9/29 Champs at Reds

Our pitching can stop Philly's offense - I'm not convinced our offense can hit Arizona's or San Diego's pitching. That's why I want Philly.

 

Bold Prediction. We are going to sweep Arizona! You heard it hear first. The series won't even be close.

Cheers. :) I hope you're right.

Monroe will probably get a spot on the playoff roster, but he's done absolutely nothing to deserve it.

 

I dont think he has exactly been a failure either.. I have no problem having him on the roster.

 

Monroe's numbers since coming to the Cubs:

 

.213/.302/.362/.664

that would be bittersweet considering I have tickets to game 4.

[E.J.]

Everyone stand.

Uno mas!

I'm not intimidated by Arizona's pitching outside of Webb. Davis and Owings are both about Marquis-level. And the way Zambrano's been going I'd like our chances with a Webb/Zambrano matchup.

The Phillies top hitters will do wonders against curveball lefties, unless Hill and Lilly are on, they'll really have a hard time. And if Marquis isn't on, his belt-high sinker is really meaty to those bats. I'd rather see the two West teams or the Mets.

I just get this feeling. Just like I knew the Cubs would close it out last night. I have a better feel for this team then the 2003 team for whatever reason.

Ugh. They just showed Garvey homer on the SD/Mil broadcast. :x

 

I went to a Dodger game 2 days ago where they honored him (and Dusty) for being part of a Dodger team in teh 1970s that had 4 guys hit 30 HRs each. I booed Dusty and Garvey vociferously.

I wouldn't mind the Mets either, but they're pretty much out of the question at this point.

And I know Davis and Owings aren't that good, but they sure own us. Especially Davis.

[Flames24Rulz]

Cubs win!

[Omar]

Phillips out in RF and...

 

CUBS WIN! CUBS WIN! CUBS WIN!

[E.J.]

Cubs win. 1-hitter for the cubs pitchers. Nice.

[DiamondMind]

Reds just came out and laid an egg on the infield grass for that game

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS WIN !! CUBS WIN !! CUBS WIN !!

We finally beat Harang. Yay!

 

So the key is trot out our bench players. Who would've thunk it.

[Andy]

One-hitter! Nice! :)

[Omar]

One-hitter! Nice! :)

 

Yep. Damn Buck Coats.

Again: THANK GOD WE DON'T PLAY FLORIDA AGAIN THIS YEAR!!!

 

This feels sooooo much better.

And I don't want to go up against Cole Hamels twice in a 5-game series.

That has a funny way of turning around in the playoffs.

[mhuber92211]

[E.J.]

Howard homers. Phils only down 4-2.
