9/3 Astros (Wolf) @ COBS (Dempster) 7:05 CSN Chicago

[Ski]

Please tell me Valverde is unavailable.

[ChiCubsfan0502]

Oh, wow.

[Schwarber Fan]

Thats it

 

goodnight

[Andy]

Wow.

 

All you had to do was get Bourn, you moron.

[CubsBears29]

Well, I had it all set up, but ahh forget it. Soapdrop this losing skid!!!

 

 

"Well, an ultimate fake rally is now set up - even against that douchebag Valverde...

 

- ARam goes yard. 3-1, no outs.

- Soto singles to center. 3-1, 1 on and no outs.

- DeRosa flies out to the ivy in left center (hit real hard, but a big wind gust, at just the right time, keeps it in the park). Soto can't or doesn't tag. 3-1, 1 on and 1 out.

- Johnson walks. 3-1, 2 on and 1 out.

- Cedeno gets a hit that would normally be a double, but is only a single, and scores Soto. 3-2, 2 on [1st and 3rd], 1 out.

- PH hits into a game-ending GIDP."

Alright, this is comically bad now. Freaking Astros. It's always the team you least expect to beat you.

[UMFan83]

I think the Cubs are allergic to 90 wins

 

In 98, they won their 89th game with 2 to play and lost their last 2. They did win the WC game to get to 90 games but we all know that doesn't count

In 04 they won their 87th game with 9 to play and finished the season 2-7

 

Now winning their 85th game with 27 to go they have started out 0-5

[Allroy]

Sounds like the fans are going to start throwing garbage. Can't say I blame them.

[rynefan]

Huh? What was that?????

[CubsBears29]

At least its Houston and not Washington, or San Diego.

[David]

is this just the beginning of an epic collapse?

 

Oh joy

 

How are your Brewers doing, Sulley?

 

Seriously, don't bother.

 

I got fooled last time but no matter how convincing he is, I won't get fooled again.

I don't know if they could get much distance throwing half the Cubs team.

[UMFan83]

Wow.

 

All you had to do was get Bourn, you moron.

 

Not if the runner scored before then.

[rynefan]

It's plays like that that really worry me

[BCVM22]

No, at this point, I fully expect them to lose to bad teams with regularity. I expect the scrubs to drive in the runs and I expect the pitchers with the 5-ish ERAs to do the shutting out.

[CubsBears29]

And speaking of the Natspos, they are going to blow it yet!

 

Now 9-7

[JeffH]

Wow.

 

All you had to do was get Bourn, you moron.

 

Of course, they had to get him before the runner crossed the plate.

[cubsclapp]

Get out of the effing box and run Aramis. This is a complete joke. The 1st and 3rd rundown is a play you work on nonstop in little league for chrissakes.

[rynefan]

maybe they'll start throwing those fukudome hats on the field

Its 9-7 Nats now.............

[Shilzzz]

i know it's conjecture, but it seems like something is wrong with the team internally right now. bad timing.

[Mizzou]

Well, I'd rather them go down 1-2-3 than load them up and fail to get anyone in.
