[GoCubsGo1679625768]

I have been unimpressed with Lee all season. He's been a bum.

not really.

[Faceman]

We are all rooting for Izturis to continue being put int he lineup thats for sure, those are some great numbers hes put up

 

Yes, we are all squarely on the Isturis bandwagon, that much is for certain.

 

He's better defensively than I knew though. He's got that going for him. =D>

[Keener98]

Jesus Christ thats BS

[TysonCBulls423]

just got home and what's with all the negativity?

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

No way that's a strike!

[GoCubsGo1679625768]

whats with the bloated sig?

[Transmogrified Tiger]

He has to swing at that because you hate Ramirez, blue

[bukie]

It's the incredible moving strike zone. It even moves within a single AB!

[Choonch]

Lots of complaining about the home plate ump...is is that bad?

Ron seems to think it's "consistent" but it doesn't sound like it from nsbb

Looks to me like he's consistently called some unhittable pitches strikes.

[bukie]

Lots of complaining about the home plate ump...is is that bad?

 

It's completely inconsistent, which is the worst kind of bad.

[CubsBears29]

Sure is nice to know that we're apparently facing the early-90s ATL pitching staff today.

 

 

I want to truthfully say what I think of this soapdropping ump's zone, but it ain't worth the banishment.

Its been consistent on the outside about 6 inches off the plate for both teams. The high strike however hasnt

[bukie]

Actually, it might not be inconsistent, it might just be 3 inches high and 4 feet wide.

[Guest]

Well, here's hoping for a walkoff today.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Calm down Jeff, keep the ball down

[ConstableRabbit]

Anyone else notice how Pat never says "Fukudome"? He always refers to him as "Kosuke"

Have to grudgingly admit that he's given our pitchers a call or two in our favor as well, but not nearly as many as against.

 

I didn't realize the Kzone included the opposite batter's box on fastballs, but it seems to be the case with this guy.

 

And a 4-pitch walk to Cesar Soapdropping Izturis. CMON Shark!

[Guest]

How does Cesar Izturis reach base three times in one game?

[BleacherBadger]

Well, here's hoping for a walkoff today.

 

Jimmy's up 3rd in the 9th. He told the guys in the clubhouse before the game, "Don't worry guys, this one is on me"

Yeah, I admit I haven't typed that name much.

 

The ND kid throws pretty hard huh?

[Keener98]

Come on Jeff sit HGH down!
