8/6 Cubs(Hill) @ Astros(Rodriguez) 7:05 P.M. CT CSN

[Omar]

Astros win.

[Alfonso Soriano]

WOO GO CUBS

[E.J.]

Awesome game Cobs.

[98navigator]

It's obvious that they've needed them because their pitching staff isn't as good as the Cubs'. I'm not saying I wouldn't want the Cubs to hit more homers I just think using the Brewers as an example for so called Cubs deficiencies is silly. The both have 52 losses and the Cubs have played 2 fewer games.

 

The person used the Brewers as an example because he was using specific players. Tell me you wouldn't rather have Braun and Fielder's production on this team.

 

That's not the point I'm making; I'm not looking at it theoretically. Yes, I'd like that kind of power from two Cubs players but looking at it the way things currently stand between the teams I don't see the extra homers that the Brewers hit as an advantage. It looks to me like they've needed just about every one of them to maintain their one game lead.

 

I fully understand that if the Cubs had 152 homers they'd probably be leading the division by several games but, as things stand they are tied in losses.

 

Yuck, that sucks

[PrimeTime]

YOU GOT MUNSONED!!! YOU FREKAIN SUCK WUERTZ GO TO HELL

[TMan92]

A leadoff walk scored. Unbelievable. What a joke.

[Schwarber Fan]

I <3 our bullpen

[CDBears1259]

EXPLELITIVES GALORE!!!!!

[Omar]

If we lose to a guy name "munson" it would be perfect irony.

 

and it is.

[badger1679666666]

When will this team learn that lead-off walks will ALWAYS kill you?

[Irrelevant Dude]

This division is there for the taking, and we're not taking advantage of it. This is so frustrating.

[PrimeTime]

had to guy down 0-2..and you walk him..you deserve it you scrub

[Flames24Rulz]

This team has problems, especially on offense.

 

What an awful, awful game.

[Magnetic Curses]

if you can;t hit home runs or take walks, you can't win.

[Garwilly]

Well at least "Alfonso Soriano" is going to be banned.

[abuck1220]

nice offense you've put together, hendry. i can't wait til you're fired.

[C.C.]

We got Munson(ed)! How flippin' funny!

[TMan92]

I <3 our bullpen

 

Our offense stinks and with first base open why do you make that pitch.

[soccer10k]

I <3 our bullpen

 

The offense put up 1 run against Wandy Rodriguez in 8 innings. Place your blame there.

[Mizzou]

Wuertz is not as good as people make him out to be.

 

That said, if we would have scored more than one run tonight, it would be moot for the moment.

[badger1679666666]

Lou, Wood CAN pitch back to back days.

[Schwarber Fan]

After watching tonight's game, I can't believe we're 1.0 GB of first place.

[sherwood921]

Guess that answers my question as to why Wuertz hasn't pitched in close situations lately.

[Handlebar McSkullet]

Well at least "Alfonso Soriano" is going to be banned.

 

?? what did he do?

[Mizzou]

Well at least "Alfonso Soriano" is going to be banned.

Really? What for? Either way... awesome!
