08/09 CUBS (Lilly) @ Colorado (Jimenez) 8:05pm, WGN TV

[CubsBears29]

For the first time in a few nights, I'm going out with friends not because the Cubs are pissing me off, but because I feel like the game is in hand. If they lose, it's my fault.

 

We're already tying the noose and slinging it up in the tree...... just something to keep in mind is all.

 

Oh, and have a good time, try not to worry about it.

 

 

:wink:

What establishment in Iowa City are you headed out to?

Go to the Q.

I'm actually out of Iowa City for the week, but if I were there, I would most certainly be heading to Vito's or Third Base. :lol:

DLee blows.

 

0-4 in 5 innings.

 

SACK HIM!!

 

 

:lol:

[IWU_CUBS_FAN]

Once again, see why this guy is leading off?

 

SO MUCH MORE consistent than Soriano... I hope he keeps the job when Overrated comes back.

 

with the fact that I am sure Soriano's quad will drop his speed for this season dramatically...i see no reason to bat him leadoff when he comes back...he needs to suck it up and bat 5th whenever he is better.

 

 

and what the crap is Lee's problem tonight...no hits?

[Prior4CyYoung]

anyone have a pitch count for Lilly? This looks like the type of game where he goes 5 or at the most 6 innings with Gallagher finishing off the game.

[Cynosure]

OMG NO RUNS THAT INNING SEAZSON OVER!!

He's just under 90, I believe.

 

Okay, I'm really leaving now. Bye everyone.
