4/15 Cubs (Lilly) vs. Reds (Lohse) 1:20 CT WGN / XM188

Why are we letting Jacque face a lefty?

 

Only righties we have on the bench are Cedeno and Blanco.

Crap

[illiniguy]

Well, we're wasting an out here letting Jones bat against a lefty.

 

Who would you pinch-hit with since Murton was already used? Cedeno?

Zambrano or Marquis.

[E.J.]

Jones is terrible.

Prediciton - Ramirez hits a two run winning homer....

 

That'd be impressive considering he's not available.

 

i guess the game thread is a bad place for sarcasm?

 

I thought that might've been sarcastic, but I wasn't sure. My mistake.

[Chris]

Um, 3 feet high and outside?

Not if you make it known your being sarcastic. I fail to see how your post was sarcastic.

For heaven's sake, Jones simply sucks against left handers! Can't anyone figure that out?!

The Cubs are about to lose 4 of their first 6 games at home to start the season. (Pretty sure if it wasn't for the postponed third game against the Stros, the Cubs would have been swept) Doesn't that just make you feel all tingling after what the Cubs did in the offseason.

 

The Cubs players needs to "man up" and stop playing like first yr t-ballers.

 

Yeah, I know what you mean. We should call the whole season a waste because we will lose 4 games at home, three without an all-star batter in the lineup. Heck, why would we want to cheer on the fact Cubs pitchers have given up one run in the last 22 innings?

 

What good is the pitching, if the team can't score? Good pitching in a loss, the game is still a loss. I give dap to the pitcher's for doing their jobs, but eventually the pitching is going to flattened out, so the offense is going to need to find the right end of the bat to use.

we win

Jones against a lefty. I bet no one saw that one ending badly.

He's got a better chance than Jones. Did you see Jones in that at-bat? I could go up there and put up a better fight.

[Butterscup1679666578]

If you're going to swing at it, it's a good pitch to drive into LF. Unfortunately Jones chops it into the ground.

we win

 

Dude, just say we lose for once.

This game is OVAAA!

Would someone who follows the cubs enough to be on northsidebaseball not know that Ramirez is injured?

Jones grounded out to short, 6-3
