Re: 5/4 Cubs (Marquis) @ Cardinals (Wellemeyer) 7:05pm CDT, ESPN

[Careless]

I can't believe we only got one [expletive] run from bases loaded and none out with the heart of the order coming up. That sucks donkey penises.

remember when we pulled the 1 in 100 of not scoring any runs in that situation 4 times in a row?

 

edit: screwed the number up by a ridiculous degree

awesome out :lol:

[ChiCubsFan]

morgan is whining about a play where cedeno would have been thrown out easily even if it was johnny damon in left field

 

You couldn't possibly be more wrong.

 

and you couldn't possibly be more wrong about sending home a runner home with no outs, the middle of the lineup coming up, and down three runs.

 

The LF was conceiving the run. It was an easy call. Luckily Fukudome at least got one run in, but that could have easily turned in to no runs. When you are down three you need to get every run you can.

 

true. you need three runs, in fact!

 

So because you need 3 runs, you should not take 1 that is being given to you? I dont get it. If the LF is charging the ball hard to make a throw to the plate, then I agree, don't risk it. But he was giving you the run. Take it when you can, because you never know what will happen.

 

I'm done talking about this. Soto and Cedeno have cannons.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS have not allowed a stolen base in their last 8 games

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[E.J.]

Haha. Nice hit Molina.

[minnesotacubsfan]

lol

[CubsGM]

Good inning Gallagher!

[Butterscup1679666578]

Gallagher for rotation.

[illiniguy]

Yeah Gallagher is no Marquis.

[Rumbach]

I can only imagine where this team would be minus Soto and Fukudome...

[TruffleShuffle]

"TLR isn't going to wait around, he's going to make something happen"

 

make something happen = run into outs

[Flames24Rulz]

Gallagher for rotation.

 

This.

[bcl412]

My roommate is arguing that Lou has done nothing outrageously wrong this season.

 

Can you guys help me think of examples?

 

 

Marquis is still in the rotation....

 

...while Rich Hill is in Iowa

 

Sean Marshall didn't make the team out of camp, then became a loogy.

 

Even with a place to play Fontenot played over Cedeno. Marmol plays in blowouts only. Sucking Wurtz comes in with bases loaded and no one out.

Kevin Hart was used in a key game within one run.

[Laura]

hahahah I love Gallagher

[WTFCUBS]

Good to see the galleon with a nice inning.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 0-7 when they trail by 2 runs or more at the end of 7 innings.

 

Go CUBS!!

Except Lilly and Marquis were pitching like All-Stars?
