Seriously, two runs is nothing in this park.

 

Of course that's with an offense that doesn't blow.

They're gonna hit again and Sean threw 41 pitches. They will be getting multiple at bats against our bullpen.

[Careless]

Jeff Samardzija's up? Season over. Go Packers, Hawkeyes, Bulls and Blackhawks.

these packer/cubs fans are spreading, this is some sort of epidemic that needs to be wiped out

I'm ok with giving Iowans with weird sports allegiances a pass

[BigSlick]

kinda sad too because we have perhaps the ideal lineup out there, in the correct order too!

Meh, when I was growing up the Packers seemed to be on more than the Bears and the Packers were better. It is what it is. Plus I had to complete a circle of hate between my parents and me. My mom's a Vikings fan and my dad's a Bears fan.

Its more giving up on our bullpen having to pitch 9 innings

[Fred Hornkohl]

Soriano grounded out to the pitcher, 1-3

[B-Diddy]

Now watch Jimenez turn into a Cy Young candidate.

[JonJayCutler]

Incase Z is out for awhile, John Smoltz and Vicente Padilla were both DFA today.

[illiniguy]

Now watch Jimenez turn into a Cy Young candidate.

He's really good.

Logic and baseball don't mix. It's very possible that the Rockies don't score again.

[Outshined_One]

Now watch Jimenez turn into a Cy Young candidate.

 

With his stuff, if he pitched anywhere but Coors for half his games, he would be a good candidate every year.

[bcl412]

Now watch Jimenez turn into a Cy Young candidate.

 

Jimenez is underated.

Hey look thats pretty much the same ball that Fontenot doesn't get in the picture on.

[CUBZ99]

Len is trying to be a comedian. He said Koyie Hill will probably get a start in this series, because they "don't want him to get cold."

[Tryptamine]

Did you see how that 2B was actually able to range to the middle Fontenot? Yeah, you should learn to do that too.
