07/06 Atlanta (Jurrjens) @ CUBS (Wells) 6:05pm, CSNTV & ESPN

[Cynosure]

Ok come on LEE!

 

Could Ramirez's presence alone be enough to get these guys going?

 

No.

 

Of course it could be... likely not.

[Little Slide Rooter]

The Phillies tatooed Cueto for 7 runs in the 1st inning.

[Careless]

He's given up 4 runs on 6 hits in 2 innings but only thrown 31 pitches

[illiniguy]

If our bats are really heating up, running off an 8-10 game streak is not absurd with our pitching

 

 

 

:clapping:

Can you imagine how devastated Milwaukee and St. Louis would be if this was the case. In one week we could outdue what they built up all first half.

[Little Slide Rooter]

holy crap, Phillies up 10-0 in the bottom of the 1st.

[Cynosure]

He's given up 4 runs on 6 hits in 2 innings but only thrown 31 pitches

 

Yea... NO one is making him work... could nip us in the ass if he settles in.

[weatherdood]

The Phillies tatooed Cueto for 7 runs in the 1st inning.

 

Make it 10

[Tryptamine]

Kosuke's OPS is suddenly sitting at .824. I'd take that every year from a CF.

I could see a 8-10 stint. This is what this team was put together to do, and were finally whole again.

[Roast]

Ok come on LEE!

 

Could Ramirez's presence alone be enough to get these guys going?

 

No.

 

Of course it could be... likely not.

Or, it could be that Jurrjens left a hanger over the plate for a red-hot Lee, plated a pitch to fukudome, and then escobar couldn't pull the ball out of his glove.

Thank you wise sage... I wasn't aware of what was happening.

[Cubswin11]

The Phillies tatooed Cueto for 7 runs in the 1st inning.

 

Make it 10

and somehow Cueto will pitch through 6 innings tonight

As a long-time basher of kfuk, I'm tickled pink to dine on this delicious crow. I think he's found his home in the leadoff spot.

 

He even wears number 1!

Horses gotta run, dude.

Well you're the one who brought up the ramirez question. No, it has nothing to with ramirez' presence. Lee has been hot, Fukudome has been warming up, and bad defense is just bad defense. Ramirez had no effect on any of that.

[Tryptamine]

Cueto left the game with with 2 outs in the first. His ERA took a jump of almost 3/4 of a run.

[Cubswin11]

Has a non-closer relief pitcher ever won a ROY?

[E.J.]

Boo!

[Tryptamine]

Ugh, these always screw us over.

[illiniguy]

Has a non-closer relief pitcher ever won a ROY?

Did Williamson close the year he won it?

[Roast]

Awh, lee.

[bcl412]

Well, if there is a time to make a mistake like that I guess it's on a two strike count with two out and nobody on.

[Roast]

Wow, how did that not come back to bite us?

Alright so he will be available out of the bullpen tomorrow to come in for long relief.

Whatever it is, I'll take it.
