8/29 Cubs (Zambrano) vs. Brewers (Sheets) 7:05 CT CSN

[weatherdood]

How many innings did we put the leadoff man on tonight?? Gotta be at least 5 times...maybe more??? Wasted opportunities will kill this team.

[SouthSideRyan]

Cards are losing, so we'll still have a 2 game lead with a 67-64 record. What an awesome division.

 

1.5 right?

 

Ah, forgot about the Brewers. Mentally I've already designated the Cards as the competition.

 

Don't, the Brewers are much better.

[Schwarber Fan]

Terrible game...

 

Sheets was mediocre at best, we let him off the hook

Z was in too long, lost again

Cubs left tons of guys on base

 

I've seen this movie before...

Apparently the Cubs did tonight as well.

I stand corrected.

 

Still too many wasted opportunities regardless.

Cards are losing, so we'll still have a 2 game lead with a 67-64 record. What an awesome division.

 

1.5 right?

 

Ah, forgot about the Brewers. Mentally I've already designated the Cards as the competition.

 

Don't, the Brewers are much better.

 

i still think the cardinals will finish 5+ games out.

 

Everyone on the Brewers team is having an all-world year, and they're still going to finish behind the Cards.

[IowaCubsFan]

With a bad leg Soriano better hit some dingers or he's worthless.

 

Especially at home. I'm not real big on seeing him bat leadoff either, at least with the bad leg.

that's completely not true, but it wouldn't be the craziest thing you've said in this thread.

[Ender]

Everyone on the Brewers team is having an all-world year, and they're still going to finish behind the Cards.

 

The majority of the roster is below career norms given their role. Braun obviously is playing out of his gord but for every plus on that team there is a Hall who hit 35 HR's last year and has like 12 this year or a rotation that is all having the worst year in their past 3 etc.

[weatherdood]

Not having to face Oswalt this weekend is comforting....somewhat....but does that mean we're going to get Wandy'd again?

Cause JJ Hardy doesn't scowl when he strikes out.

We get road Wandy and not home Wandy.

This game was frustrating, but if we win tomorrow all will be good again.

[E.J.]

I watched about 3 minutes of the game tonight, and I guess I'm glad I didn't watch anymore. How ridiculous is it that we got shut down by a guy coming off an injury that kept him out for over a month without any sort of rehab assignment? Nice job Cobs.

Stuff like that never happens to the Cubs.

All that matters is that the Cubs win tomrrow.
