5/20 Sox (Masset) v. Cubs (Z) 1:20CT CSN, WGN & WGN 720

[SABR Gamer]

carlos has been about as consistent as Rex Grossman this year

[Have a seat, Neifi]

FYI the Twinkies have jumped out to a 2-0 lead over the Brew Crew...would be great if Z could settle down and give us a chance to shave another game off that lead.

[weis21]

great play by ryan, saved 1 maybe 2 runs.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 4-8 when the opponent executes a sac bunt.... 16-13 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Roast]

move, fans.

[genbar]

look at these wahoos in the batter's eye

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

It must be a Cubs conspiracy. Purposely having those Cub fans sit there.

[weis21]

what idiots

[Flames24Rulz]

Wow, what a bunch of idiots.

[RichHillIsABeast]

Good job, morans. Move.

[Roast]

[InconspicuousZ28]

Really wish I had CSN here.....have to listen to these 2 idiots on WGN instead.

[Roast]

Twins up 4-0 on Milwaukee. Astros down 4-1 to the Rangers. We gotta win this one.

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

I'm shocked that Harrelson talks up Z as much as he does. He did the dame last year. He has some serious man love for Z.

[illiniguy]

Let's makes this kid throw strikes, he will walk us right back ahead. Although most of our guys won't take the walk.

[CDBears1259]

Really wish I had CSN here.....have to listen to these 2 idiots on WGN instead.

Preach it brotha.

[anemic offense]

That's what you get for not going after Konerko like you should.

 

I don't know how you can be mad at Z for that. He threw two or three pitches that anyone else in baseball would have swung and missed at.

 

That's b/c he was going for the K and not the out like he always does.

 

Ever since Z became more of a "strikeout" pitcher, his effectiveness has decreased accordingly. He doesn't as deep into games as he used to, his groundball to fyball ratio has plummeted, and he has already given up more homers this year than he did the entire '04 (??) season.

 

He used to be able to negate the walks by giving up few homers and enducing many a double play. Now it just doesn't happen. I wish we had that old Z back.

im watching the cubs CSN broadcast so i didnt hear him, what did he say?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Jones grounded out to first, unassisted

[Outshined_One]

Great going, Jock.

[Roast]

way to take some pitches, Jones.

[anemic offense]

I was just about to rail on Jones for swining at that, but it was right down the pipe.
