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

[anabiono]

How about a HR from lee? Just one?

His lack of homers are starting to get frustrating.

 

Extremely frustrating very quickly.

 

I am not worried. Lee is still hitting a lot of line drives has 26 double and a .900+ OPS. If the doubles were down too, I would be more concerned, but he is stroking it, I think the homers will come.

 

exactly...i think that after the break...he will start grooving the long ball...if he doesn't finish with more at least 5 more homers in the second half than he had in the first half...i will eat my hat

[moorecg]

i am equally frightened and absolutely ecstatic for this series!!!

 

bring on the yankees...err...i mean brewers!!!

 

it is game time...it may have taken a while but the cubs are finally waking up and rearing their ugly heads!!!

 

I think what you mean to say is they have finally pulled them out of a certain body part...

i can go along with that...but i also think this team was a really wacky melting pot going into this season...and with lou as the head chef (everyone knows he doesn't measure his ingredients) it just took him a while to find the right recipes...and for the foods to get to know one another... :wink:

I think my clock is broken. Time is going way too slowly.

[inari]

My clock seems to think there's 60 seconds in a minute. What's up with that?

I took the worst lineup I could think of (within reason .. aram lee and sori were going to start) and posted it to see if I got a reaction. I did it too late though. 8-)

Don't you ever do that again. If the real lineup hadn't been posted right after that, I almost might've believed you.

I was just skimming through page 8 only and saw this. I was about to blow a gasket when I seen the truth. So you did get someone

Then where are you going to hit him? at the 2 spot? No....I'd rather have Fontenot there. So sorry Pie has to hit 8th. Maybe they could have moved him to 7th.
