Wow. The Cubs are getting 2-hit by Byung-Hyun Kim. This is hilarious.

 

Why?

 

Why is it hilarious? The Cubs suck so bad it's funny.

This is what makes this team bad (well this and the failures of the bullpen) In other words, blame Lou all you want but...

 

This year alone the Cubs have lost to Mark Redman, his only good start and he has subsequently been released. They have lost to Masset in a game it was hoped he would get through four innings, he went at least 6. And so far Kim, coming in with at 7+ ERA.

 

Good teams? Take care of Masset to complete the sweep against the White Sox giving them momentum going on a road trip. Winning against a bum to take a series against a league leading team (Braves). And entering a series against the Marlins? Wail on the guy, get into the bullpen early and get the team to be at a disadvantage for the rest of the series.

 

I'm already sick of the crying about Piniella. The team he was handed is playing lousy baseball, can't hit well and certainly can't pitch well out of the bullpen.

 

Let these pitchers get themselves in trouble once in a while. No patience at all.

And Im already sick of all the ass kissing of Lou no matter how many times he puts his team in a terrible position by one of his terrible moves. Nobody here has said its 100 percent Lous fault, the players get alot of the blame as well, but Lou definatly hasnt helped this team.

There's nothing Lou can do.

 

The talent level on this team is very, very poor.

 

Yes there is plenty Lou can do. The talent level is not very very poor. We have the talent to win this division.

Do we? For the love of Christ J.J. Hardy has more homers than both Lee and Soraino together. We, like every year, have overrated talent. I am sure we are a beast again on nintendo.

Ass kissing? Where? So which manager is the guy that manages his bullpen so well? And if it's Randolph or Black this year, it's pretty easy to manage a bullpen that doesn't give anything up. Give a guy a terrible team and he gets a terrible team.

Myth.

 

Cause you say so? The guys there when putting up numbers along with their career numbers are talented enough to win this division.

There's plenty of talent on the team, but dumb players or dumb playing with talent don't equal wins.
