07/31 Cubs (Harden) @ Marlins (Volstad) 6:10 CT, CSN TV

It's one of those games.

 

To me it feels like the kind of game in which the Cubs get a 3 run homerun in the 8th or 9th to win the game.

What does Dave Otto do when he's not being the all-purpose fill-in for Chicago sports media members?

So..........Hoffpauir off Leo Nunez then?

[bcl412]

Why am I not as intimidated by Hanley as I should be?

[E.J.]

K machine tonight.

[Andy]

Any of these big-time hitters who K's a lot aren't as intimidating as a guy who doesn't a la Pujols. It's the same reason Ryan Howard doesn't scare me as much as some of the other Phillies.

[bcl412]

We need some runs for him.

[Fred Hornkohl]

That's 11 out of 14, no?

I think it has more to do with him playing for the Marlins.

[Schwarber Fan]

He's got 11 K's?

 

wow

[E.J.]

What's his pitch count at? He has to be nearing 100.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are scoring 6.5 R/G since the All Star break.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

That, plus he's wee.

97

Yeah, 97 after the Cantu walk.

[Andy]

Should be the end of Harden's night. Hope we can get him off the hook.

[E.J.]

Fukudome scared me there. That might be it for Harden. The offense needs to wake up now.

[NotSoSober]

I'm assuming he's done since he's around 100 pitches and is due up this inning. Good outing, now lets get some runs.

I would hope so, he's at 99 pitches after 5. Although Lou does seem to be napping, so who knows.

[E.J.]

Hill with 2 hard hit balls so far tonight. Good to see.

[E.J.]

A sac bunt down by 2?

[Flames24Rulz]

A sac bunt down by 2?

 

Idiotic.
