I wish they had skipped him altogether like they did Harden, but whatever.

I have to believe that was the plan until we tanked 3 in a row.

 

Nah. This was decided before they lost yesterday.

 

And it could be argued, lately, that pitching Zambrano isn't exactly the way to preventing a 4 game skid.

Ryan Theriot will homer tonight.

 

How's that for bold?

 

Kosuke hits for the cycle. Top that.

 

Ronny Cedeno goes 5-5 with 5 grand slams, closes the game pitching 3 perfect innings, shakes his fist in the general direction of Milwaukee, causing the Brewers to lose, and later declares himself the King of the World, a nomination the United Nations quickly approves.

I still think Theriot homering is more bold.

Z throws a perfect game and everyone on the Cubs hits for the cycle. Beat that, suckers.

 

Cubs win 1-0, despite being no-hit by Brandon Backe.... :doh:

OK, someone gets a gold star if they can figure out how many runs that would produce.

How about this: Zambrano takes a walk.

Let's stop this losing and beat up on Backe. Zambrano will be on top of his game and hit two home runs today. Go CUBS!

How about this: Zambrano takes a walk.

 

-Edmonds takes a called strike and doesnt have words for the ump

-Soriano doesnt botch a defensive play

-the heart of the lineup produces

-Someone hits a walk off home runs and mimics Jose Valverdes save celebration. As a result, smoke actually comes out of Valverdes ears.
