8/7 Cubs (Marshall) @ Astros (Williams) 7:05 PM CSN

[C.C.]

103 pitches for Woody Williams.

 

Might as well be 301, he could be lobby it underhanded, still wouldn't make a difference.

 

LOL! Seriously. They couldn't hit a HR off a tee!

[illiniguy]

oh good oswalt has an ERA of 0.47 in his last three outings... maybe the cubs should just forfeit tomorrow and save zambrano for another time

 

Zambrano will go 3-3 in the 9 spot while Oswalt goes perfect against the rest of the lineup.

Hell that might be enough if he elevates one.

[abuck1220]

these are two laughably bad offenses. 7/9ths of the astro's lineup is terrible.

 

if the cubs were in a real division, they'd be five games under .500.

[E.J.]

Great, the Astros have a lefty warming up in the bullpen. More bad news for the offense.

[C.C.]

How did this entire team forget how to hit the last few days? I've never seem so much flailing away against mediocre pitching before.

 

Can't keep taking productive pieces out and continue pretending it won't eventually collapse. We reached the tipping point that's all.

 

And yet we are only a game out.

Woody is a gamer, he just better with more pitches.

Hi guys...sorry I'm late...please tell me someone has commented on Sean Marshall's inconsistency. Someone? Anyone?

[TMan92]

Marshall and Hill should go into the clubhouse and kick every position player in the nads after tonight's game.

[Schwarber Fan]

Dear Cubs, observe my sig

 

thanks

[TruffleShuffle]

this game is incredibly boring

You had to do that didn't you?

well, he hasn't even driven in a run yet, if that means anything.

[illiniguy]

This reminds me so much of 04

Dear Cubs, observe my sig

 

thanks

 

well they can do the whole first-pitch swinging thing... just not the runs

They got to have nads to kick...

[NYF]

Marshall determined to be good despite knowing he's doomed.

 

you know what gets me, dude? da Cubs can't hit soft tossing lefties, but yet trot out two such pitchers each and every week, back to back.

[CubInOK]

This reminds me so much of 04

 

Except that team hit homers.

[TruffleShuffle]

Marshall with a lead off dinger this inning.

 

and then he'll be ruled out for batting out of order

[abuck1220]

This reminds me so much of 04

 

the '04 team had a passable offense.

[C.C.]

This reminds me so much of 04

 

Reminds me more of 03.

[illiniguy]

awesome a flyball. even those are rare.

Corey Provis said the Brewers are winning but apparently the game is shut off from the rest of the internet.
