Theriot with the stomach flu, apparently.

 

He found out it was Marquis's day to pitch and got sick?

AKA had too much to drink?

Usually how I feel when Marquis pitches.

[InconspicuousZ28]

Lets try to keep the ball OFF the ground during the pitch when there's a guy on 3rd, eh Jason?

[CyHawk_Cub]

Has anyone mentioned hatred for Marquis yet?

[rocket]

marquis kinda sucks

[17 Seconds]

Gonna be a long game

[Transmogrified Tiger]

That's a heck of a stop by Soto on ball 4. Marquis spiked that in front of the plate in the other batter's box.

[hawkeyecub]

Nice cutoff Marquis.

 

You're blaming that on Marquis? Do you think it's his job to see the runner out of the corner of his eye, then jump and catch that throw which was well away from him? Unless you have a play called where the throw comes directly to Marquis, that's not happening.

[Wolfgangbucks]

How long must we endure the suckage that is Jason Marquis?????????????????????????????????????

[SABR Gamer]

This chat room is a complete joke.

[VanceJergins]

You can't spell "Marquis is a dumb ****" without DFA.

[InconspicuousZ28]

Warm up the bullpen. Its gonna be a long game.

[TMan92]

I hate how Marquis has two good outings out of ten and it keeps him around. It reminds me of when I play golf. Two shots out of 10 keeps me coming back.

[salukifudd]

marquis kinda sucks

 

Not sure the word kinda was needed.

[weatherdood]

marquis [expletive] sucks

 

fixed

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

How many pitches for Marquis that inning?

[SABR Gamer]

Is there a way to make a thread that only members can view so that we don't have other people coming into the chat room, this is worse than Cubs.com

[Little Slide Rooter]

I wonder if Marshall can eat some innings if Marquis doesnt get his act together.

[TruffleShuffle]

21 pitches 10 strikes... that's really promising

[UMFan83]

Marquis is so bad, Rich Hill is yelling at him to throw strikes.

[CubColtPacer]

They need to be ready to get a pitcher up quickly tonight. So far, this isn't even a normal Marquis start. Usually his release point is at least decently consistent. Tonight, it's all over the place. He can't think about where to put the ball when he has no idea of when in his motion to let the ball go right now. Let's see if he's corrected that in the 2nd.

Yeah I'm sure he's up for 4-5 innings here since he only pitched 7+ innings 2 days ago.

You gotta at least know the double steal is an option. If Lewis took off on the throw, then yes, Marquis should be trying to cut off Geo's throw.

[TruffleShuffle]

i kinda like jon miller... i'm pretty sure joe morgan is the sole reason that sunday night baseball is a miserable experience.
