4/16 Cubs (Marquis) vs. Fathers (Hensley), 7:05 pm CST, CSN

[Chris]

So that's where the offense came from

[Coach C]

When can we get rid of Miller and make Guzman the 5th starter?

 

As soon as possible.

[Omar]

Omar, your host for your sig sucks. It's just loading and loading for me

 

Yeah.. But it has a small URL so I can fit all my sig in. Imageshack has a longer url.

 

Anyone have the same problem?

[A New Era]

It's easy to get HR's when you don't need them.

 

are you serious or is this just a manner of speaking?

 

Sure i'm serious. How relaxed is cliff when you have a 8-1 lead as opposed to the 8th inning with a 0-2 deficit. You seriuosly think that has ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with it? Or to you seriously think baseball players are robots?

 

i assume you're making this claim without much to back it up.

 

Hmm. Just basic psychology. positive attitude breeds positive results.

[hawkcub]

Love those who sing the stretch and say lets get some runs when the Cubs are only up by 11.

[Omar]

Izzy lines to SS. 1 down.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Izturis lined out to shortstop

i don't want to see wade miller :(

[Omar]

Ward lines right to SS..

 

Looks like they're asked to swing away. End the game earlier, and get some rest for tomorrow.

Ward lined out to shortstop

Hmm. Just basic psychology. positive attitude breeds positive results.

 

More realistically, perhaps... in games that are out of hand, you are less likely to face the better relievers.

This is one of the few times you can't blame them for being aggressive.

[Sammy Sofa]

When can we get rid of Miller and make Guzman the 5th starter?

 

soon, I hope

 

In my perfect world, Prior replaces Miller, Guzman replaces Hill, and Hill takes Z spot when we trade Z for ARod or Cabrera.

that's not psychology, that's metaphysics.

[98navigator]

Ward is just in as mopup....right? :shock:

 

yeah, D is fine. No need risking some flukey injury with this lead.

 

Probably more about the rest for the day game tomorrow.

 

Well, if this were a tight game he's still be in there...

[Omar]

Floyd Ks. 1-2-3. Let's go Guz!

[seanimal]

Just got in, can someone give me the highlights?

 

The Cubs hitters figured out what those wood things were for. Marquis successfully portraying a major league pitcher.

I'll just leave it at that and bow to all you superior baseball fans who know that baseball is all #'s and stats. Not directed to you Rob.
