4/29 Brewers (Sheets) @ Cubs (Marquis) 7:05 CSN

[CubColtPacer]

If I looked at it right, Sheets has now tied his career high for walks allowed in a game with 6.

[TruffleShuffle]

sheets is definitely not himself. yost is an idiot for starting him and sticking with him.

[chuckywang]

Ned just wants to get Sheets the win.

Sounds like it.

[Roast]

What ever happened to Godly Fukudome?

[haubrich91]

Wow, Ramirez 0-0. 3 BB

[BigSlick]

I don't really quite understand why Geovany Soto is batting 7th

 

Do they want to make sure all his hits are meaningless and limit his at bats?

Cubs are obsessed with guys being comfortable. Comfortable means if you perform well in one spot ever, you're stuck there.

[haubrich91]

7 walks.

 

Can we please get the big hit?

Like right now?

[Little Slide Rooter]

Time for Soto to chase Sheets once and for all.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

When Sheets walks 7 thru 5, you know he's not right.

[Roast]

7 walks, 100 pitches, no one up in the pen! awesome.

[Garage Party]

Cubs need to FEAST on long relief here. At 100 pitches, Sheets has to be done after Soto. Then again, Yost.

[Roast]

And as I say that, someone gets up.

[manbearcub]

They are just now getting someone up? What a dope.

[Andy]

New career high for walks by Sheets. Against the Cubs? Weird.

 

Make it happen Geo.

he's hitting behind ARam, Fukudome and DeRosa. Unless those guys suddenly forget how to get on base, his hits aren't likely to be "meaningless"

[Guest]

That's seven walks for Sheets and 100 pitches.

[Brian]

I'm guessing double play

Here's his meaningful at-bat. He fielder's-choiced.

[BigSlick]

Bleh, c'mon Pie we could use a big time hit here

[CubsGM]

Come on Pie

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

We really need for Pie to do something here.

[Garage Party]

Okay, come on, Felix, just a single? Please?
