7/18 Giants (Cain) at CUBS (Big Z), 1:20 PM CT, WGN

[bc2k]

Jesus, what kind of lineup is that? We can't give Rammy a day off during Lee's suspension.

 

+1 What's Lou's reasoning?

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Jesus, what kind of lineup is that? We can't give Rammy a day off during Lee's suspension.

 

The decision to give Rami the day off had already been made prior to yesterday's game.

 

It's not like there's some rule that says you have to stick by such decisions. You have to adapt to what else is going on.

 

I agree 100%. Screw the future health of our all star third baseman. Todays game will decide the penant.

 

Or you could wait 1-2 days so Floyd gets back and we're no longer facing one of the best starters in the NL.

[B]

Go Cubs, Beat the VaGiants.

[inari]

Does anyone know where to get those "it's gonna happen" shirts? I'm already assuming 75% of the people here hate them, but I like em.

[98navigator]

Someone is trying to make big money on "It's Gonna Happen." The t-shirts, professionally made signs, and blue wrist bands (I read that someone sent DeRo a box of them).

You will be without the Lee/Ramirez combo for at least 1 day during Derrek's suspension. You can't put off his rest day until it is over.

 

Why? He had 4 days off, and has now played 5 straight days. 5 more makes it 10. Are we really unwilling to let Ramirez play in 10 straight?

[Flames24Rulz]

My God, stop doing that.

[bcruise]

Please don't EVER do that again Z!!!

[Alfonso Soriano]

Seasons OVer.

[E.J.]

One of these days Z is going to break something in his hand when he does that. I really, really wish he'd stop.

[98navigator]

Stop doing that Z!

[BeerHere]

Please don't EVER do that again Z!!!

 

What did he do?

[inari]

Note to Cubs pitchers: Stop falling behind these Giants hitters and they probably won't hit it.

[cubweiser03]

He will never stop doing that!

[Flames24Rulz]

Zambrano strikes out Lewis.

[bcruise]

Please don't EVER do that again Z!!!

 

What did he do?

 

Tried to grab a comebacker line drive with his pitching hand. Again.

[98navigator]

Please don't EVER do that again Z!!!

 

What did he do?

 

Stopped a linedrive with his pitching hand. :x

[Flames24Rulz]

Ugh, double for Winn.
