5/11 Cubs (Hill) @ Phillies (Hamels) 6:05 CSN+/XM 185

[Flames24Rulz]

There are so few elements of a good team on teh Cubs this year.

 

Lee, Ramirez, Barrett (I guess), Hill.

 

Barrett? No. But you can add Marquis, Lilly, Theriot...

 

Barrett doesn't deserve to be listed on there. Can the guy have a 4 pitch AB? Ever?

And Soriano, who's going to have a very good OPS after today's game.

True.

Now barrett gets a hit...

Now barrett gets a hit...

Yeah and think if on full counts lee and ramirez would have taken the walks. But, hey that's how you get back into these type games.

Lee and Ramirez really worked the counts in those AB's. Not much to complain about.

Yeah, but they both could have walked. Both pitches they swung at were balls. Solo homers do no really help much at this point.

 

I feel a sweep coming on here.

[Yeti]

well, at least the brewers lost :?

[CubmanPi]

I think we all know full well that no game is over when Alf is on the mound.

 

/that's all I got :?

[CubmanPi]

Pitiful. I'm glad I finally got off my arse and ran a few errands during this one. I obviously didn't miss much.

[anabiono]

so, this season looks like it could quite possibly be a wash

 

now, there is the sale of the team...i only hope things don't get worse during new ownership

 

can hendry be fired after this season?

 

i guess it is fitting that the cubs won't win jack under his dominion...

 

god *************************************

 

bears - heartbreak

 

bulls - didn't expect them to do much in the playoffs...so...not biggie...

 

cubs - make me want to cry...seriously

[Lockes Eye Scar]

Very depressing game thread tonight.

It's still early and I could be wrong, but I cannpt believe that anyone thought this team would be good this year. They needed OBP and they got another hacker. They needed a CFer and they got two LFers. It's typical Cubs.

[CubmanPi]

Did DLee's on base streak end tonight?

[AFCubsFan]

On the bright side (for me), I wanted to take a day of leave to go to Philly to see the game today. Luckily, I couldn't get the time off. I would have been really bummed if I watched it in person.

 

I do have tickets for Cubs-Nats July 3 and 4. I'm not worried about those games at all.

At least you can expect all of them to be .500+ish

 

I was pretty heartbroken with the Bears season, but they at least went further than I ever could have imagined. I still can't realy even wrap my head around the fact that they were in the Superbowl.

 

Bulls kinda dissapointed me on the last day of the season and lost the inside track towards the Eastern Conference Championship, but at least they laid the beatdown on the Heat. We all knew this year wasn't a championship team. Lets wait for the draft.

 

The Cubs...well we still have a ways to go. Looks like the pitching is coming back down to Earth though.

:(

[Omar]

*sigh* another loss. At least Brewers lost, too.

[YearofDaCubs]

Did DLee's on base streak end tonight?

yes, it did.

[killthegoat06]

What's Hill's new ERA after today?

[Ding Dong Johnson]

What's Hill's new ERA after today?

 

2.51

[killthegoat06]

What's Hill's new ERA after today?

 

2.51

 

eww.

[A New Era]

What's Hill's new ERA after today?

 

2.51

 

eww.

 

Haha, pretty funny when 2.51 is "eww." :wink:

 

but I agree, it is very un-"Rich Hill like". :P

[IWU_CUBS_FAN]

the thing that makes tonight depressing is that the entire NL Central lost and the cubs were about the only one that had a lead at anytime...damn you pat burrell
