Re: 5/12 Fathers (Wolf) @ Cubs (Marquis) 7:05 CSNC

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Wait, the Padres are winning? That's impossible though, everybody was saying they are unable to score runs and this is an easy win with a Z vs. Wolf matchup. I'm confused.

 

70/30 means sometimes 30 hits.

[illiniguy]

christ. jim edmonds. someone just send a memo to lou and jim with Pie's stats since he worked with lou. this is [expletive]. we need to play felix. how long until we resign jeff blauser to back up at short? so we can get ronny down to AAA.

Why would they want to look at stats? They watch the games. That's all that matters.

Iowa is going to be loaded in about a week.

 

By my count, they'd have our best CFer, two of our best five starters and several relievers better than Chad Fox.

just wait at some point this year they will have our best ss.

Zambrano always melts down against the worst hitters, often the pitchers

 

Ugh, can we please win a series against a bad team that isn't the pirates?

[Flames24Rulz]

We're not seriously going to lose to Randy Wolf and the Padres are we?

 

There's still a lot of time left, but it seriously wouldn't surprise me. Come on guys, these are still the Cubs.

[AFCubsFan]

I blame the current score on the Edmonds rumor. It must have leaked to the players and that is why they look so lackluster tonight.

[CoolHandLuke]

Just thought I'd give everyone here the latest on Edmonds:

Sorry

 

Am I the only one who reads this as just Gordon's guess? I mean he seems to have no more info that Bruce had in his blog, he just spins it as if it's a done deal.

It might just be a guess, but the fact remains. Our gm is bad enough to do this.

 

No doubt about that. I haven't been a fan of Hendry in quite some time.

[CubsGM]

We're not seriously going to lose to Randy Wolf and the Padres are we?

 

Maybe. But honestly, it's still pretty much a coin flip.

More encouraging than the poster that said the Cubs have a 70% chance of winning this one the highest odds he can give out. Oh, wasn't that you?

[splintersag]

And Jody Gerut has become a new Cub killer, after two at-bats. He's mad we got rid of him, and he wants revenge!

Sorry

 

Sweet, all part of the Cubs master plan to have the best AAA team of all time.

[Schwarber Fan]

K guys, here's the video of Z losing his no-no in 2003:

 

Warning: There is no audio and the quality isn't the best, but I think it's still clear he was out...

[Roast]

Hahaha, Z is pissed so he rips one himself.

[Flames24Rulz]

Nicely done Z.

[VanceJergins]

huh? They are horrible at scoring runs and this should be an easy win...what in the world is your point? That because we're losing right now that everyone who said this should be an easy win doesn't know what they're talking about?

[CoolHandLuke]

Zambranowned.

[inari]

I thought that was gone.

[Anomalied]

This reminds me of every Cubs game last season. They jump out to an early lead, but are quietly dominated by a mediocre lefty the rest of the way. Meanwhile, the other team chips away and eventually pulls ahead. The Cubs manage to stage a rally late in the game, but fail to score in the most excruciating way possible.

 

But hopefully because I said that they'll prove me wrong and come from behind again. And look, a double by Z as I type this. Good start.

[bcl412]

So close Z. I'll take the double though

Yep.

 

With Zambrano's leadoff double, I give a slight edge to the Cubs.

[haubrich91]

I love when Zambrano gets extra base hits.

[illiniguy]

damn, thought fergie was getting passed.

[Careless]

Zambrano always melts down against the worst hitters, often the pitchers

Have you seen the pirates record against teams other than the Cubs? 18-12!

[bcruise]

I love when teams pitch to Zambrano like he's just another pitcher flailing at the ball. :lol:

[Roast]

YES!

[haubrich91]

YES!!!!!!!

ALFONSO!

[Flames24Rulz]

SORIANO!!!
