Carlos you piss me off so much.

Geezus...

I don't have time to read this whole thread (i'm at work), and I'm "watching" the game via gameday, but I just wanted to know if anyone has seen or heard anything about this umps strike zone.

 

The hit by pitch on Sanchez looked like it was on the border... so he must have been hugging the plate, and now with Bay up, here's the pitches according to gameday:

too early to start up the bullpen?

 

No

[TruffleShuffle]

hooray for batting practice

[anabiono]

i have a novel idea...lets trade zambrano and jones as a package deal...surely we could get something worthwhile in exchange

 

christ

[BigSlick]

ARRRRRRRGHH

 

why do we have to get Bad Z on a day when Blanco and Pagan are in the lineup?

[synergy]

where are all the dumb Murton backers now.....horribly played. Game over. Cubs are incapable of scoring 3 runs.

[Garwilly]

Wait. Pagan? Who got sent down? Hopefully Pie.

 

yes

[Guest]

Correct.

[windycityfan]

Would the real Zambrano please stand up.

[Derwood]

seriously, when did the wheels come off for Z? it's not like we expected this

[Chris]

Well dang, didn't expect to see this when I turned on the tv

[BigSlick]

Hopefully he can get 3 outs and settle down like last time.

[Garwilly]

He's not even close. He's not. Even. Close.

Right after Dusty left so we can pretend it's not his fault

[Derwood]

Cubs will go down, in order, on 8 pitches

[Pushfrog98]

seriously... according to gameday, 80% of the "balls" are pretty good pitches... and gameday is usually fairly accurate...

I am a Murton backer and I'm right here.

[soccer10k]

The first out isn't huge this inning because the Pirates still have two more.

[C.C.]

Another bad game from Z, and it's only the 1st.

[anabiono]

i really don't like watching zambrano starts...he is crap...i think he needs a change of scenery

 

100 mil for this guy...i certainly hope not...people think soriano's deal is iffy...that would just be atrocious

The general rule is no hard liquor before sunset, just so you're aware.

no, he's throwing some pitches 2 feet off the plate
