Hart is awesome.

[weis21]

Can we please just let Ron sing the song from now on?

[beersoakedivy]

If we keep the score as is we have a chance here.

 

They will either lose by one or tie it and lose in the ninth. They always find a way to lose rather than win.

[Sosa21MVP]

I <3 Hart

Can we please just let Ron sing the song from now on?

My thoughts exactly.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are seeing 3.99 pitches per plate appearance..... compared to 3.74 last year and 3.68 in '06 and 3.61 in '05

 

 

Go CUBS !!

In case anyone wants to replace Marquis, Sean Marshall threw 3 perfect innings yesterday for Iowa with 6 K. Sean Gallagher has given up 1 ER through 4 today and has 5 K.

 

Oh, and Lieber > Marquis too.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Theriot walked

[Schwarber Fan]

Alright... leadoff man on base

I'm for DFA'ing Marquis. Either one is a better option that Marqueef.

Fontenot, pinch hitting for Hart, grounded an IF single to shallow left field , Theriot to second
