NLDS Game 2: Dodgers (Billingsley) @ Cubs (Z!) TBS, 8:30 CST

[ZFan38]

just end it please.

[Skyballer]

If the Cubs forced a game 5 do you think there's a chance Carlos would get the ball?

 

Yes.

Please no, no no no no no no no!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Why not?

:exploding head:

he pitched good today, but let's face it. Dempster has been the better pitcher all year. There is no reason to put an entire season on the line and make a pitching decision based on one game instead of one year.

 

Dempster has a history of coming out of the pen, Z doesn't. Start Z and use Dempster out of the pen if it gets ugly.

Come on Raisin, throughout the entire year Dempster has started and has done a suburb job doing it. The Blue koolaid Z love has to stop, his era this year almost hit 4. He is not the same pitcher he once was and instead Dempster has become awesome so we start Zambrano?

[cbbryan]

This should be a booooooooo fest.

[BCVM22]

Do people really think they'll be doing much against Kuroda Saturday? Tough to imagine right now.

 

They've scored one earned run off him in 15 1/3 innings this season. I have no faith.

[IowaCubsFan]

LMFAO.

 

At this point the only thing I can do is laugh.

 

I really can't wait for the postgame show now.

[Irrelevant Dude]

This is just embarassing now.

[Guest]

Alright. The Dodgers have now scored more runs tonight than any other playoff game combined so far.

 

Our shutdown setup guy and our shutdown closer have both given up runs.

 

At least Wood's run is unearned.

[Irrelevant Dude]

9 run rally, starting in 3... 2... 1...

[CUBZ99]

You gotta be kidding me. The Cubs have home field advantage and get absolutely killed in the first two games?

 

Lou was a moron for putting the best pitcher on the team for game 3. The Cubs deserve to lose the series based on the stupidity of their manager.

 

Yeah, because Harden would have done great with those 2 runs of support in game 1 or with the 1 run of support in game 2. And as an added bonus, the defense will give the Dodgers 6 outs in the second inning!

 

Maybe you haven't seen his stats since being traded to the Cubs? It is beyond explanation to not send out your best pitcher during the playoffs. The Cubs are getting what they deserve right now.

[vj9999]

Lee will hit a meaningless homerun next inning.

6 unearned runs this game.

I wouldn't surprised if there was some destruction going on in Wrigleyville after the game.

I was kind of hoping for a meaningless GIDP.

[UMFan83]

I think when all is said and done, I will look back at the 2007 team more fondly than the 2008 team. At least the 2007 team didn't get completely blown away in the playoffs.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

I'm a rural wuss who is scared of the city anyways, but I wouldn't really hang around there if I were at the game.

Blue koolaid Z love?

Yes the senseless love of someone who has far underperformed.

Yeah, at least they were in those games for the most part.

[ZFan38]

The thing that sucks is even if they force a game 5 (they won't) I won't be able to watch it.

[Sosa21MVP]

Lou was a moron for putting the best pitcher on the team for game 3. The Cubs deserve to lose the series based on the stupidity of their manager.

 

Yeah because the defense would really back Harden up and the bats are smoking....oh wait. Everything is going wrong for this team. Not a great observation there.

I'm a UF fan and your sig makes me feel even worse.

 

thanks a lot.

 

I give up

Plus we got that awesome Ted Lilly .gif!

[Outshined_One]

Oh look, a meaningless XBH.

[Prior4CyYoung]

here comes the 10 run rally to win.
