4/7 Cubs (Lilly) at Pirates (Gorzelanny), 12:30 PM CT, WGN

[Rob]

I like the patience.

[erik316wttn]

Ladies and gentlemen, I present you "Meek."

 

I feel bad for whoever has this guy on their fantasy team. Actually, I don't.

 

He'll inheirit the earth one day, according to some big long book.

[bukie]

Hah, the Cubs actually have no hits this inning. 5 walks.

[bcl412]

It's Geovany Soto time

 

Geovany Soto, Geovany Soto, Geovany Soto with a baseball bat

 

I hate myself a lot for laughing at this

[erik316wttn]

Ball 3 to Geo.

 

Sit dead red on a fastball here, but I gotta think he's taking here.

[TBone]

Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

 

Amen

[Post Count Padder]

OHHHH

Ladies and gentlemen, I present you "Meek."

 

I feel bad for whoever has this guy on their fantasy team. Actually, I don't.

Who the hell is "Meek" and why would anyone have them on their fantasy team?

[ToupeeOnFire]

Sympathy strike.

[cheapseats]

That was not a strike.

[David]

It's Geovany Soto time

 

Geovany Soto, Geovany Soto, Geovany Soto with a baseball bat

 

I hate myself a lot for laughing at this

 

It just came to me...

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

The Pirates should have known better than to trust a rule five guy to come in and get it done.

[Post Count Padder]

That ends it. Let's finish this game

[illiniguy]

Dangit Geo he was giving you an RBI walk.

[bukie]

Evan Meek - 36 pitches, 11 strikes, 25 balls.

[E.J.]

Crap. Guess Marmol is coming in. He won't have an arm by June.

[bcl412]

That was not a strike.

 

I think the Ump wants to go home

[98navigator]

That was ball four Geo. Oh well. Hold 'em and escape with the win.

[Butterscup1679666578]

Lets go Marmol, 1-2-3 and lets get out of here.

[C.C.]

I would've liked a couple of more...

[rickrolled]

10 walks for the Cubs? whens the last time that happened?

[erik316wttn]

Crap. Guess Marmol is coming in. He won't have an arm by June.

 

Hopefully this is a quick inning.

 

My dog is dying to go for her walk. We're going out the door as soon as the last out is made.

[David]

Geo's start is reminding me of Kevin Orie's start in like 1998. I remember him absolutely crushing a lot of balls in the first couple weeks that could've wound up HR if the wind wasn't blowing in hard, and he never really put it together the rest of the season.

 

That said, Geovany Soto >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Kevin Orie

[BeerHere]

19 walks in this game

[ToupeeOnFire]

Dangit Geo he was giving you an RBI walk.

Unfortunately, the ump took it away from him.
