8/7 Cubs (Big Z) @ Rockies (Jimenez) 8:10 PM; CSN; WGN Radio

[illiniguy]

Thanks Dex

 

you aint that fast

They think they had Ussain Bolt on third there? That was foolish. Pry bought us one more inning with Sean.

[Keener98]

Is there a reason everyone is talking like the Cubs couldn't or shouldn't pencil Marshall in to the rotation if Z goes on the DL? Yeah, he's not looking good tonight but it's a last minute start in Colorado for a curveball pitcher.

 

 

Because hes not stretched out at all

[Roast]

Milton has a really good arm when he wants to. Wow.

[DiamondMind]

You're all full of it. I'd send Fowler with Bradley throwing if the balls 10 feet into the OF grass.

 

I just didn't expect that good of a throw.

[illiniguy]

That's right Ryan don't at all work the count.

[DiamondMind]

[Roast]

You're all full of it. I'd send Fowler with Bradley throwing if the balls 10 feet into the OF grass.

 

I just didn't expect that good of a throw.

 

We all know you hate bradley but he has a real good arm most of the time.

 

 

also, LOL at bradley looking into the rockies dugout and shaking his head.

[illiniguy]

at least we're getting miles out of the game early

You are assuming we don't double switch.

[DiamondMind]

the white macias

[TysonCBulls423]

the look Milton gave was priceless :-))

[Roast]

at least we're getting miles out of the game early

You are assuming we don't double switch.

Oh, eww. Why would you say that.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Miles, pinch hitting for Marshall, grounded out to first, unassisted

[bcl412]

Is there a reason everyone is talking like the Cubs couldn't or shouldn't pencil Marshall in to the rotation if Z goes on the DL? Yeah, he's not looking good tonight but it's a last minute start in Colorado for a curveball pitcher.

 

I've always liked the idea of Marshall as a consistent starter but for whatever reason Lou doesn't.

 

Marshall has also been in the bullpen most of the year and his outings are usually against a batter or two so I'm not sure if he'd be a good option as a starter when he probably isn't capable of last that long right now.

[Keener98]

Len, how can you tell when Miles is or isnt rusty?

[illiniguy]

Thanks so much for Aaron Miles, Jim.

[Tryptamine]

Miles inches closer and closer to a nearly historically bad .450 OPS.

[Ballgame64]

Great at bat Theriot. What is he thinking? And now we get to see Aaron Miles, yipee. Oh well, at least we don't have to worry about seeing him later in the game. Another fantastic at bat. Come on Hendry release that piece of crap.

[Soul]

Every time Miles plays, God takes a day off each of our lives.

He's from Colorado.
