9/12 Cubs (Hill) @ Astros (Albers) 7:05 CST WGN-9/WGN-720

[Vanilla Ice]

Soap Drop Soap Drop. How many times has that happened this year?

[Mizzou]

Nobody on this team is even close to Kendall when it comes to executing that play.

Not even the almighty Geo Soto?

 

If he said nobody on this team is even close to Soto at throwing out baserunners would you snark to that?

I don't know what snarking means, but I don't know that I'd agree with it. Hank is pretty solid behind the plate.

[CubmanPi]

If Lou doesn't have Hill doing ridiculous amounts of bunting drills between now and his next start, then he might as well swing away.

[SouthSideRyan]

Henry Blanco is old and injured.

[UMFan83]

Who do guys hate the most on each team in the Central?

 

Brewers- Ryan Braun

Astros- Hunter Pence

Cardinals- Rick Ankiel

Reds- Josh Hamilton

Pirates- Cesar Izturis

 

Brewers - Ryan Braun

Astros - Craig Biggio

Cardinals - Jim Edmonds

Reds - Javier Valentin

Pirates - Jason Bay (for his fantasy season mostly)

I would have picked some time last night in the later innings.

As SSR alluded to, I don't think Hank is anywhere near what he was before the injury earlier this season.

 

Pleased with 2 runs that inning.

[Roast]

Damn, Soriano has looked like crap for the majority of this season.

 

fixed.
