9/27 - CUBS (Trachsel) @ Marlins (Olsen) - 3:05 PM CT WGNTV

This has been an exercise in futility.

This game or this season? Either way, I agree.

[Magnetic Curses]

Ugh, I love him but Theriot has been bloody awful

 

theriot is not very good, plain and simple. he's a backup, a utility man, not a starter.

[Exile on Waveland]

Why the flip is Theriot still batting second. Good god this is stupid.

 

Um, he's little and plays shortstop. Duh.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Do Lee, Ramirez, and DeRosa have a miracle up their sleeves? Probably not, but we can hope.

 

God I hate Trashel.

[soccer10k]

Lee

Ramirez

Derosa

Floyd

Ward for Blanco

 

We should have a shot.

 

We also should have won at least one of the first two games.

[Twiggy]

tack on two more runs for the fish with dempster in there

[Omar]

THIS IS WHAT ALWAYS HAPPENS.

<-------rooting for our only shot

[E.J.]

Cedeno should have gotten a start or two. At least he's had a hit in September.

[Guest]

Free Ronny Cedeno.

[ElectricJ]

The brooms are out in Florida. Gotta luv it :oops:

[killthegoat06]

maybe we should have used ward there. since we wont ph for any of the guys in the 9th.

 

blanco (5th)

[CubsBears29]

we have to win this game, these marlins are total pricks and are taking way too much pleasure in what is like their 60th victory.

 

Couldn't agree more.

 

Like I said about 50-60 pages ago, if Marlins played this way all year, they'd be in playoff contention too.

[BCVM22]

Demp gives up the runs, Cubs score a few and come up one short in the 9th. Book it.

[Anomalied]

Is it strange that I'm still not worried?

[soccer10k]

Great. And now we have Dempster in a non-save situation. This should be fun.

[illiniguy]

throw strikes you washed up starter.

[BigSlick]

tack on two more runs for the fish with dempster in there

 

I'm pretty convinced he's gonna let some baserunners get on, so yeah.

[Butterscup1679666578]

Dempster here to suck again.

[E.J.]

Here come the walks.

I'm gonna take a shot in the dark and guess that the Marlins are gunning for only their second sweep of the season.

[moorecg]

Dempster in a non-save situation. Great. This always works out well.

[killthegoat06]

Good job Ugly/.

You should at least be downtrodden even if you aren't worried about the Cubs making it or not.
