6/14 Twins (Baker) @ Cobs (Lilly), 1:20pm WGN

CubmanPi · June 14, 2009

Scott Baker (4-6) is going for the Twins today. Somehow, this season he has managed to simultaneously post both a 5.59 ERA and only a 1.17 WHIP. He's won three of his last four starts, going at least 8 innings in two of those three wins. In his last outing against Oakland, he went 8 innings, gave up 3 runs on 4 hits, and threw 116 pitches.

Theodore Lilly (7-4) will be taking the hill for the Cubs today. He is the last pitcher to notch a win for this team, after pitching 6.2 innings of shutout baseball in Houston, with 2BB and 4K. He is coming off his two highest pitch counts of the season, throwing 114 in Houston and 108 before that in Atlanta. On 24 May, Lilly allowed 5 runs in 6.1 innings in San Diego. Other than that, he has notched a quality start every time out since the beginning of May.

The Cubs have lost 5 straight contests against the Twins, with their last win against them coming June 17, 2001.

It's about time we beat them.

they certainly earned this "cobs" in the thread title.

Cobs loose 2-1. Twins fans leave Metrodome South happy. Go back home, and realise they're in Minnasota. Happiness short lived.

WSR needs to have a breathalyzer installed on his computer that blocks him from posting past .04.

I just did a GIS with "sexy cub" and the filter turned off. Ahh!

Avast Me Hearties! Ye Cubs have a scant lead of 1.5 games over ye olde Mighty Bucco's!
Arrrrrrrrrrr! Batten the hatches! Four sheets to the wind!

Maybe we should start posting the reverse standings again. How many games are we out of the 1st draft pick for next season?

No one is catching the Nationals

Keener98 · June 14, 2009

Same lineup as yesterday for the Cubs except Fuku hitting 2nd and Font hitting 6th. Not sure why Fuku would be moved up right now. Him and Sori are the 2 in the biggest slumps yet they are hitting 1-2.

E.J. · June 14, 2009

It's hard to believe that Lou keeps running Soriano out there and leading him off. He's been Todd Hundley bad for a while now.

rynefan · June 14, 2009

I have a feeling they'll be hitting good today. Wildcard is if Lilly is at his usual greatness. CUBS WIN!

It's hard to believe that Lou keeps running Soriano out there and leading him off. He's been Todd Hundley bad for a while now.

Who do you replace him with?

My thinking is, if Soriano were the only one struggling I'd go ahead and drop him down. But when nobody is hitting well, you keep the guys where they're most comfortable (even if it is just psychological) and hope they break out of the slump.

Sosa21MVP · June 14, 2009

Well now that we addressed the source of the hitting problems I fully expect 10 runs today. :pig:

Wow. This woman singing the national anthem is awful.

Worst of all she is a drag it out when she sings. Edited June 14, 2009 by hawkcub

[expletive] it's bleeding gums murphy

str8carter · June 14, 2009

I'm pullin' for you guys to beat the Twink's....about time to come around....go Cubs! :good:

OleMissCub · June 14, 2009

my cousin is leading off for the Twins, woooot!

He's been sucking this year, so I don't expect him to do much, which is good for the Cubbies of course.

The smiley face cooler was bizarre, yet quite amusing.

Sosa21MVP · June 14, 2009

Nice to hear the kid who shut us down yesterday got demoted to AAA today. :rotfl:
