6/2 Super Cubs (Z!) @ Padres (Baek) 9:05 pm CSN/WGN Radio

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Atlanta 2, Florida 0 early.

 

The Marlins are my current "root against" team because they are the top non-playoff team in the NL.

 

We are four games clear of a playoff spot. I'd love to see it hit double-digits by the end of July.

I'd love to face anyone in the NLCS again :)

 

Goodness that would bring back some bad memories. The masochist in me wants to face the Cardinals. The stathead in me wants the Phillies (lefty starters, low-K pitching staff).

As opposed to the Marlins starters? I don't know how many of them I can even name.

 

Somewhat moot, the Marlins probably wont be making the playoffs.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Wow, the Marlins' starters suck. I hadn't even really looked that closely. And Luis Gonzalez. That Luis Gonzalez.

 

Well, if we faced the Marlins, the key would be to take a 3-2 lead back to Wrigley. There's no way we lose a Prior and a Wood start back to back.

I wouldn't want to face the Phillies in a 5 game series just because of Cole Hamels. A 7 game series and we are talking.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Weird thing I noticed about Hamels:

 

Almost no platoon split.

 

RH vs. Hamels: .234 .289 .404

LF vs. Hamels: .234 .290 .415

 

He's good, but I don't know if he's "shakes up a series" kind of good. I'll take our lineup vs. him against their lineup vs. Zambrano.

 

I guess there's no good way to base your entire season on a five- or seven-game series

 

 

1-0 Cardinals, Pujols just missed a two-run homer. I've given up hope that this team will fade.

[chuckywang]

Did you steal that from John Kruk? That analysis is Baseball Tonight-esque.

 

[x] weak attempt at insult

[x] pointless attempt at insult

[x] rude attempt at insult

[ ] actual rebuttal of the arguments presented in my post

 

Wow you are full of yourself.

 

To be fair, in hindsight, my post had no hint at sarcasm. I should have written it in green.

We sure didn't look to good against Hamels when we saw him in April......

I believe we have faced Hamels 3 times in his career. Once in 2006 we lit him up like an XMas tree, and he didn't lost too long. The last two times, he's pretty much had his way with us, once at Wrigley last year, and once at Citizens Bank in April.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Hamels has given up 5 HR against us, but only 8 ER, how does that happen

OBP is the worst stat in the world.

I'm guessing that's what happens when you don't walk people.

He sucks. Been in the bullpen, starting now due to injuries. Padres win 4-1, Baek allows 1 run on 4 hits in 7 2/3.
