8/5 Mets(Glavine) @ Cubs(Marquis) 7:05 P.M. CT ESPN

[Wilson A2000]

Pagan didn't know how many outs there were a few innings ago. Jones, Pagan, and Soriano have no baseball instincts.

[USSoccer]

Nice to see all our flaws being exposed on national TV.

 

Marquis has been awful for 6 weeks, our OF completely sucks, our offense is inept against LHP and our trainers are beyond bad.

counting to three is a baseball instinct? ;)

The ivy on the wall is pretty though.

[Alfonso Soriano]

This is pathetic.

Good night all.

[Soul]

Game over. Thank God the Phils came back.

[illiniguy]

derosa not playing a great of tonight.

Yeah, aside from the fact that he hasn't.

 

Damn it DeRosa, what the hell

[TruffleShuffle]

another great pitch by marquis... man he makes a lot of mistakes

[OleMissCub]

Can we get on OF that can play some defense???

 

Mr. Pie better be heading to the airport.

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

Is there anything else on TV?

[InconspicuousZ28]

Game over.

 

Second-Half Marquis has taken over.

[USSoccer]

So that's two runs Pagan's crap defense has cost us in a game where Glavine's getting 4 inches either way, and we already know we suck against LHP.

 

Awesome. Just awesome.

 

can't really blame Pagan for the second one; the run was scoring from first on that ball too.

 

We would have at least had a chance. Castillo doesn't run as well as he used to. Having him at 1st would have made a big difference.

 

That and it's a stupid, inexusable play to dog it on a fly ball. He acted like no one was on, took a crow hop, and hitched his throw.

[kente777]

I don't mean to quench the recent enthusiasm, but we've got too many holes on this team. Those who are predicting we'll win this division by 5 plus games may be very surprised.

[cubbieblue12]

screw this team.

[98navigator]

That ball probably should have been caught by DeRo. Get this out here Marquis and it's only a 3 run deficit. That's certainly not insurmountable.

What was his July ERA again? 6?

 

Yeah, he's awesome.

[Omar]

Marquis can still get a quality start. Its the offense we need to worry about.

[The Voice of Reason]

Worst defensive outfield in baseball.

 

Congrats to Glavine on # 300.

[Alfonso Soriano]

Once again..

This is why we needed to make a trade folks.

Thanks triple chinned Jim.

for the cubs it is.

haven't heard anyone say five games. in fact, I think just about everyone here thinks we have holes -- look at the game threads :)

[sherwood921]

Is there anything else on TV?

 

Entourage is on at 9

5 games, 10 games or 1 game, it really doesn't matter.

[CyHawk_Cub]

Our powerful offense will come back in this one... [shakes head wildly] Oh wait, it's 2007, not 1998.
