9/2 Astros (Backe) v Cubs (Z!) 7:05 WGN

[anabiono]

um...think Z has cramps?

 

maybe he stopped eating his bananas?

 

maybe they have him on a pitch count because of his tired arm?

 

what else can i come up with here that isn't an injury?

[Guest]

Everyone needs to take a step back. No personal insults. No swearing.

[mdwilla]

insane that howry is on the mound right now.

[erik316wttn]

i know this might be an overreaction because this game isn't going exactly like i had hoped, but the cubs should probably be contracted.

 

You know, you're just as bad as the people you criticize sometimes.

[David]

It's really frustrating seeing the "best" team in the National League play like garbage.

 

 

Yea... the quotes aren't really necessary, but OK.

[Vinestal]

Why is Howry pitching in a close game? It's just so freaking frustrating.

 

 

I really dont get it, he should have been released like a month ago but instead he's pitching in a crucial situation in a game that means something in September. I really dont understand why he's still around.

[Mizzou]

Why doesn't anyone question Lou about his use of Howry? What about the golden child, Bruce Miles? Why won't he question it?

[Fred Hornkohl]

F*** YOU HOWRY

 

on a side note: i have never seen a duck run so fast

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[Flames24Rulz]

Go Mets.

[YearofDaCubs]

I hate Howry

[E.J.]

Nice pitch Howry.

[Guest]

Theriot was tempted to make that stupid throw.

[Ski]

So, it'd be nice if the Cubs could give us a nice, relaxing top half of the inning followed by an inning where they actually get a hit with runners in scoring position. But I guess this is too much to ask for.

[Butterscup1679666578]

So wait, we're in a 3-3 game with extended rosters and the best we can do is Bob Howry? Really?

We released the wrong guy. Eyre should have been kept and Howry should have been gone.

[inari]

Like I said, 3.5

 

Like I said... shut up

 

keep it civil please.

 

Can't you ban for trolling?

[kujay]

Go Mets.

 

They made nothing of a couple of baserunners in the 6th.

[Andy]

Do not throw 2 strike pitches down the middle to Humberto Quintero. You would think the advance reports would mention that.

[Ski]

TAKE HOWRY OUT NOW

[Joe_Cub]

he's not in good shape

[Derwood]

I had this dim hope that Howry would be left off the playoff roster. I now realize that the Cubs will lose at least one crucial post-season game because of him

[E.J.]

Like I said, 3.5

 

Like I said... shut up

 

keep it civil please.

dexter isn't trolling. he's just being negative. if you don't like what he has to say then I suggest you use the foe feature.

[RedFlash]

Dear Cobs;

 

YOU ARE BETTER THEN THE ASTROS. Please act like it, dangit.

 

Sincerely;

A paranoid Cub fan.

[Little Slide Rooter]

If we lose this would be the only one where I feel we shouldn't have lost.

 

So all of the stranded base runners= a deserved win? This team has well deserved every loss of the last 3 games, and this 1 is no different.
