8/13: Gm 2 Cubs (Harden) @ Braves (Campillo) 6:15p CDT CSN+

Nicely done, Sori -- 5-0 Cubs

 

Looks like he was going to admire that for a little... then said oh poop, I gotta run this out

[weis21]

Sori was hustling on that one! :cool:

[Schwarber Fan]

hustle!

[tenritsu]

Fukudome... I dunno everytime i see him not get a hit these past few weeks, it isn't cuz he's not making contact. Is that just me or are other people seeing what I'm seeing?

[Soul]

Campillo's stuff is pretty good, IMO. I'm glad we got to him early. The tack on is extra nice.

[WTFCUBS]

He should have carried his bat and stopped half way down the line and pretended he had a tommy gun and was firing into the braves dugout.

I was going to suggest cartwheeling down to first, but I guess this works too.

70 pitches through 4 for Campillo. I second your sentiment about getting to him early.

[weatherdood]

1 pitch out :D

I saw him pitch in Arizona last friday. Other than a leadoff homerun to Drew, he was pretty unhittable.

he had 25 strikeouts in July, but only 5 so far this month. A lot of them were the ugly spinning strikeouts he does so well, which tend to stick in the mind

[Little Slide Rooter]

I say pull him after 5 just to be safe, no matter how many hits he has or hasnt given up.

[Soul]

No hits, but Rich is still struggling somehow.

Fuku's Ks are down, but his overall approach at the plate has been awful this month.

HE IS HEALED

Didn't he give up like 5 ER?

[UMFan83]

C'mon Rich buckle down

[Soul]

Hmmmm.

 

Rich isn't the same Rich tonite. I'm kinda worried.

[weatherdood]

No hit bid is over. That should end any and all thought of leaving him in for longer than 5 or 6.

[UMFan83]

Hmmmm.

That's 2 starts in a row. Maybe he is getting too much rest?

[Outshined_One]

Hmmmm.

He is human ya know.

[BCVM22]

Where the hell was that pitch?

I think that's a good thing though. Harden isn't a low pitch per inning guy. I wouldn't put too much pressure on him to try to extend his innings and pitch count.

[Soul]

Hmmmm.

I know.

 

You won't begrudge me wanting to see Superman in a Cub uniform though, will you?

[weatherdood]

Hmmmm.

Last start was last Tuesday...He's on 7 days rest. Not saying, just saying.
