8/5 Astros (Rodriguez) @ Cubs (Harden) - 1:20 CSN

[98navigator]

Let's just win. We can't expect Harden to be nails everytime out. Not to mention they have an unearned run today as well.

[cubs121]

How many runs will howry give up?

2 and that will be the difference.

Yeah we need more runs.

[Handlebar McSkullet]

is weird to hope someone just sucks today instead of being hurt?

[cubs121]

he's missing bad!

[killthegoat06]

Get through the inning....

Not one bit. Though considering whose pitching, I'm terrified it's the latter.

[Wilson A2000]

And the Padres were going to trade us Giles at the deadline. They wanted Fukudome to begin with, so is there any chance we can trade them straight up now?

 

Giles>>>Fukudome

 

LOL.

 

Their stats are almost identical. Fukudome has more RBI's and is a better defensive player.

[UMFan83]

Yay 2 walks this year, both against the Cubs in key spots the last 2 days.

[ChiCubsfan0502]

And the 5 run lead is almost history.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

One more out, plz Rich.

He doesn't exactly suck today... Just has had a couple of bad innings in some crappy conditions for pitching.

Meanwhile Giles plays in a hitters death trap.

 

Not saying I'd take Giles but just playing Devil's Advocate.

[killthegoat06]

crap....here comes the 3 run bomb

[Butterscup1679666578]

oh god.

[UMFan83]

Harden still in the game?

[Keener98]

Oh great Bob Howry coming in. Buckle your seatbelt folks

[cubs121]

omg! no not Howry.. freekin...

[E.J.]

Here comes Howry to give up the lead.

[Sammy Sofa]

And now to pitch for the Cubs: a gas-soaked Vietnamese monk with a match.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Here comes Howry. Ballgame.

[RedFlash]

THE CUBS are going to win this game.

Yep. There is only one guy in the pen who I have zero faith in, and this is him.
