7/24 DBR (Harang) @ Cubs (Wells) 1:20 CSN

[Butterscup1679666578]

Aramis is getting that swing back.

[haubrich91]

Man Rammy is hot today!

[BigSlick]

This game got boring... I also thought this could be one of those 10-8 games, but then I remembered that would be severely over-estimating the Cubs' ability to score runs

Even though I tried to temper my own excitement after the Nationals series I was expecting us to hit a bit better because it looked like Fontenot, Bradley and Soriano were turning around

 

But we're still not scoring many runs. :?:

 

EDIT: hahaha was typing this up decided to send it anyway

A Ramirez homered to left field

I love reading posts like this before my mlb.tv catches up! :D)

[laurens]

I LOVE YOU ARAMIS

[third eye]

Wow, any chance Aram can follow up with a triple? :clapping:

[Flames24Rulz]

His swing is a thing of beauty when he connects.

[mul21]

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeee's baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!!!

 

This offense is just completely different when he's hitting well.

[CyHawk_Cub]

Now for the anti-climatic Milton AB

[haubrich91]

There we go Milt.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Bradley singled to center field

[weis21]

You know, getting a productive Ramirez back is kinda like adding a Holliday to this lineup....

[inari]

Len is so hesitant with his home run calls.

[CyHawk_Cub]

Wow...Milton actually got good wood on that.. Good job

[Keener98]

Bradley with a hit from the left side? wow

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 42-15 when they get at least 8 hits .... 6-30 when they don't

CUBS are 21-7 when they hit at least 2 HRs.... 27-38 when they don't

 

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[mul21]

If we didn't have the potential for crap, crap and more crap pitching the next few days, I'd say pull Wells now and go Guz, Marmol, and Gregg to end it.

[Old Style]

I love me some Aramis.

[Flames24Rulz]

Len is so hesitant with his home run calls.

 

I don't mind that. He could be like Chip and think a popup is bound for Waveland.

[weis21]

Wow...Milton actually got good wood on that.. Good job

I've been saying all year that it is just a matter of time. So, I'll say it one more time, it's only a matter of time before he starts raking.

 

I have a gut feeling that he is really going to carry us the last month or two of the season.

[Old Style]

I love me some Aramis Ramirez!

I swear I didn't see this before I posted. :)

[Fred Hornkohl]

The discussion of Beuhrle vs Wood is interesting, intelligent, informative, and totally out of place in this game thread. I will enjoy reading the rest of it in the CUBS discussion forum later on.

 

:scratch: Is it really that big of deal to discuss this in a game thread? Not like there is alot of action going on in this game right now.

 

Generally speaking, no. In this instance, when it becomes a couple dozen posts back and forth, it does become tedious.

 

Meanwhile.... is the game getting more exciting for you ???

[Keener98]

Sori seems to be duck snorting the hell out of the ball lately. Ok lets get a big inning
