8/26 Cubs (Z!) @ Pirates (Snell) - 6:05 WGN TV

[UMFan83]

Is this 3 straight bad starts now? Or did he have a decent one last time out, I can't remember.

 

He had a decent start in terms of ERs, but gave up 6 hits, walked 4 and the wind was blowing in quite a bit at Wrigley

Last game was a good outing, but 2 out of 3 is still inexcusable.

[rawaction]

Whose 1st? Zambrano or Soto?

His numbers were good last start, but those are decieiving. He looked just like this last start

 

yeah 6 hits and 4 walks over 7, only run was a solo HR, thanks to the Reds sucking

[erik316wttn]

Z suffering from some dead arm, perhaps?

[17 Seconds]

That dugout routine is getting old, Z

[Guest]

So who's to blame for the wild pitch to Morgan?

 

Now that Soto has added a passed ball to the inning, who gets the blame on strike 3 to Morgan?

[inari]

I've got a feeling Z's not going to be a factor in the playoffs. That's scary. Hopefully I'm wildly overreacting.

[Ski]

It's really nice to see that the Cubs can hit a fastball this game.

 

This is just ridiculous.

Z threw it in the dirt. It was a tough pitch for Geo to dig. It just took a weird kick.

[Brian]

Since the great, but needlessly long start against the Brewers (8 innings, 118 pitches)

 

5.0IP, 3H, 1BB, 2R, 1ER

4.1IP, 10H, 1BB, 9ER

6.0IP, 4H, 5BB, 5ER

7.0IP, 6H, 4BB, 1ER

That dugout routine is getting old, Z

 

He's at the point in his career where if he hasn't stopped now, he's not going to. It's really frustrating that our "ace" pitcher loses his cool and throws a tantrum at the drop of a hat.

[Guest]

And what tantrum did Z have in the dugout?

[Hall7810]

I've got a feeling Z's not going to be a factor in the playoffs. That's scary. Hopefully I'm wildly overreacting.

 

 

He looked just like this last Aug.

[CubInOK]

And what tantrum did Z have in the dugout?

Throwing water coolers, kicking things. The usual.

[Hall7810]

And what tantrum did Z have in the dugout?

 

Flipped a Gatorade cooler.

[Guest]

And what tantrum did Z have in the dugout?

 

Knocked over one cooler, threw his glove and hat at another and a lot of shouting at nobody in particular.

[Brian]

z's going to be swinging for the river

[Guest]

Z's going to try to hit these pitches all the way to Chicago.

[Guest]

nother good at bat by Kosuke. Hopefully Soto and Zambrano can make up for their crap bottom of the 1st with good at bats.

[17 Seconds]

So we're probably going to be relying on Marquis to avoid losing this series? Nice. And was it too much to to have swept one of the last 3 series against atrocious teams?

[ChiCubsfan0502]

We'll still win this game if Z can settle down.

[Hall7810]

You're way behind. :shock:

So much for that.

Haha, wow I am.
