08/21 Philadelphia (Lieber) @ CUBS (Hill) 7:20 CDT, CSN+ TV

[JonnyRed]

Well I see it hasn't taken Dusty long to find his new Neifi...Theriot didn't make it one full game before he was replaced by Bynum.

[Mizzou]

Neifi 0-4 for Detroit tonight. No word on many crotch grabs he registered.

[Laura]

whoa, that looked ugly

[Careless]

:shock: :shock: :shock:

Wow, I hope he's ok.

[Anna]

What happened?

[Laura]

He's lucky he didn't break his neck. Yech.

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

Rowand must be one big bruise.

[Laura]

What happened?

 

Rowand and Utley were both running after a Mabry blooper in short center and completely crashed into each other.

[Careless]

Rowand might have sprained his knee and neck on the same play.

[cheapseats]

Cubs hitters should test Victorino in CF. If I were Dusty, I would order them to hit to CF.

Eek, those plays are always scary.

[A New Era]

Bob keeps saying it looked like he smooshed his wrist. It looked like he came down on his head and right shoulder pounding those into the ground.

[Laura]

Rowand left the game, looked like his left leg was hurt but he bounced in all sorts of ways when he hit the ground, so he may have other injuries.

[Careless]

So how many people are dumping off tickets now? I was offered 4 tickets for 3 different games this week by 3 different people in a 3 hour period this morning.

I'm glad I already sold all of mine.

[cheapseats]

Bynum will come through.

[synergy]

13 hits, 3 runs. Wow talk about non-clutch hitters. This just validates the point that we need more power hitters. Pitchers aren't afraid to challenge these free swinging singles hitters. It takes 4 singles to score 1 run.

Which is why most power hitters also have good OBP. But Hendry believes speed = OBP.

[cheapseats]

Jacque strap!

[Careless]

well thats a bad ending

[chuckywang]

16 hits, 5 runs.

 

 

Repeat.

 

 

16 hits, 5 runs.

[synergy]

That's what you get with a lineup with no power.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Cobs sukk

[soccer10k]

16 hits, 5 runs.

 

 

Repeat.

 

 

16 hits, 5 runs.

 

Wow. Only the Cubs can routinely pull something like this off.

Wow. Only the Cubs can routinely pull something like this off.

 

What makes me even more angry is the fact that we caught Lieber when he was not at his best, and we just couldn't get the clutch hits.

 

Figures. On the day when both Ramirez and Jones go 4-5, they are sandwiched by 1-5 performances by our no. 2 and no. 5 hitters.
