This is like the 4th series is a row we've had to 'avoid the sweep' Pathetic

sweetpeteman · August 30, 2006

SWEEP!

macuser2 · August 30, 2006

Who cares?

EDIT: In a way I do, but I am glad I cannot watch today.

vance_the_cubs_fan · August 30, 2006

Does the season reach a new low when we get swept by the Pirates?

C.C. · August 30, 2006

Does the season reach a new low when we get swept by the Pirates?

I'd think so. Just when you think it can't get any worse. I'm just pulling for a good draft pick out of all of this...

Sammy Sofa · August 30, 2006

I can't believe Cedeno actually made me long for Neifi or Izturis last night.

I hope he's sent packing so fast at the end of the year that the speed of his departure sends the Earth spinning backwards, erasing our memories of him ever having played for the Cubs.

C.C. · August 30, 2006

I'd feel more comfortable beginning next year with Izturis at SS! Cedeno is brutal...

cubweiser03 · August 30, 2006

We need to see more Theroit in the offense. Gotta have a good look at him so he can be penicled in as the backup at the beginning of next year or not.

Bynum has no future in this club. Or at least he doesnt deserve so. The Riot does. Play him.

Bynum and Theriot are actually pretty similar.

Fred, what's your record so far this month.

You're doing a heck of a job taking one for the team, although it's a lot more than one.

Fred Hornkohl · August 30, 2006

You're doing a heck of a job taking one for the team, although it's a lot more than one.

I think it's something like 6-10. Don't really want to know, eh?

edit: I did look it up. It's 9-14.

Fred Hornkohl · August 30, 2006

Did anybody hear when was the last time the CUBS made 4 errors in a game ?? I know it has to go back before 2004, but I don't know how far back.

Fred Hornkohl · August 30, 2006

Pierre flied out to left field

Fred Hornkohl · August 30, 2006

Theriot blooped a single to right field

Fred Hornkohl · August 30, 2006

Ramirez blooped a single to center field , Theriot to third

goonys evil twin · August 30, 2006

It's been said a million times, but it's still pretty amazing to see how closely Dusty adheres to the CF must leadoff, 2B must hit 2nd, LF must hit 7th game plan.

Fred Hornkohl · August 30, 2006

Nevin grounded an IF single to third base , Theriot scored, Ramirez to second

Fred Hornkohl · August 30, 2006

CUBS are 40-20 when they score first in the game.... 14-58 when they don't

CUBS are 26-18 when they score in the first inning.... 28-60 when they don't

Go CUBS !!

sweetpeteman · August 30, 2006

Haha!
