I don't care.

[dvdd127]

I want to see Marshall do well.. and then have the team lose after he is take out.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I won't be able to watch. It's probably for the best.

[soccer10k]

If I get up early enough I'll watch part of this on MLB.TV but I'm going to see Clerks II at 12:30 (Pacific Time) tomorrow.

No. It's supposed to be Cy Hernandez if you're going to copy my style. :wink:

What a lineup! :roll: Less reason to watch...

[rocket]

walker must have really pissed baker off

[otis89]

Neifi vs. Livan: 8-30

Walker vs. Livan: 5-13

 

I thought Dusty was obsessed with matchups.

I watched that Sunday afternoon-evening Cubs-Mets game, but that's been it.

apparently NOT... for crists sake... I am happy I forgot to set my tivo to record this game.

[jwhatti]

Neife should never ever bat second in a line-up...EVER!!!

I am willing to rate that as the absolute worst game ever by the Cubs... blowing a 5 run lead only to lose by 6.

[cjbucks]

While I agree with that the Neifster does have a 935 ops for July.

[Outshined_One]

I'm not the only one who thinks Uncle Lou is senile after listening to this broadcast for a few minutes, am I?

[badger1679666666]

Neife should never ever bat in a Cubs line-up...EVER!!! He's the worst qualified hitter in history.

 

Fixed your post.

[UMFan83]

I don't like Lou Piniella based off of his comments so far.

He used the fun old "innings eater" comment to describe the value of 5.80+ ERA pitcher Livan Hernandez.

 

Then he said that Pierre started slow because of the weather and heated up as the weather got warmer. Yet I remember Pierre's average toiling in the .220s durring the hot days of June.

 

Now he just called Wrigley a friendly HR park

[UMFan83]

Where were you in April Aramis?

Drinking El Presidente cervezas...

Spier wouldn't have sent him

Pierre in June: .283/.352/.381

[Outshined_One]

Ah yes, Nevin took the ol' question mark route to that one.

[Mizzou]

Is this the 3rd straight game that Lee has sat out? Did he re-injure his wrist or something??
