May as well give Soto the rest of the afternoon off unless they plan on using Blanco tommorow.

Was that retribution for admiring the majestic blast yesterday?

 

very slow curveball, so no.

OK...Just saw the aftermath. Missed the pitch. Ramirez looked pissed.

[CubbieBum]

Anyone else think Butkus sounds a bit like Pat Summerall on the radio.

[E.J.]

Bruce Bochey has to hate his job.

[Little Slide Rooter]

It might be time for Omar to call it a career.

 

His offensive numbers this year are shockingly low. There are probably a lot of pitchers hitting better than that. Maybe they can trade him to the Cardinals so TLR can bat him ninth and it will actually make sense.

 

Hes deteriorated into a 53 year old Ronny Cedeno.

Bruce Bochey has to hate his job.

He deserves it, why the hell would he leave San Diego?

[TMan92]

DFA Edmonds! Loser.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Edmonds grounded into a FC, , 3-2, D Lee out at home, Ramirez to second

I don't know why Rowand signed there..It's basically a prison sentence of 5 years.

[CubinNY]

I loved the smile on Rich as he was entering the dugout. i think he likes it here :D

There's probably more people cheering for him in one sport than have every cheered for him before. The friendly confines can be very friendly when things are going well.

 

He didn't disappoint.

If prison entailed making millions of dollars...then yes, that is a good analogy.

i am inclined to agree...although...if they do things right...they may be pretty good in a few seasons

Ya I know ,I figured that one, but he could've found a a deal close to it possibly on a better ballclub than that pathetic team besides Cain and Lincenum.

Woo Hoo just got back from my triple header softball games to see this.

 

Although a short outing for Harden a very good outing at that. 10 k's in 5.1 almost 2 per inning amazing. But if we can do that and we can get the bullpen to come through in all his games and save his arm and not run up too many innings on him that would be awesome.

 

GO CUBS!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Hart in to pitch for the CUBS

[Illini Iceman]

Blanco is catching Sunday, per Lou on the pre-game radio show.

 

Seems like an odd day to choose to give him off since other than a few innings on Tuesday he won't play again for 4 days. Unless Lou figures no one is going to hit Lincecum anyway so he may as well play Blanco.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 48-1 when they lead at the end of 6 innings

 

 

Go CUBS !!
