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

[17 Seconds]

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

 

say something positive, I dare you.

 

I say plenty of positive things, you just choose to ignore them. Forgive me for being upset with Zambrano walking one of the worst hitters in all of baseball.

[weatherdood]

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?

 

Both games are only in the 5th inning. The Mets BP did hold down the game yesterday... Our offense is waking up tonight...

 

We'll be fine

[RedFlash]

Here I thought that maybe September would be a semi-relaxing month to get ready for the playoffs....BUT OH NO......the Cubs can't give us that for September, they are bound me us stay nervous and stay paranoid through the end of the yr.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Come on Cobs. Swing for the fences, as we all know that baserunner are about as useless as [expletive] on a bull.

[weatherdood]

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

 

Not necessarily positive... but it's a start....

 

We're tied after this inning... but it's hello 3.5 game lead??? Perplexing

Yawn.

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

 

You didn't answer my question.

That's still a 10 game lead after a 3 game losing streak. At worst it will be a 9 game lead after a 4 game losing streak.

[TruffleShuffle]

Zambrano is awful.

 

This is a loss.

 

The swoon started a little late this year.

 

isn't it odd how certain people just come out of the woodwork when the cubs hit a rough patch?

Did you really think that? :wink:

[Ski]

Z should be done after this inning.

[Andy]

Runs.

[E.J.]

I hope Lou puts Gooz in. I'm excited to see him pitch again.

I've never even thought about putting someone on my foes list until about 5 minutes ago.

What's hard to understand that some of us get frustrated as hell with this nonsense? Look, this is baseball, I don't approach it with the 100% logical common-sense approach I do with my professional life. I see Carlos Zambrano walk Michael Bourn and I start hopping around like a chimpanzee. I see our "ace" melt down at the worst possible time, I get agitated.

[weatherdood]

Sneaky single

[Little Slide Rooter]

WTF Fontenot. You knwo theres no point in a base hit with this team.

you should do it; you'll find your nsbb experience much more enjoyable.

[weatherdood]

OMG we're so doomed!!!

[erik316wttn]

Maybe Z should have been skipped entirely instead of just being pushed back a few days.
