4/17 Cubs (Miller) vs. Fathers (Maddux), 1:20 pm CT, WGN

[Banedon]

Albert Pujols sucks this year. That's enjoyable to know.

 

If he keeps it up all year, I'll gladly sacrifice the black hole on my fantasy team and take credit for his down year :D

 

I like referring to him as "Adam Dunn" when talking to my Cardinal fan co-worker. It gets him good and riled up. :D

[CaliforniaRaisin]

no. 17 should be RETIRED!!!!

 

8-) 8-)

 

It's a bit premature for Felix.

 

And so it begins for Wade.

[Post Count Padder]

Bloop single. Nice start, Miller.

Albert Pujols sucks this year. That's enjoyable to know.

 

I'm starting to wonder if he's hurt. Around this time last year Pujols was banging out 4 HR's in 4 consecutive at-bats against the Pirates instead of popping out with the bases juiced to end the game.

 

Anyone know what his health status is?

[E.J.]

Giles with a leadoff single.

[Derwood]

no. 17 should be RETIRED!!!!

 

8-) 8-)

As Mark Grace swears at the TV

 

GRACE, HILL, MABRY....

here we go

I really hate flat brimmed hats. When did that become cool? It looks terrible.

 

I've trained every hat I've ever owned.

[soapy]

Wow...Murton, Theriot, Cedeno and Pie all playing at the same time. We're not in 2003-2006 anymore.

I'm excited about Gooz being sent down if the intent is to get him ready to start again. He's really starting to round into form.

 

Agreed. Like I said in the game thread yesterday when Guzman was rolling through the Padre hitters, Miller is likely nervous.

[Brian]

move it along, I want to see Pie bat before i have to leave

[Old Style]

Can't wait to see Pie get his first action.

Well, he turned 40 and 50 in the last offseason. It's bound to happen when you start getting up in age.

[Post Count Padder]

Can't wait to see Pie get his first action.

Yeah, I'm glad this game is on WGN so I can watch his debut.

[CubColtPacer]

I like the movement on Miller's pitches so far.

[Brian]

I'd really like to get one of those Cubs jackets but they are 100$, that's a bit steep for me.

[FloridaCubbie]

Miller needs to hurry up and retire the side.

 

I really wanna se Pie's first PA befre class.

[Old Style]

C'mon, Wade.

[soccer10k]

And we're off to a good start.

[98navigator]

Bad move Murton

[Brian]

AWESOME START

[Post Count Padder]

Crap

[YearofDaCubs]

That was fast..

[ToupeeOnFire]

Murton couldn't have played that any worse.

[OleMissCub]

valiant effort
