6/5 - CUBBIES (Demp) @ Dodgies (Bill) 9:10 p.m CSN+/WGNradio

[BigSlick]

1 run game so he turns to Cotts? i don't get lou at all.

 

LEFTIES

 

Actually Cotts has pitched well so far, I don't know why teh complaints?

[Butterscup1679666578]

I almost feel better with Eyre in this situation than Cotts. :?

 

You should. Eyre is good.

[CubColtPacer]

Is Dempster just done after those several 100 pitch games in a row?

 

Good handling Lou, maybe should have kept him on a shorter leash

 

Dempster only threw 93 pitches last time out, and this performance tonight is basically the same outing he's had a few other times this year. He struggled in 2 innings...that's Ryan Dempster for you. He's going to have innings where he loses his control. He's been doing it his whole career, and he's been doing it this year.

What is your annoying Dodger Stadium moment?

 

Mine would have to be a recent one:

I'd much prefer Eyre here. Eyre should be our first lefty to come out of the pen.

[ChiCubsfan0502]

I love all the people doubting Cotts when he has been very, very good since his call up. 4-6-3, inning over.

[Butterscup1679666578]

NEVERMIND SORRY NEAL GOOD JOB.

Lee, Ramirez, Fukudome, Soto. That used to be exciting.

It still is. You're just over dramatic.

[CubsGM]

Send Lee down to AAA

[CubColtPacer]

God damnit

 

Honestly we never hold those early leads, I don't know why.

Part of the problem is Dempster has nothing tonight and yet we have let him piss away this lead. Should of pulled him after 5.

 

He was cruising for 4 innings, had a little bit of a rough inning in the 5th, but still came out of it ok and had only 67 pitches through 5. If we pull people as soon as they have 1 bad inning, we'll never get enough innings for our starting rotation. Many pitchers settle down after getting hit hard in 1 inning, especially if they were cruising before that. Dempster happened not to tonight.

What an abortion of an inning already

I don't remember that game at all. I was gonna say the game where Kerry pulled up lame in '04. That was the beginning of the end for Kerry as a starter.

[17 Seconds]

I bet we lose 6-4.

Awesome inning boys!

You know why that game is significant though, right?

[BCVM22]

Someone check and see if Kent broke a hip making that play.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Tht guy made short work of the "heart" of our lineup.

[ArthurVandalay]

Well that was an amazing showing by the heart of our order...

[splintersag]

2 pitches, 2 outs. Grr.

Shut up about this, its super annoying.

[ChiCubsfan0502]

Yeah. It really shows how bad they are when the hit two line drives right at the defense. :roll:

[CubsGM]

I love leadoff hits.
