7/26 Cubs (Harden) vs. Marlins (Volstad) 12:05 cm CT WGN

[rocket]

87 pitches for harden. that means 3 innings of the cubs bullpen assuming harden gets out of the 6th.

 

let's go offense.

[Allroy]

Aram has amazingly quick reflexes. Too bad he's so lazy.

[TruffleShuffle]

if harden can avoid arm trouble through the end of next season, he'll be an extremely wealthy man.

[Andy]

A-Ram > Joe Crede

Or anybody among NL 3B in fielding. If he gets denied a GG again this year I'll be upset.

Theriot grounded out to third, 5-3

[Andy]

Lee should never have moved that bat. He probably didn't go but he needs to learn to stop swinging at that damn pitch.

[WTFCUBS]

Lee is pathetic at throwing fits.

[Uber]

Ron: ROB DRAKE. Cmonnnnn. Rob..aww...Drake. Boy, he's bad.

Marshall in to pitch for the CUBS

Well that's awful.

[Outshined_One]

I'm glad Harden was taken out. His pitch counts have to be a concern down the stretch, imo.

[Andy]

Harden's done after 5. I wanted to see him start the 6th, but this is fine by me.

[rocket]

well, at least harden won't go 0-2

[TruffleShuffle]

uh wut... this makes me nervous. since when does lou take out starting pitchers who are throwing well and are at 87 pitches?

[Fred Hornkohl]

That breaks a string of 6 consecutive quality starts by the CUBS.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Jacobs flied out to right field

[Sammy Sofa]

Z needs to take Harden under his mighty wing.

[weis21]

Harden's done after 5. I wanted to see him start the 6th, but this is fine by me.

Plus the fact that he wasn't very sharp last inning. I have no problem with being extra cautious right now.
