8/19 DBR (Cueto) @ Super Cubs (Harden) 7:05p CDT, CSN TV

Wow. Glad filthy Marmol is in full swing again.

[Soul]

CPatt is a very very very bad baseball player.

Yeah. He never developed the skills to be successful. Big waste of our time.

[Andy]

I'm with Len. The Allstar outing has really helped Marmol's confidence. Nasty since then.

 

Reds announcers mentioned he hasn't allowed a run since the ASB break. :shock:

Len said that too. 16 scoreless since the break after the 8th.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Insurance runs would be very welcome.

[bcl412]

It doesn't get much nastier than Harden to Marmol to Wood.

 

It's pretty much unfair if they all are on.

 

Pujols-Bonds-ARod couldn't hit them if they are on let alone Encarnacion-Patterson-Bako

[kujay]

Houston has corners with one out in 7th.

[Soul]

I.R.

Please tell me that it's Marty Brenneman actually complimenting a Cubs player.

[17 Seconds]

16 straight scoreless innings for Marmol

[Soul]

Houston has corners with one out in 7th.

Shouse took advantage of the L/L matchup though. 2 out, nother stros lefty up.

[weatherdood]

Man it looks like Sori's in a bad slump

Harden as a Cub: 42.2-26-8-7-14-59.

 

Take out 1 of those starts and you get

 

37 IP, 18 hits, 3 ERs, 13 BBs, 52 Ks. That's just stupid.

Even if Harden doesn't go 7 every time, we don't lose much nastiness-quotient if we slide Samardzija in there for an inning or two.

[bcl412]

I'm predicting a Theriot bomb as the dagger.

[ChiCubsfan0502]

Sori is slumping.

[Soul]

On purpose there?

[bcl412]

I'm predicting a Theriot bomb as the dagger.

 

It's going to bounce off of his bat and go over on this bunt.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Astros had 1st and 3rd with 0 out, and stranded em. Not a good day for RISP for anyone I guess.

[bcl412]

On purpose there?

 

I think so. He was at least trying to get him off the plate on the bunt attempt.

[Soul]

Hahah, Dusty Baker's Reds everyone.

[ChiCubsfan0502]

Insurance, please. 1st and 2nd, no outs.

[Schwarber Fan]

Time to end this, right here

[17 Seconds]

Hopefully Aramis can drive this guy in from third with 2 outs

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I'm smelling runs....

 

or maybe something else...I did have red beans and rice for lunch.
