4/6-OPENING DAY-Cubs (Z!) @ Astros (Oswalt) - 6:05 CSN/ESPN2

[Cubswin11]

Seriously Neil Cotts sucks.

Seriously if he wasn't lefthanded he would be digging ditches somewhere

[cubswin2009]

Fukubomb please

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Did Lou just get outmanaged there?

 

Nope, if Cooper wants to burn a bench bat to get a RH in against Cotts(who isn't a lefty killer), with a man only on first with 2 outs in the 7th, that's his prerogative.

Good job Cotts.

[Cynosure]

Why don't we have a /facepalm smilie?

 

#-o

 

I missed that one, but that's not the traditional facepalm!

[radarluv1]

man theriot reminds me of eckstein in putting everything into a throw that barely crosses the diamond.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Geary in to pitch for Houston

[Butterscup1679666578]

W00t 8th over.

 

Astros feed is horrible. They have 2 clowns talking about the game.

 

that was the 7th.

Well, i guess you're going to just have to suck it up and quit complaining then.

 

:wink:

[TruffleShuffle]

Cotts will last 3 weeks

 

 

Problem is, we dont have a lefty in the system able to replace him, and thats pathetic

 

agreed, how is it that we have one somewhat competent lefthanded reliever for the majors? these guys grow on trees.

I have nothing to complain about the game though, had to find something...

 

Nevermind, another weak out by Fukudome.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Fukudome flied out to left field

[hardcorecubfan]

Geary in for Oswalt and Fukudome pops to lf

[kujay]

Fukuseless.

[cubbinalltheway]

Seriously Neil Cotts sucks.

lie.

 

 

You actually believe Neil Cotts is a good pitcher? Seriously?

i didn't say he was good. i said he doesnt suck. for a reliever, he's decent.

[Hector89]

Just like I thought, Kosuke stinkin' it up in the 2 hole...

[cubswin2009]

I'm already done with Fuku.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 67-3 when they lead by 2 runs or more at the end of the 7th inning.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[BCVM22]

So close.
