8/25 Cubs (Lilly) @ Dbacks (Davis) 8:40CT WGN

how bout a homerun here monroe

 

Thought it had a chance...then I remembered he now plays for the Cubs as Young settled under it for an easy catch...

[BigSlick]

LOL'Z at the warning track power

 

That wasn't even good contact. I'm not unimpressed with how far he got it.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

We suck.

[Soul]

Aramis looking like crap on this trip, too, with the exception of that double in SF.

 

We really need him or Lee to click it back on against the Brewers. I hope to God Soriano can come back then.

 

I hope to God Soriano will come back and give Lee or ARam a break, rather than insisting on leading off.

[Chris24Young]

Close. The reaction by Davis gave me the assumption that Monroe sent that out.

[Lockes Eye Scar]

it takes quite a poke to get one out to CF at BOB

 

is it still called BOB?

wouldn't it have hit off that enormous wall anyway?

Eh, I guess.

he must have hit that 400 ft

I'm starting to fear that Lilly will need to be perfect to get the win, or else he will just give up some runs trying to be perfect.

[BigSlick]

I don't know whats more impressive, Chris Young's 26 home runs or his .288 on base percentage.

 

You actually have to try to not reach base as much as he could with as much power as he has.

at this rate, perfect won't be good enough.

[Andy]

Hey guys, Doug Davis doesn't throw hard. Stop swinging as if he does.

[Alfonso Soriano]

It's funny, when our pitchers do well our offense does horrible.

When our pitchers do bad our offense does horrible.

I see a trend

most impressive is that with those numbers, he is still batting leadoff.

At least we are getting hits. Usually we go down in order.

 

I think we got a good shot.

[Handlebar McSkullet]

did hudson come via trade for hillenbrand?

[CyHawk_Cub]

Great....Monroe can't count to 3 either...

[chuckywang]

First Pagan, now Monroe....why can't our outfielders count?

 

One of these days, there will be someone on base and it'll come to bite us.

or it will just continue to be comical

According to Gameday, ball 1 to Byrnes missed deep.

[Warpticon]

Well, in case anybody cares ;) a bunch of Cubs execs are in Peoria tonight watching the Chiefs play, and our boys gave them a good show, winning 6-0 and four pitchers combining to throw a no-hitter.

with these two pitchers they are playing 6-12 with a mat behind the plate.
