It's great to have a veteran presence like Howry. No matter how much he sucks he maintains his cool out there.

Yeah, but he doesn't walk anyone. That's the only way for a pitcher to tick Lou off it appears.

 

Another bold prediction: The cubs get 1 more this inning.

So Lou has 3 left-handed pitchers in his bullpen, and he lets Howry pitch to Branyan, who kills right-handed pitching and can't hit lefties at all?

 

Lou absolutely blows as an in-game manager.

 

You have to wonder why Cotts was not warming up.

Can I just say how sick I am of Len and Bob talking about how Howry keeps his cool everytime he hands over a lead on a silver platter? At least they didnt this time. I think even they're finally sick and tired of him.

Why does everyone keep blaming Bob Howry??

 

Its not his fault he's still a Cub or is CONTINUOUSLY used in big situations in big games.

 

But it is his fault he sucks.

 

But its not like he can just stop sucking. However, Lou CAN stop using him. Blame goes to Lou.

I despise Russell Branyan. I still remember the home run he hit against Z to break up his no-hitter last season. That was the same game that Lee and Young went at it.

 

Seems like the only thing he does is hit a big homer to beat the Cubs, then slinks right back down the hole from whence he came until we show up again.

Lou has put too much trust in the guy

 

He needs to be DFA'd before he can do us anymore harm

 

He's Lou's Neifi.

 

And once again, Hendry is sitting back and letting Lou have his toy, to the detriment of the team.

He really is dumb as a rock once the game starts.

Yeah, this is brutal.

 

Meanwhile Wuertz and his big league 127 ERA+ toils away at AAA.

As others said only 1 person to blame there and that's lou, if he isn't happy with using any of the LHP available tell hendry to get him one he likes instead of throwing the gas howry on the fire.....
