how did howry ever get this far with a straight 92 mph fastball and nothing more?

 

That's what I don't understand? How can someone be successful with a 92 MPH fastball right down the middle plate.

The game thread attackers are back. Howry hasn't given up an earned run since mid April before today, he's far from awful.

 

But he was awful today...

I wish I could find a away to detach myself from this team. This team is pathetic.

 

I've been saying that for years.

Last year he was throwing 93-95. The Dusty innings have gotten to him.

Watch game film from last year and realize that this is an improvement

Howry was outstanding today. I'm proud of this team. They're making sure that we will have no hopes left to crush in September. Losing now sucks...but not as bad as being good and blowing it in the fall. Thank you Bob Howry...you are the player of the game.

I have to go chaperone a high school Prom tonight, never thought that would look like the better option than watching the Cubs.

I just don't see how we will be able to catch up to the Brewers and to be honest with other teams doing so well, we're probably already done. This team is so pathetic with its inconsistent offense, inconsistent bullpen and the baserunning blunders that give you heartburn everyday save for off days.

Petition MLB to let us play the Pirates and Nats for the rest of the season. We OWN them.

The only consistent is losing. If are starters are good our offense is bad. If both are starting pitching and offense is good our bullpen is bad. If pitching, offense, and 'pen is good our defense is bad.

I get the nagging feeling this might not be our century. Again.

Because he lets the runners on base score so they dont effect his ERA, only somebody elses. Face it our bullpen is not good plain and simple
