8/27 Cubs (Marquis) @ Pirates (Duke) - 11:35 AM CSN Chicago

[BleacherBadger]

Just ran some numbers...

 

Since all-star break, Marmol has pitched 19 2/3 innings, given up 4 hits, 1 run, 11 BBs, and 27 Ks.

 

Everyone have full confidence again? All corrected. Walks still aren't great, but if he strands them.

[Hall7810]

Just nasty.

[haubrich91]

Wood is awesome.

[Sorianos hop]

I've got Wood.

[David]

Cubs win!

[Choonch]

Just so it's clear, this is exactly why Wood shouldn't have pitched last night. With a 6 run lead, at least *try* to get through the inning with Howry.

 

Lou's bullpen management :-s

WHIP still significantly less than 1, with a K/9 rate well into the double digits. Yeah, I'd say I'm pleased.

 

Wow, great work Wood! Cubs Win!

[Sorianos hop]

Didn't see the game, what's the line on Marquis?

[PrimeTime]

33 games over for first time since 1945?? :shock:

[Derwood]

nice win, and nice to get it in before the rain

[Hall7810]

Plesac with the broom.

Correct.

[UMFan83]

The Cubs would have to go 6-23 to avoid winning 90 games LOL

[bukie]

So, the Cubs are 33 games over .500 for the first time since 1945. Which is absurd.

This team had better win the Series this year or I'm going to be incredibly dissapointed.

Wow, better than I had thought.

[Schwarber Fan]

Could that game have been any more the opposite of last nights?
