9/16: Brewers (CC) @ Cubs (Dempster) 7:05, CSN

[Brian]

i'm not gonna be happy if cc gets let of the hook again.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Go get him Lou. Hes done.

[Allroy]

Fatty better take one in the ribs for that.

[BigSlick]

I'm pretty furious because Dempster shouldn't have made it past that lead off double

[Butterscup1679666578]

Really Lou? Dempster shouldn't have come back after the 5th. Come on.

[17 Seconds]

And now they have to stall because Lou didn't even have anyone ready

[bcl412]

Please don't manage like this in the playoffs :beg:

[TMan92]

Fatty better take one in the ribs for that.

 

Would he feel it. It looks like Fielder gained 100 pounds. Have him and Sabathia been having an eating contest?

[BigSlick]

And now they have to stall because Lou didn't even have anyone ready

i hate when lou gets caught with his pants down like that, why did Dempster even come out for the sixth? it was so freaking silly

[RedFlash]

i'm not gonna be happy if cc gets let of the hook again.

 

He won't. The Cubs will give CC his first NL Loss.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Damn our defense has been ridiculous lately.

[weatherdood]

Thank you Reed!

[VanceJergins]

Lou is really upsetting me

[Little Slide Rooter]

Why can we never take care of these gritty little weasels?

[haubrich91]

What's his pitch count?

[17 Seconds]

Lou what the hell is your problem

[Little Slide Rooter]

Seriously Lou, hes been done for a while now.

[bcl412]

What's his pitch count?

 

Gameday has 112

[weatherdood]

If Kendall hurts us here because of Lou's idiocy, the Howry's gonna hit the fan.

[tenritsu]

What's his pitch count?

 

112

[rawaction]

I don't know what's worst. Pitching Dempster when he was clearly tired last inning. Pitching Dempster when you need to be saving him for the playoffs. Or pitching Dempster when he has piled up a ton of innings for the first time in a real long time.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Time to hunker down and take those runs back.

[weatherdood]

Nicely done, Demp. You've done your job.

[bcl412]

No kidding. It seems like Dempster is throwing the most pitches out of any of our starters. I mean the guy has been a relieve for how long and he has a complete game. That seems kind of dumb.

My guess is that should we clinch this by Friday/Saturday, which in all likelihood should happen, Demp will be skipped his next start.
