7/28 Cards (Marquis) @ Cubs (Marmol); 1:20 CT, CSN Chicago

[dalgreen]

Novoa's inability to get Rolen or Encarnarcion out assures Pujols will bat one more time this game.

[jjgman21]

I don't care that much for Novoa, but he might not have had to appear if Marmol could've gotten through six or even into the seventh. Our starting pitchers are killing our bullpen. I hope Wuertz doesn't have to be used today because then he'll likely be unavailable tomorrow. And with Maddux going in the heat, he may only get through four or five innings.

 

that comes with the package of having three rookies and Maddux in the rotation. two times ago in the rotation I think they had like six straight QS. those streaks will happen too.

 

the scheduling bafoonery doesn't help either with no off days, nor does facing some really good (or hot) offenses three series in a row.

[da bears]

There it is.

Dang. Now that it's a one-run game, LaRussa likely won't retaliate. I know it's sick, but I want to see a brawl.

 

I think if he is going to do it the score won't matter. he'll pick a spot.

 

Good call, Jiggman!

[jjgman21]

so fricken bush. and he never gets punished for it.

[Jon]

How many times is Brenley going to mention Barrett making an out that didn't contribute to the Cubs' big inning?

[Ding Dong Johnson]

That's why I carry a gun when I bat.

We're out of the race. Time to throw at Pujols.

[soccer10k]

I hate you Tony LaRussa.

[woodchip2153]

so fricken bush. and he never gets punished for it.

 

according to his book, he only retaliates when it was intentional. :roll:

[da bears]

Seriously, what's the point. I hope Jones hits a home run now to make La Russa pay. Just unnecessary.

[dalgreen]

Too bad Ramirez didn't pull a Griffey, Jr. and go after the manager in the dugout.

If I read lips correctly, Aramis told Looper, "I'm going to beat your ass."

Aw F it. Just throw it right at Larrusa's FACE!

[jjgman21]

the warning should have come after the Rolen with LaRussa's track record. that was obviously unintentional and it was obvious he was going to retaliate.

 

 

make em pay Jacque.

If only Aramis would hustle and not slack off, he would have escaped Gary Bennett's grip and gotten to tee off on Looper.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I kid. :wink:

[da bears]

This is as badly as I've wanted the Cubs to score a run in quite a while. Come on Murton.

He should have punched Bennett for good measure.

Aw F it. Just throw it right at Larrusa's FACE!

 

Agreed. That SOB needs to learn that NOT every time his player gets hit, he has to hit the other teams batter. I wish somebody would go Barrett on LaRussa, and hipefully that would knocked some sense into TLA, the 2nd biggest moron in baseball.

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

I think the Cards need a cold shower.

Aramis was too busy stealing signs.

Serena I like your avatar .. but if that's how effeminate the '08 Tigers looked taking a relay throw, no wonder the Cubs won the WS that year :wink:
