the smart play.

[cheapseats]

Glendon covered first! :shock:

[ToupeeOnFire]

First Mabry, now Glendon...Dusty is pushing all of the right buttons tonight! Edited July 22, 2006 by ToupeeOnFire

Glendon covered first! :shock:

 

It's a miracle! Watch as he and Neifi save us.

Why does Prior suck? Do you hate us???

BP: Before we end, I want to make sure to ask you about one of your poster children, Mark Prior. He’s lauded for having pristine mechanics, and while he’s had a few freak injuries, he’s also had some arm woes. Why is that?

 

TH: Remember what we talked about the beginning. Mechanics, functional strength, and workload. He’s been overworked.
