Re: 6/25: Orioles (Burres) vs Cubs (Lilly) 7:05pm CSN

Welp the Cardinals tie it go figure.... When they finally decide to test Ankiel for HGH at least he'll finally be off the team but then Looper will take his spot and will start hitting Homers everyday instead of just getting hits when he pitches.

1) there isnt a test for HGH in MLB

2) stop complaining about the cardinals it's getting tiresome

 

No kidding. They're superior to every team in every way, so theres really no point anymore.

yeah, thats totally what i meant :roll:

we already have a 3.5 game lead on them, our entire lineup is not outplaying projections. our rotation is not patched together to that extent, we have a massive run differential advantage. we are superior to them at just about every single position. it's really tiring to hear all the complaining about a team that we are much better than

 

Do you really think people are serious when people talk about the Cardinals being baseball Gods? Do you really think I or nyone think they're the best team in baseball? No, there a team that just wont go away, and it gets frusterating that we cant pull away from them, but then again, Im sure at the Cards forum, they say the same things about the Cubs, as they can barely ever gain any ground.

we have a pretty big lead for this early in the season though. we are on pace for about an 8 game win. BP has our playoff odds at above 90% on all three reports. It's not like they are hovering within a game or have a lead over us.

[haubrich91]

Ramirez sure is a beast.

[erik316wttn]

Aram singles. Bases loaded for Jimmy Ballgame.

[inari]

Man, at first glance I thought that was hit down the line.

[Little Slide Rooter]

time for a Pretty-Bomb

[chuckywang]

If Patterson, Fontenot, and Lilly want to make all the outs in this game, that's fine by me.

[Joe_Cub]

PANCAKES

[CubsNSkers07]

Aram singles. Bases loaded for Jimmy Ballgame.

 

 

And they can't walk him this time, so be ready Jimmy i'll take just a single.

[erik316wttn]

Edmonds, if you go yard here, I'll apologize for most of the times I questioned your sexuality.

2) stop complaining about the cardinals it's getting tiresome

 

Stop complaining about people complaining about the Cardinals. It's equally tiresome.

this is the first time i have complained about the bitching. it's just getting on my nerves. it's not even complaining about them that is bad. it is talking about how ankiel is on HGH, how they could take a fan from the bleachers and he would OPS .900, saying how lucky they are and so on

 

It's just message board banter though. Actually I don't really care what anyone says, but there doesn't seem to be much point in getting worked up over what is said here, no matter what it is.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Making a pitcher fresh out of the pen work is a good idea. It's not like Cormier is good for 80 pitches out there.

[TruffleShuffle]

Haha, Rays leading Florida 13-0 in the 5th

 

14-0, with a nice 10 spot in the 5th

[inari]

Edmonds, if you go yard here, I'll apologize for most of the times I questioned your sexuality.

 

These gay jokes have gone from moderately funny at times to completely annoying.

[inari]

That'll do, donkey. That'll do.

[erik316wttn]

Run scores on a FC to 2nd base. Nice slide by Aram to break up the DP.

[Little Slide Rooter]

meh.

[Soul]

OK cool, couldn't get the DP, got a run back. I'll take that.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

FC for Edmonds scores a run. Runners on the corners with 2 out.

[erik316wttn]

Geovany Soto!!

[inari]

Geo!

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Basehit for Soto and we get the other run back!

[BCVM22]

Keep this fine train moving, boys.

[Soul]

There we go, eventually some of those Soto hits had to start finding some holes.

[CubsNSkers07]

SOTO! Come on DERO Extend it

[Little Slide Rooter]

Here comes the Soto we know and love. We'll, the Geo we know and love would be cranking doubles and homers, but we'll take this one over the one weve seen in June.
