That was Heilman right?

[Brian]

well Heilman wasn't screwing around.

[Keener98]

That cant be right. Im pretty sure Teddy has thrown more than 60 innings since April of 2008 lol :D

[TruffleShuffle]

maybe we should just release bradley now

[Brian]

destroyed the last bat, and then gives this one away. I love Milton I don't care what you guys say.

[Schwarber Fan]

lol @ Bradley giving his bat away

 

Good to see Fontenot doing well

[Sammy Sofa]

Funk yeah.

 

Nice night for Fontenot.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Last time the CUBS made 15 hits in a game.... Tue 28 Apr 09 (15 hits) in a 11-3 win at Arizona

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[apete6]

Maybe its because I don't watch any other teams consistently, but it seems the Cubs have an extremely high amount of "streaky" hitters this year: Soriano, Lee, Fontenot, Bradley

[Brian]

Brewers lose, in line to be in 2nd 2.5 out.

[coldsteel]

Milo H. the astros' radio announcer said Soto came in hitting his weight, but then said if he did that it would be a high average! I don't like Milo anymore.

[CubColtPacer]

A very nice night for Fontenot. And he's going to love what it's going to do for his numbers..I have him going from a .698 OPS to a .746 after the at-bats tonight. And his peripherals would suggest that he is even better than that. I'm happy overall with him.

 

You know you're hitting decently well when you leave 13 men on base and still manage to score 7 runs!

[Fred Hornkohl]

That's the answer, man !! We just need to play the Astros more often !!

[Schwarber Fan]

Milo H. the astros' radio announcer said Soto came in hitting his weight, but then said if he did that it would be a high average! I don't like Milo anymore.

 

So Geo picks up 3 hits

 

let the Astros and their organization wallow in their misery

[Fred Hornkohl]

I hated Milo 50 years ago when he was doing white sox games !! ,.... and he hasn't gotten any better !!!

[Cubswin11]

I know I/most hated last year when Lou would put Marmol out there in meaningless games, but I wouldn't mind to see him out there tonight to try to figure his sht out.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Last time the CUBS held the opponents to 4 hits in a game.... Fri 05 June 09 (4 hits) in a 2-1 win at Cincinnati

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[thefranchise]

Heilman should pitch like this more often.

[Careless]

Did that MLBTV ad have a picture of Fukodome swinging and missing a pitch?

[Brian]

Why Marshall for the 9th?

[Brian]

Jake Fox can hit a little.

[Keener98]

Why in the hell would you bring Sean Marshall into this game? Hes the longman Lou, come on.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Last time the CUBS made 16 hits in a game.... Wed 08 Apr 09 (16 hits) in a 11-6 win at Houston

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Derwood]

This should be Patton time, not Marshall time

[apete6]

Jake Fox can hit a little.

 

What the heck are we going to do with him? The guy just keeps hitting. We can't find room for Hoff to bat enough, let alone Fox. Not a bad problem, but a bit frustrating, especially since our corner OF spots are locked down for the next 2 years.

 

Hopefully when everyone comes back, Scales is sent down and I guess Blanco down as well. Freel will be DFAd, no? That would leave 13 position players as follows:

 

Soto, Hill, Ramirez, Theriot, Fontenot, Lee, Miles, Soriano, Johnson, Fukudome, Bradley, Fox, Hoffpauir

 

Although I'm sure we'll never be 100% healthy, so that will mix and match.
