Morgan saying the Cubs may have over-reacted to the playoff loss to the Dodgers.... He is actually saying somthing that I agree with

[OleMissCub]

Joe Morgan is actually making sense

[manbearcub]

god, joe morgan is smarter than Jim Hendry. This blows.

[Exile on Waveland]

Morgan . . . logical . . . so confused . . .

[Fred Hornkohl]

Soriano doubled to down the left field line

They probably did overreact..but I still think when the season is over Milton Bradley will have solid numbers and look like a decent signing. Dumping half the bullpen and trading Mark DeRosa still stings with me.

I'd love for Joe Morgan to be the Cubs' GM so I don't have to listen to him on ESPN ever again.

[JonJayCutler]

About time Soriano.

riot just pooped his pants

[JonJayCutler]

Yay for using our best reliever in garbage time.

[ArthurVandalay]

Hopefully enough people will harp about how we need to trade for DeRosa and Hendry will actually do it.

Sorta like how all the hubbub about the "lack of left handed hitting" influenced his decision to trade DeRosa in the first place.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Marmol in to pitch for the CUBS

[Fred Hornkohl]

Ausmus, pinch hitting for Bellisario, hit by pitch

[Careless]

That didn't look quite like a normal Marmol miss.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Last time the CUBS hit 2 batters in a game.... Sun 17 May 09 (2 HBP) in an 6-5 loss to Houston at Wrigley

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[B]

Marmol in to pitch for the CUBS

wtf...this is stupid.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Pierre called out on strikes

[Fred Hornkohl]

Furcal grounded to the pitcher , safe at first on a fielding error, E1

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 4-15 when they commit one or more errors.... 21-8 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Hudson grounded into a FC, 4-6, Furcal out at second, Ausmus to third

[Fred Hornkohl]

Martin walked , Hoffmann to second
