Zambrano is still not right

 

No but he looks better than he has been

I've been jumping in and out here, so I don't know if this has been said, but it seems like he isn't throwing many (if any) breaking balls.

[17 Seconds]

I'd almost be glad if we got out of this inning tied

[JoshiQ]

The playoff rotation is scaring me. Especially when I've seen our offense against dominating pitching.

[weatherdood]

Oh man

[badnews]

Sorry to be "this guy" but DAMN IT ALL YOU CANNOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES WALK MICHAEL ****ING BOURN THE DUDE HAS LIKE A .480 OPS AND ALL HE DOES IS STEAL BASES, WHICH HE CAN'T DO IF YOU WALK HIM BECAUSE HE SUCKS ASS.

 

Seriously - call me an overreactor because these games do make me emotional, but I have to wonder what kind of 'ace' issues a free pass to an utter stiff like Bourn. Just throw the ball down the ***damn center of the plate, he won't do anything.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Good job Z. If Id known that Friday would be the Cubs last win, Id have taken off work to enjoy it.

[Ski]

I'd be nice if Tejada pulled an Edmonds.

It would have been nice

3.5 game lead here we come

Good to see CubsGM back here.

[E.J.]

Gooz warming up.

[JeffH]

Zambrano is awful.

 

This is a loss.

 

The swoon started a little late this year.

[17 Seconds]

God it is so infuriating to see a pitcher absolutely give away free runs

[bcl412]

Hopefully these last few games are just us getting our suck out of our system.

[kujay]

3.5 game lead here we come

 

Yawn.

[E.J.]

say something positive, I dare you.

[badnews]

Give me a break, Michael Bourn scores. Why don't we walk Doug Davis while we're at it.

 

Save the walks for guys who can actually hurt you. ****

[Vinestal]

I miss the days where we used to bring guys in when we had runners in scoring position like that. Man what the hell is wrong with Z, seems like he hasnt been able to locate anything but fastballs.

[17 Seconds]

3.5 game lead here we come

 

Yawn.

 

So you feel good about the Cubs winning this game or the Mets bullpen winning a game?

[kujay]

Thanks Berkman.

[JeffH]

How ridiculous is it that Angel Guzman is going to appear in a meaningful baseball game?

[Ski]

Cubs ERA is 538.30 the inning after they tie the game or take the lead.

 

Go CUBS!

[kujay]

3.5 game lead here we come

 

Yawn.

Dude, the game is tied in the 5th freaking inning!
