[Tryptamine]

Walk off walk to the pitcher incoming.

[Soul]

he still might walk a pitcher in to lose it.

[A-Cal]

i hope he hits a grand slam...at least it will be a highlight

[Guest]

Does a pitcher getting the winning hit qualify as embarrassing?

[Soul]

Does a pitcher getting the winning hit qualify as embarrassing?

Yeah. It also qualifies as a nice big fat cherry on top of this mess.

what a performance by ascanio today

[ConstableRabbit]

Hahaha this game rules

[Tryptamine]

Ascanio's Era almost down to 2.5 now.

[Guest]

Ascanio is a baller.

[A-Cal]

holy christ!

 

still gonna lose

[Hall7810]

Filth.

[Careless]

that would have been terrifying if I had still held hope that we would win

[E.J.]

What does Lou do next half-inning? Gotta put Patton in now.

[BigSlick]

Ive now changed attitudes from "Cubs deserve to lose this" to "Jose Ascanio deserves a win now"

[weis21]

Nice comeback Ascanio. Though it doesn't look like he's making himself any friends out there with his antics to end the last two innings.

[Hall7810]

Lilly or Patton?

[Soul]

If one good thing can come out of this debacle, maybe Ascaino will realize he can be a good reliever in this league.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Well after we lose this one, and with the off day tomorrow, I really wouldnt be surprised to see some kind of change/changes made tomorrow.

 

Only thing Lou will change is the batting order. Still gonna consist of a bunch of crap.

 

You are probably right, but the "its still early" thing isnt really true anymore. Something needs to be done to light a fire under these guys asses, and something needs to be done to help this offense.

 

In think its been long enough that if a move or chsnge were to be made, it would have been made by now. With Miles due back Wednesday, he'll probably be the change.

 

If the management of this team thinks Aaron freaking Miles is going to come in and help our offense, then that says all that needs to be said about our front office and Lou.

 

They thought hed be able to replace DeRosa without a problem, so you never kno whats going on in that war room.

[wvcbxl]

Someone please end this so I can go the bed.

To me, it became pretty clear from Hendry's words about why the DeRosa deal was done that he doesn't have the money, and doesn't have the permission, to make any big moves.

He had a 3.52 ERA and 9 K in 7.2 innings coming in to today's game. I think/hope he realized it already.

[Tryptamine]

Cordero against Reed, Jake and Blanco. I'm even more doubtful they'll score this inning than I usually am.

[Butterscup1679666578]

mmmm. WTP.

[Soul]

mmmm. WTP.

At least it wasn't yet another dribbler on the ground.

[Guest]

Lilly or Patton?

 

It'll be Patton, Lou's not that dumb.
