5/16 - Pirates (Gorzelanny) @ Cubs (Gallagher) 1:20PM WGN

This is why you take the bad with the good. The guy can absolutely put a team on his back and carry them. Although this team doesn't really need to be carried right now (especially against the way we play against the Pirates)

[Elrhino]

When Soriano is hot he can almost singlehandedly carry an entire offense by himself for a month.

 

... but when he's cold? yesh.

[EhDubya]

Soriano is on pace for 9 homeruns this game. Pretty sure that would be a record.

GET THAT BUM OFF OF THIS TEAM. SHAM HITTER.

[Andy]

.362, six homers and an 1.146 OPS in May so far for Fonzie.

[inari]

This is a lot of fun.

[UMFan83]

very excited about this hot streak

 

agreed... I really took it badly when we started losing again. If we can build up a nice 15 over .500 cushion, I can calm down and not let day to day affairs affect me.

So that's good, huh?

It would be more fun if the Stros and Cards stopped playing out of their asses.

Lies. You'll still be nitpicking the lineup with the rest of us. :)

8, they won't bat in the 9th

[evv98]

Sori's taken what? Three pitches so far? We will never get the pitch count up like this. :rotfl:

Well the Cards have come back to earth some.

[UMFan83]

Gallagher isn't missing a lot of bats today....lots of foul balls.

[illiniguy]

Come on Sean the one way to lose this game is walks.

[E.J.]

Throw strikes Sean.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Derrek Lee is good at baseball.

[E.J.]

Nice play Lee!

[Sammy Sofa]

BAD.

 

ASS.

[ChiCubsFan]

What is being overlooked is that Gallagher's stuff has looked electric at times today. That is more exciting to me than Soriano's and Geo's awesomeness.

 

DLee is a very good defensive first baseman.

[Careless]

that's an unusual play

[illiniguy]

Derrek Lee is good at baseball.

He's no Soto, but he does ok.

[ctcf]

Gold Glove.

[genbar]

Nice play. No more walks!
