7/5 Other Games

[BleacherBadger]

Probably pitchers Cubs will see:

Paul Maholm: 4-11, 4.74

Van Benshoten: 0-2, 4.35 in 4 games

Shane Youman: 1-0, 3.00 in 1 game. In that game, he gave up 8 hits in 6 innings, the other team only plated 2 of them though.

 

I can't get that afraid of that pitching staff. Except for last game, with the way the Cubs have been hitting, should be a nice finish to the first half of the season.

[PrimeTime]

Please win tonight Cubs..4 1/2 back would be sweeeeet going into Pittsburgh

[CubmanPi]

Damian Miller guns down Bautista trying to steal second. 2 out, none on.

Quoted because every Cub fan is probably thinking the exact same thing :P

I'm not too worried. We have our top 3 pitchers (when they are on) going this weekend with Z going up against Youman. My goal is to keep pace with the Brewers this weekend. (2 out of 3 minimum)

Barrett just hit an RBI double vs the Marlins.

I'm not afraid of those three pitchers, but they aren't laughably bad either, so they still have a decent chance of posting no-hitters, considering the Cubs' offense the last 16 innings. Also, the offense was consistently good against Brewers pitching that isn't exactly a joke, so I'm definitely not ready to mark down a series win for the Cubs over the weekend.

Hold that lead, Buccos!

Barrett just hit an RBI double vs the Marlins.

 

Bowen's still way better. :wink:

[CubmanPi]

8th inning over, no runs for the Bucs. Still 6-3.

[killthegoat06]

Who's Pitt's closer?

[CubmanPi]

Barrett just hit an RBI double vs the Marlins.

 

Bowen's still way better. :wink:

I'm getting progressively more bitter about that trade. I was bummed the day I saw it on the headlines, and it's continuously pissing me off with each passing day.

And each passing out that sends Bowen's Cubs BA that much lower than .050

Who's Pitt's closer?

 

Who is half of Pittsburgh's team?

[kujay]

Who's Pitt's closer?

 

Well, today it appears to be Matt Capps.

I kept thinking that they were giving a nickname for Chris Capuano earlier in the series. They turned out not to be, and I cleaned the egg from my face.

[otis89]

I think you guys are forgetting that Maholm is a lefty. That's an automatic loss for the Cubs.

[kujay]

Leadoff 1B for Jenkins. :?

 

Prince hanging out on bench.

[JWCUB]

Jenkins leadoff single.

[Balsa]

It's been Matt Capps since June, when they put Salomon Torres on the DL.

 

A move by the way, for which he is filing a grievance as he thinks they are keeping him on there too long.

[CubmanPi]

Mench lines out hard to right, good jump on the ball by Nady. Pitt's defense is unreal.

[kujay]

1 out. If tying run comes to plate, it'll be Fielder. Don't like that.

[JWCUB]

Mench flyout. 1 down

[kujay]

DP, game over!

 

Thanks Pitt!

I miss Barrett.
