06/29 CUBS (Marshall) @ white sox (who?) 7:05 CT, ESPN TV

[17 Seconds]

Kosuke has been worthless this series

 

I finally did it. I finally put him on my foes list. First NSBBer ever to make it on my ignored list.

3-11 And a few defensive miscues

 

But yeah you all act like I'm the only one being negative here.

 

Do you really not understand why people are putting you on ignore? It's not that they're disagreeing with what you're saying, it's that you do it over and over and over again. We get it, you're pissed. Control yourself.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Anderson called out on strikes

[CubsGM]

Stadium is getting louder is the "GET LOUD" image up?

[JonnyRed]

The good news is that Marshall has pitched quite well tonight.

[Butterscup1679666578]

Good news on Z.

 

i don't have the tv on. they said on the radio show that he threw a long side session and felt fine, no pain in his shoulder.

 

Yep, he's set to start Friday.

[BCVM22]

Sit your ass down, Anderson.

[Outshined_One]

Marshall's been learning from Hill on that curve. Yikes.

[InconspicuousZ28]

Hit that, Anderson. Punk.

[BCVM22]

Good on ya, Sean.

[Butterscup1679666578]

Great job tonight Sean.

[Joe_Cub]

Yep, he's set to start Friday.

 

excellent, thanks

 

nice pitch, sean!

Well, we're a sliding baseball team now. Nobody should be suprised, we weren't going to keep winning like we were all year.

 

That said though, Lou better have the answer for this slide before it becomes a collapse. I hope it's as simple as getting some of our pieces back -- sometimes it's not that easy.

 

So we're playing without our HR leader, our CF, our best pitcher and our other CF, RF and SS are all banged up. Plus, if we're honest about it the Sox have a very good team at home. I'm not worried....especially after we rally to W tonight!

 

GO CUBS!

 

Yep. That *should* be the answer, but sometimes it's not. One of the problems with hoping "getting healthy" will save you is that the injury situation on a team is a moving target. You need to get back all your guys, and they need to get back into their rhythm, without other players going down.

 

Good outing by Marshall tonight -- really just two bad pitches. Can't ask for more than 7IP/3ER from the guy.

[CubsGM]

Theriot, Lee, Aramis

 

Get 2 runs please

[chuckywang]

Good news on Z.

Hell of a game for Marshall- 7 innings, 5 hits, 1 walk, 5 K's. Eff Brian Anderson.

 

2-3-4, gotta make it happen.

Marshall looks kinda slow to the plate though, we better mess with his mechanics, get on him when it doesn't work, and then watch him wither away to nothing in AAA.

[TMan92]

The good news is that Marshall has pitched quite well tonight.

 

If our starter gives up three we should win.

[BigSlick]

round of applause for Marshall pitched very well

 

please take Marquis' spot

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 0-21 when they trail by 2 runs or more at the end of 7 innings.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Little Slide Rooter]

That will probably be the last inning for Marshall, and the last time we see him for a very long time, but aside from 1 bad pitch to a less than competant Brain Anderson, he has nothing to be ashamed of. In fact if nothing else, he might have made Jason Marquis a bit nervous.

[bhogg]

Does Joe Morgan not know what a 12 to 6 curve is?

 

Marshall isn't throwing a 12 to 6. . . . .
