Happy Birthday Derrek Lee!

[Schwarber Fan]

Edmonds hurt?

 

 

No...Lou said on pregame he is now playing best lineup to win that day. Not sure how that should be any different than usual, but I'll take it to mean the traditional platoons may be over.

 

It just doesn't make sense to me to keep a guy who got on base 3 times last night and scored a run out of a slumping lineup trying to get back on track...

 

IF hits

 

Who cares?

 

At least he got on base unlike most other Cobs

 

Yup, he is the master of strategically placing hits on the infield so his slow ass can make it to first in time

 

I remember him dropping down a bunt single in game 1 of the 04 WS

There's a D-Lee double.

 

Sounds like another healthy Cubs crowd tonight...

My parents are there.

Ramirez swinging for the fences, big surprise

[PrimeTime]

Well theres one stranded runner

[BCVM22]

Nice AB, Aramis. Whoosh.

[Hall7810]

Since the grandslam, Aramis has looked silly at the plate.

Cubs LOB: 1

It was nice when Aram would hit doubles all the time and just hit the ball all over the field. you can so tell hes just trying for the HR

[17 Seconds]

Since the grandslam, Aramis has looked silly at the plate.

 

This is the third time this season where he's gone into a bad slump in which he tries to pull EVERYTHING

This is NLDS Aramis. Good to see he is getting this out of his system now rather than later.

 

Nice play Jason.

Thanks for the update

 

The Cubs have been held scoreless for 2 consecutive innings.

[Cubs08]

DP!

Nice job Marquis.

 

First time I have actually clapped for this team in a week.

[Hall7810]

Marquis' stuff is moving like crazy.

[17 Seconds]

Sorry but starting the ice cold Johnson against a righty tonight makes no sense.

[17 Seconds]

Looks like another miserable night

[BigSlick]

Sorry but starting the ice cold Johnson against a righty tonight makes no sense.

any centerfielder is trouble...when was the last time Edmonds hit the ball out of the infield?

[UMFan83]

Offense doesn't look any better today. Can't someone show some signs of life???

[BCVM22]

Looks like another miserable night

 

Sure does.

The last time ANY Cub hit it out of the ballpark

[cubsclapp]

So... Hoffpauir still can't hit that breaking ball down and in. They're going to give him a heavy dose of those in the bigs. You don't see breaking balls like that at AAA.

At least he gets on base.
