5/20: Cubs (Demp) at Cards (Carpenter); 7:15 pm CT, CSN/ESPN

[CubbieBum]

So when does it stop being called the "new" Busch Stadium?

[Butterscup1679666578]

ive had enough of soto

 

 

I understand your frustration, but hes probably been our best or 2nd best hitter in the month of May. Hard to believe but true

 

Yeah I know, I actually just decided to go with it and say it for every Cub that made an out that inning.

[Old Style]

I've had enough of the C0bs.

when they build another one

[illiniguy]

ive had enough of scales

 

The feel-good story magic sure wore off in a hurry.

Pixie Dust only works for Cardinals in the STL

[Little Slide Rooter]

We really need to find a way to get Jake Fox on this team. We need all the help we can get.

 

For the love of [expletive] God Jake [expletive] Fox is not the [expletive] savior, give it up.

 

well for the love of [expletive] God, we sure as [expletive] need [expletive] something, so stop [expletive]ing telling me what to [explative] think. See, I can [explative] too to prove my point.

 

Your a broken record man, Id guess that 80% of your damn posts since the beginning of the season have had the word Fox in there. What part of his defense is so atrocious that the Cubs dont think he can play any position at the major league level do you not get? Deal with it and get over it, because no matter how many times you post about Jake Fox, its not going to change the fact that if the Cubs thought he could help them right now, hed be up.

 

Sometimes you can afford to have a guy whose there strictly for his bat. If we carried Daryl Ward and Cliff Floyd in '07, we can carry Fox now, and I can guarantee you that they are beginning to at least consider the idea.

[TruffleShuffle]

oh they are some of the best fans in america? i hadn't heard.

Hmmmm.... maybe there was a reason why he never got a callup in 11 years ???

Your not listening to Hrabosky are you

[TruffleShuffle]

Yea I figured that out in your next 3 posts :D

[illiniguy]

what a cardinalish hit.

compounded by the fact it was a double.

What do you suppose Micah Hoffpauir is?

 

I am completely with Keener here

[Soul]

[Andy]

what a cardinalish hit.

Pixie dust works on the baseballs too.

 

And Jake Fox might as well get called up at some point. There's no point in having David Patton around.

[BigSlick]

Man they could have nailed Duncan if Fontenot was at third

[Butterscup1679666578]

so are we getting a bomb, a sac fly, or a gritty seeing-eye single through the hole here?

[TruffleShuffle]

fontenot you moron

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Lou don't be stupid, you don't squeeze on the first pitch.

[BigSlick]

the grittiest of the gritty

 

the squeeze play

[BigSlick]

stop it

 

stop giving them balls

[Outshined_One]

That's partly on Theriot for not getting in position for the wheel play, but it would have been a footrace to the bag for him if he was in position to do it.

[BigSlick]

Hmm...I'd argue against walking against a hitter as week as Thurston but Khalil Greene up

 

I might regret saying this

[Butterscup1679666578]

khalil greene is going to murder one here in all of his mentally insane glory
