OMFG DONT STEAL BASES THERIOT YOU SUCK AT IT

 

he doesn't actually.

 

He does, actually.

He's 7 for 13 on the season. You can't win this battle Truff.

 

oh okay so in that case, are we also in agreement that rich hill and ted lilly are terrible pitchers and alfonso soriano is one of the worst hitters in baseball?

[BigSlick]

3 hits off Wellemeyer in 5 innings, kinda sad.

 

Can we please knock the Cardinals bullpen?

[17 Seconds]

The freaking hell of it is we never do that on the Kendalls of the world, but for some reason everyone wants to prove they can run on Yadier. It's driving me freaking insane how damn stupid we are and it's going to cost us the division.

I really hate the tired cliche of people saying a team didn't deserve a win or a playoff appearance or something, however

 

If this team keeps playing like this, they deserve nothing and will almost certainly take 3rd place.

 

So why is Theriot in your sig? He's hands down the dumbest player on this team right now.

[bhogg]

how long before joe morgan's "there's no such thing as a check swing" speech?

 

 

probably the only thing that Joe Morgan and I agree on.

Ted Lilly is 2-0 in his last 3 starts, he is turning the corner.

Soriano on the other hand.....

He was horrible at stealing in the minors, too.

[minnesotacubsfan]

[Flames24Rulz]

Hell freezes over as Marquis gets a 1-2-3 inning.

[WTFCUBS]

Soto due up, here comes runs.

[genbar]

what's aram's status? i mean, he was hit on the hand a couple of days ago and no one has mentioned it on this board yet. could he go on the dl?

 

Nah, I assume he's just sitting out day-to-day.... there's no say about DLville

[TruffleShuffle]

also bob howry should be released

[Magnetic Curses]

ahem, does aram even exist or was he just a figment of my imag8ination?

[bcl412]

I want three runs and than have the bull pen hold onto the lead. Is that too much to ask

[CubsGM]

DeRosa (Ground out to SS/3B)

Soto (Double)

Fontenot (Single, Soto to 3rd)

Not Cedeno (K)

Soriano (K)

Hell freezes over as Marquis gets a 1-2-3 inning.

 

Of course he's gonna pitch decent now, we're losing.

[Andy]

ahem, does aram even exist or was he just a figment of my imag8ination?

Likely back tomorrow.

[cubscausestress]

i was told earlier in the thread that they say there's a good chance he plays tomorrow.

[mhuber92211]

What cracks me up is that all this blow up for Theriot being called out but in reality he was safe. If the call was right, would the blow up be on Theriot? Nope. Let's redirect our anger here folks and not use it as an excuse to continue the tirade on Theriot.

1. I like the image
