8/21 Cubs (Marquis) at Giants (Lincecum) 9:15 PM CT, CSN

[Schwarber Fan]

Barring a Cubs comeback (you can stop laughing now), the highlights for this game will suck... "pick it up in the 9th with 2 outs - it's 1-0 Giants and Lincecum strikes out Derrek Lee to end the game" [end of highlights]

[TMan92]

Lincecum is going 9, no one is warming in the Giants pen.

 

Seems risky to me. Why not have your closer warm just in case?

 

the Giants pen sucks, and he's only thrown 88 pitches

 

You know he will completely stink in his next start against the Brewers.

Thank goodness I'm not at this game.

 

I can relate.

Gabe Gross... haha just bring em up and they immediately produce for the Cards and Brewers :roll:

 

both those teams suck...it's not like they're 30 games over .500 or something. quit whining...it's pathetic.

 

not whining at all - it's true...

 

see: braun, ryan, gross, ankiel

 

and all those guys are to blame for the $100 mil cubs being three games over .500.

 

Exactly. If we were in another division we'd be in much worse shape than we are now.

 

imagine the woe-is-me-ing that would be going on if the cubs actually played in a division with real teams.

 

I didn't say anything about those guys being the reason for the standings. I simply stated how annoying it is that the Cards/Brewers prospects immediately become all-stars upon reaching MLB. Add Gallardo to the list as well.

 

It's a shame Prior and Woody didn't have breakthrough years in their first season. And Z in his second. Oh, wait.

This guy reminds me of Wood and Prior. But Dusty is gone from SF so this kid's arm won't fall off.

Fake rallies are sweet.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 58-45 when they hit at least 1 double.... 6-14 when they don't

 

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Schwarber Fan]

[J.R.]

Here we go ...

[Twiggy]

Jacque's gotta bunt.. but I doubt he can

 

I was thinking the same exact thing, and now he singles to left field. C'mon Lee and Ramirez.

[E.J.]

Just put the ball in play up the middle somewhere Lee. I will even take a double play.

[synergy]

watch d.lee strikeout and ramirez hit into a dp.

[CraziCub]

[Alfonso Soriano]

FAKE RALLY TIME

[Butterscup1679666578]

The fake rally has begun.

 

It's going to be of epic proportions this time too.
