8/3 Cubs (Wells) vs DB's Reds (Harang), 6:10pm, WCIU/ESPN

Judd Sirott really annoys me.

 

He's brutal. He makes Masur and Provus look like Pat Hughes.

[Derwood]

having to choose between the Reds announcers and ESPN announcers is like choosing between a kick in the nuts and a kick in the nuts

[Flames24Rulz]

Third straight game where we've let the starter and/or long reliever get into a groove after getting runs early.

Fortunately for the Cubs, Randy Wells is a stud.

Yeah I called my dad before the game and we talked about this, lol. Not really a good choice here. I chose the Reds broadcast. Meh.

[UMFan83]

Man thank God Fontenot hit that homer, I don't know if we are going to score again.

 

Also, no Gregg and Heilman today so if we can get through 7, I feel decent about Guz and Marmol finishing it up.

[InconspicuousZ28]

9 K's for Harang now in less than 6 innings. WTF.

[Ski]

Striking out really pisses me off.

Well, I think I underestimated "getting into a groove." After Badenhop left on Saturday, I think their long reliever only allowed 2 hits through nearly 5 innings. Then Nolasco retired something like 16 in a row yesterday and now Harang has been virtually unhittable ever since the Wells double.

 

Hopefully Wells can go at least seven.

If it makes anyone feel better, Geo sounds like he's doing well in his rehab (1-2 with a walk).

 

Cashner sounded incredible.

[Hall7810]

Only 67 pitches for Wells

[Careless]

they have these terrible "bumps" on FSN Ohio with Reds players simply saying "You're watching the Reds on Fox Sports Ohio". So why can I see their eyes reading the cue cards? IS IT SO HARD TO MEMORIZE?

Being around Baker actually makes his players stupid

I'm real excited about Cashner. Definitely didn't like the draft pick at the time, but he's been unreal this year.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 38-20 when their pitchers average 16 pitches per inning or less.... 17-28 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Prizefight]

Every Wells start I think it's the start that he's due for 2.1ip 6ER 1k 3 walks and it just isn't happening.

 

 

And apparently my praising of Harang's badness made him conjure up talent from 2 years ago..or our offense is that unbelievably inconsistent...

[UMFan83]

75 pitches for Wells. Could he be the Cubs first CG of the year? More realistically, he might be able to go 2 more if he keeps it up.

I wouldn't mind it. Gregg is kinda scaring me lately.

[UMFan83]

Can we play the Astros again? More specifically Mike Hampton and Russ Ortiz.

Lou said Gregg and Heilman are unavailable tonight. Marmol is the closer, which most people wouldn't be much more comfortable with.

[InconspicuousZ28]

Gee, good thing we got some runs early, I guess.

[Cubs Fan In NY]

Koyie sure takes a lot of strikes on the inside of the plate.

As I said I wouldn't mind Wells closing this puppy out.

[UMFan83]

Is that 0-3 3K for Koyie Hill?

 

He's miserably bad.

He deserves to.
