8/28 Phillies (Hamels) @ Cubs (Dempster) - 7:05 WGN TV

This is boring. The Cubs are so far ahead of the Brewers and Cardinals, that there is no discussion about this game on their forums. I love going on there and seeing "and of course the Cubs hit a grand slam and take the lead. I HATE ramirez!!!"

You can only see it happen so many times before it's not a surprise anymore.

i know you guys are into this game, but just for a reminder, the radiohead stream is up and running at http://www.radiohead.tv

The best part is their bullpen was already worn out coming in.

 

I think the best part was the Ramirez Grand Slam but thats just me :)

And of course the Cubs hit a grand slam and take the lead. I HATE RAMIREZ!!

This is why I hate when Lou puts Kerry in for a blowout "just to get some work in". Because before you know it, you end up playing a couple of close games and the closer is being used for the 4th straight day.

I didn't mind when he pitched the first game of the Pirates series... he did need some work. But it was entirely unnecessary to pitch him in the second game.

 

Damnit.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Here comes one man I hope never ends up in the NL Central.

[UMFan83]

Not good.

[RedFlash]

I maintain my prediction that the Cubs will have a semi-big inning capped by a 3 run homerun and win this game.

 

you were close.

 

Close but ultimately WRONG. You fail

 

 

;)

 

I was a little off, but I am glad ARam went with the grand slam, instead of the mere 3 run homerun.

[UMFan83]

Marmol should have been in here not Kerry

[CubsBears29]

Marmol better be getting up, and QUICK!

 

Don't be hardheadedly stupid, Lou!!!

[Sammy Sofa]

Oh noes.

[CubmanPi]

It wouldn't be a Cubs game if they let didn't things get too interesting in the ninth.

[TMan92]

Unfortunately this game is not close to being over yet.

[BCVM22]

Aaahhhh

[Sammy Sofa]

Please get Marmol going.

He has to get him in game situations to keep him sharp. No one can predict the future. Before the Pittsburgh series he hadn't really pitched in a while.

Musta missed that, I had to pee. Was it all right?

He got work in the first game of the PIT series. No need to have him in there in the 2nd game with a 6 run lead.
