6/29 Brewers (Gallardo) vs CUBS (Hill), 1:20p, WGN-TV, XM188

much like zambrano was hurt earlier this year...

 

If anyone could explain what the hell was wrong with him besides just being insane, I'll give them a million dollars.

 

I don't want anyone to get defensive...I'm just asking questions.

 

sometimes good pitchers just go into slumps. Batters do the same thing. I'm not sure why everyone assumes that a pitcher is hurt or mentally weak just because he has a string of poor starts.

Well with Z, his velocity was down.

Okay, good teams hoping to make the playoffs would capitalize off a leadoff walk and use it to start cutting into the deficit. Let's see what this team does with it.

 

 

Completely agree. Good teams capitalize on mistakes.

ARAm splits the gap while breaking the bat.

cmon!

[soapy]

Nothing is over!!

[Ding Dong Johnson]

they'll find a way to screw this up

[soccer10k]

How will the Cubs blow this?

 

I'll say pop up in the infield, walk, DP.

[Handlebar McSkullet]

come on clifford

Billy Barty With A Goiter should not ever be behind the plate calling a Cubs game...period, exclamation point, end quote. He has been known to show bias against the Cubs his whole career. And he especially shouldn't be umping a Cub game when his hometown Brewers are the opposition!

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

Way to go Aram!

 

Don't screw this opportunity up Cubs!

[CubmanPi]

Alright now we're doing something.

So far we're just standing with RISP and none out. I've seen this one before, so hopefully there's a little more to this inning.

Where did I say he was "mentally weak?"

 

I don't think it's crazy to be worried about Cubs pitchers getting hurt. If he's not, fantastic. I'm just tossing it out there because we've seen this happen all too often in recent years.
