5/17 Cubs (Guzman) at Mets (TBA) 12:10 pm CT, WGN

[C.C.]

Anymore Bullpen supporters out there?

[IWU_CUBS_FAN]

We are going to get swept by the White Sox and the season is going to get even uglier from then on.

 

3 outs away from splitting a 4 game series on the road with the best team in the NL and you blow it. This is stuff that puts your season on the rocks.

 

it's a little earlier this year, but this game brings back memories of the victor diaz game.....

[David]

The worst organization in professional sports.

 

Ridiculous. Just not true.

[cheapseats]

Dempster can't get lefties out. He never has been able to. Sending Dempster in against a bunch of lefties and switch hitters = loss.

The bullpen is fine. Using Dempster against lefties isn't.

Why be accurate when you can be dramatic?

[Soriano12]

Screw you Dumpster you worthless bum.

 

Get this worthless trashbag off this team now!

[Guest]

Well, now people can continue to rag on Guzman and say he doesn't have an big league wins.

[C.C.]

Wow! This was one of those games I felt confident. This was a gimme game.

But...but he's our closer. That's what you do right? Throw your closer in the 9th no matter who's coming up. Right?

Nor can he throw strikes, never has, never will, the unfortunate fact is, save for a few rare instances, the bullpen as whole pitches behind in count. Every single one of them...

And it seems to have been that way for at least the last few years.

It's a four run lead. It was mop up work.

The only gimmie game is when you are playing the Cubs.

Pathetic.

[UMFan83]

OK, its finally time. Wood for closer.

 

 

Oh...wait..

[Outshined_One]

I leave for 15 minutes...and come back to a 6-5 final.

 

Wow.

[jersey cubs fan]

No Beltran, Reyes, or Wright. That's a good thing.

 

Until they pinch hit.

Just need to hand out some more longterm contracts to relievers Jim.

[Old Style]

How long until football season?

Ditto. Is there anywhere one can listen to the postgame online?
