I'm really disapointed in Carlos. 3 starts and his ERA is 7.88.

 

He had a 5 run lead! I it weren't for Wuertz they wouldn't have a chance.

[Butterscup1679666578]

I'm convinced that the pitchers mound is the farthest that Izturis can hit a baseball. My hatred for him grows more and more every days.

[illiniguy]

That 5th inning was the Cubs in a nutshell. Like a 125 year history of the franchise all rolled up into one inning.

[BigSlick]

I have a feeling the Cubs will end up tying it up.

 

But then lose anyway.

Jon Coutlangus, ladies and gentlemen.

He had the best arm I've ever seen on a college CF.

[RichHillIsABeast]

Why do we all have to tap dance around Z's mental makeup? Why can't we just call a spade a spade? Yeah, he has problems with his control, but its the symptom not the disease. He was doing fine with his control (one walk in the previous four innings) until he started mentally unraveling after the first two guys reached base. Then its 3 walks and a hit batter.

 

Problems with his emotional control

 

I believe the official term is "teenage girl syndrome."

[Geech]

Jon Contalingous?

 

...if only Harry were alive to say this name.... :shock: :lol:

 

Colonel Angus?

 

Cunnilingus?

[Sosa21MVP]

At least the bats picked us up that inning. :roll:

[BeerHere]

Good teams follow good innings by the other team by putting a run or two on the board, or at least getting a runer into scoring position. My Cubbies put exactly one ball into play and it didn't get past the pitcher.

Jake the neighborhood guy needs to die of gonorrhea and go to hell.

[soapy]

Wait a second, we didn't start Matt Murton and his 3 HR in 15 ABs against Harang? Argh.

 

You're not allowed to complain about this yet. I'm told that's the rule.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Cotts in to pitch for the CUBS

[Soriano12]

Weurtz is going to strike out Hamilton, then cure if off the Big C.

Alas, with the suck part of the line-up due up, it was a forlorn hope.

[Butterscup1679666578]

Why doesn't Lou ever let Wuertz go more than 1?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Hamilton struck out (called)

[BeerHere]

DeRosa?

[Derwood]

wow, it's chilly in here. I take it the COBS showed up instead of the Cubs?

[IWU_CUBS_FAN]

thats funny cuz he didnt put ohman in a spot to succeed, bob, because if he would have done that ohman would be still in the bullpen jacket in tact

[illiniguy]

So DeRosa can play but we still got to watch Cedeno today? Wonderful.

[Mephistopheles]

now we know not to trust injury reports...

[Sammy Sofa]

Oh-la-la...Lee wanted a piece of something there...

[Fred Hornkohl]

Dunn popped out (foul) to the catcher
