Sori, are you on vacation or something?

He needs Pie up here before he'll hit.

Nice play by Aramis knocking that ball down.

 

sarcasm? that was brutal. he about tripped over his feet and then overdove by about six inches.

 

???

 

Sure

 

you didn't see the replay? the ball was about two feet to his left. the field conditions probably had something to do with it, but that's a play that should have been made.

 

Didn't see the replay, but the fact that he had to leap and extend his body and still maintained getting a glove on it was good enough.

 

like i said, it was likely due to the field conditions, but he shouldn't have even had to dive. i am glad he was able to knock it down though.

 

good to see soriano's back to playing like he's never picked up a bat before.

If he didn't knock the ball down it would have brought in a run.

Plus the field is wet. I want to see you go out there.

 

:roll: weak

Was that first pitch to Soriano as much of a ball as it looked on gameday?

[WrigleyinEngland]

If we're done 'tinkering' we're done winning simple as that.

[C.C.]

Good god, someone do something! This game Sox!

[inari]

Just call the game.

[JimSorgi]

FTH Cubs???

[illiniguy]

nice inning. our offense is offensive.

[XZero771679666304]

Jesus, Soriano looked about as bad as humanly possible there. If we don't get some more offense by the deadline, we've got absolutely zero chance.

 

Soriano is very streaky. It's frustrating, but to be expected.

meh. looked borderline to me. not a terrible call, but coulda gone our way

[Schwarber Fan]

Soriano doesn't take enough pitches

Lee takes too many pitches

This game is over

[C.C.]

Any junk ball pitcher kills us...

[OleMissCub]

not a bad price on that DLee painting:

i can't believe we are getting hosed by a muppet

Arroyo could go through three innings in the time it takes Rich Hill to go through one.

 

Is that 10 in a row he's set down?

We have 2 hits.

[C.C.]

Game over!

[Schwarber Fan]

Well, if Jim doesn't see the needs of the team over the last 2 games, he is either blind or the worst GM in history, or both.

 

Ramirez and Theriot, and usually Lee are the only consistent guys in the lineup anymore.

[anabiono]

If we're done 'tinkering' we're done winning simple as that.

 

this is my biggest fear in regards to the cubs

 

one more piece and maybe another minor piece could mean all the difference

 

instead

 

we are standing pat!!!

[illiniguy]

No Lee wasn't offered a scholarship, he was told he could walk on at UNC. There is a hell of a difference.

[cubweiser03]

bonds goes yard to deep lcf

[soccer10k]

Just call the game.

 

At least that would save our pen.
