[Sammy Sofa]

This year has to be more frustrating than 2006

 

Not even close.

actually, it is.in 2006, we knew we had a crap team on our hands from the get go, but now, we have a high pay roll team that should be steamrolling their way to the top, and they cant hang.

 

One would need that high payroll team actually on the field for it to steamroll anything.

Soto struck out swinging

This year has to be more frustrating than 2006

 

Not even close.

 

why is 2006 more frustrating? that was an awful team. this is a good team that plays like [expletive] morons 95% of the time.

[erik316wttn]

Is there any reliever in baseball like Marmol. I never remember seeing a pitcher who is so unhittable and yet so amazingly wild. He's gotta be closing in on some BB by a relief pitcher record.

 

Farnsworth was like that sometimes.

[JGalt73]

Remember when Soriano was a HR threat?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Soriano grounded out to third, 5-3

[B-Diddy]

Nightmare game to go along with the season.

Not even close.

actually, it is.in 2006, we knew we had a crap team on our hands from the get go, but now, we have a high pay roll team that should be steamrolling their way to the top, and they cant hang.

 

I submit to you the following names:

 

Dusty Baker

Jacque Jones

Neifi Perez

Juan Pierre

John Mabry

Freddie Bynum

Cesar Izturis

Tony Womack

Glendon Rusch

 

With the exception of Aaron Miles, no one on this team comes remotely close to those piles of trash.

[Sammy Sofa]

Yow, that was an epic broken bat.

Part of the frustration. Still at this point, Ramirez is the only man down. Bradleys getting it together, but Soriano has been brutal aside from a few hot streaks. Somethings got to give.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Baker singled to down the right field line

[B-Diddy]

Of course that caroms for a single instead of a double...

[Sammy Sofa]

Nightmare game to go along with the season.

 

This is a pretty mild "nightmare."

[UMFan83]

I love how the wind is blowing way in yet the Cubs are coming out there hacking for a solo home run. What a horrible approach. Soriano is so bad it boggles my mind how he could ever be a competent enough baseball player to deserve even half the money he makes.

You've also got stupid moments like this with Lou not batting the actual CFer with a RH pitcher on the mound.
