Whew, breathing room!

[weatherdood]

CUBS WIN!

[IowaCubsFan]

Can I breathe now?

[anabiono]

yeah baby

[Soul]

Sleep well tonight Cubbie fans.

 

We haven't been playing good baseball but have still built up a little breathing room.

 

Christ one damn winning streak would put this thing away. ONE.

Milwaukee Brewers 1, Ned Yost sucking 2. Have fun in the playoffs guys, no way this joker can manage a playoff team.

 

How on earth do you leave in a career suck vs righties hitter in that situation.

[SouthSideRyan]

I love Ryan Dempster.

 

Love him.

I love Marmol. You know the good pitcher.

 

I was really just doing it to try and be (not really very) clever.

 

But yeah, Dempster's a pretty good closer.

[IowaCubsFan]

And this is why you don't IBB Prince Fielder.

 

It was still the right move. Fielder friggin kills us.

 

We'd have won the NLCS had we IBB'ed Pudge a few more times.

 

CUBS WIN! CUBS WIN!!!

 

Or not pitched him low and away every single AB. 8-)

That goes under the heading of "Mitch Williams Save"

 

aka "The Rod Beck Special"

aka "The Joe Borowski Happy Fun Time Inning"

or have used a righty to face Lenny Harris in game one instead of facing Lowell. Thanks Dusty.

Umm, I think StL is 3 back they lost.

[CubsBears29]

Sorry everyone, suffered a "brain fell out bottom" moment there in my excitement.

 

Thanks HM for the fix.

[Guancous]

This team is ridonkulous. I was happy with the 30 game improvement between seasons. I hardly expected the rest of the division to fall back to us. Excellent. No matter what happens, this season has been a success.

[Anomalied]

Against Wandy tomorrow, I'm expecting to see...

 

1. Ryan Theriot (SS)

2. Jason Kendall ©

3. Derrek Lee (1B)

4. Aramis Ramirez (3B)

5. Craig Monroe (RF)

How on earth do you leave in a career suck vs righties hitter in that situation.

 

I meant to point that out. Why is Geoff Jenkins sitting on the bench there.

 

And this division is far from over Ender. And on the bright side for you guys, if you don't make it, Yost has to be gone.

[TruffleShuffle]

hooray winning
