Re: 4/26 Cobs (Harden) @ St. Louis (Wellemeyer) 1:15 CDT, WGN

[Ski]

That should be Harden's last inning.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Yeah, Im really not missing Lee yet. Ramirez, yes, Bradley, you cant miss what you never had, but Im glad that Hoffs making the most out of his freedom.

[erik316wttn]

Think we could get anything for Lee? I'd be willing to give the everyday job to Hoff.

Lee is staying, especially with that salary. Lou just needs to say I overreacted and split him time between LF and 1b.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Cotts in to pitch for the CUBS

[erik316wttn]

Well, at least Cotts should make it interesting.

 

Might be Marmol time after this inning.

[CubmanPi]

Strikes please. If Cotts can't come in with a five-run lead and get the job done, he needs to disappear off this roster and not come back.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 4-6 when they GIDP.... 4-2 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Sammys Boombox]

Well, at least Cotts should make it interesting.

 

Might be Marmol time after this inning.

 

Marmol's not available today. Probably not even in the bullpen.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Thurston walked

[Little Slide Rooter]

Why even put him on the mound, especially without Marmol to bail his sorry ass out.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Thurston stole second base

[Sammys Boombox]

DFA TODAY!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Ryan, pinch hitting for Walters, doubled (ground rule) to down the right field line , Thurston scored

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 1-5 when the opponent steals a base.... 7-3 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Tryptamine]

Lou, quit being so obsessed with match ups and pull this trash from the game.
