Oh yeah

'Cuz right now this doesn't look like the team I saw in the regular season.

 

It never does.

 

I'm just dismayed.

[17 Seconds]

It took me a while to figure it out, but Lou obviously left Dempster out there so long because he wanted to get out of the extension?

 

Look at what the bullpen is doing and you will understand why Lou left in Dempster.

 

Um Marshall was good

[splintersag]

Double play, good I guess.

[third eye]

Smart play by Dero

[SpongeWorthy]

Dodgers pitchers located and we didn't. Nothing much more to say about this game.

[CDBears1259]

I posted in the last regular season game thread that I was concerned with the way the team was playing because it seemed so lackadasical and people said it was no problem. It kinda seems like it was concerning for a reason.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Kent, pinch hitting for Wade, grounded into a DP, 4-3-6, Blake out at second

[98navigator]

why not just go to marmol

 

NO reason to show them Marmol when we're trailing. The starter didn't go deep so this is what you get.

I know that's the strategy, but it is like waving a white flag.

[kjfoster 1553]

This sounds weird, but Soriano has played respectable defense

[third eye]

Well, the Cubs have made good bullpens look like fart other times this year. I'm still not done with this one.

Noit's really not. There is no reason to bring Marmol into this game.

[imb]

i'm not sweating this one as a must win, but game two? ohhhh god, i'll have an ulcer by then.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Broxton in to pitch for Los Angeles

[splintersag]

This sounds weird, but Soriano has played respectable defense

Yeah, he's saved a couple hits, at least compared to what the regular season Soriano would've done.

 

Geez, what's happened to this team? :blink:

[Little Slide Rooter]

I wonder what we can expect of Zambrano tommorow. And Harden Saturday. and Lilly Sunday.

Im not actually watching the game at this point so I dont know if he's made an apperance but they may was well bring in Howry to pitch the 9th.

[TMan92]

The Frank commercials are just as annoying this year when we are losing.

[cubs121]

5 run inning please.

hopefully! keep ur fingers crossed! :-"
