[OleMissCub]

so freaking pitiful. Some scrub is going to dominate us, as usual.

[Omar]

lol at Bob

 

The offense really looks "unglued" thus far.

[B]

I would rather see them bring up the entire AAA squad than watch this despicable bunch of slacker scumbags.

 

I have been watching baseball for 35 years and I have never seen a worse baseball team.

 

can we just rename you eyeroll? :eyeroll:

 

:roll:

Lilly singled to left field

 

Fred, your dedication to duty in the face of adversity is admirable. A little loony, but admirable!

 

Yup, that's me !! Admirable & looney !!

[Omar]

Lifetime AL pitcher Ted Lilly is the only one to get a hit. Pathetic.

But we have a lot of talent, right?

[Irrelevant Dude]

Soriano getting some well-deserved boos.

The boos are well-deserved, but shouldn't be directed at Soriano. Hendry is the one at fault here...

[Monco]

Sorianos 3rd in all star voting

[Fred Hornkohl]

Cabrera grounded out to third, 5-3

You're just a post padder...it's alright to admit it.

[Irrelevant Dude]

But we have a lot of talent, right?

It's there, just wait until we explode for 3 runs in the bottom of the 9th!

[abuck1220]

But we have a lot of talent, right?

 

as long as you say it, it's true.

 

the bullpen is a strength and soriano's one of the best players in the game. done and done.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Willingham grounded out to short, 6-3

[abuck1220]

mitre's got cramps...send him to the pen.

[Jon]

Uh oh. Mitre's gonna get demoted to the bullpen.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Hermida singled to center field

Soriano is 3rd best on this team to JJ and Izturis, but you're close enough.

Yeah, there's that, too..... but look who's talking !!! :wink:

[Irrelevant Dude]

What are they talking about? Cramps caused by bed sheets being too tight? I can't say I've ever had that happen before.

[abuck1220]

mitre's got cramps...send him to the pen.

 

brenly gets cramps in his feet while in bed. does that qualify him for the bullpen?

[YearofDaCubs]

That team meeting really jump started the offense today. They should have them everyday.

[B]

mitre's got cramps...send him to the pen.

Tell him to take 2 midol and call me in the morning. :wink:

Guilt as charged...but it's not all bad is it? There has to be some way to fight the evil in CR.
