Man what happened to Smarshall? Not including tonight he has had a 12.15 ERA in his last 4 appearances. Will go up even more tonight.

[coldsteel]

10-4, good buddy!! Oh wait.

[Careless]

A) vedder looks old.

B) He didn't say "buy me some peanuts"

[Little Slide Rooter]

Much like this season, this game just needs to be over.

[NotSoSober]

Vedder is one of the few guests I enjoy during the bottom of the 7th, but I can't stand him singing that song for some reason

 

Edit. He appears to be quite drunk

[Schwarber Fan]

This is just so stupid and it doesn't make sense

I can't say i blame him

[Careless]

ok, I'll give Vedder credit for this:"yeah, there's a new record coming out, and it's good, and that's all I'll say about that

Pretty non-whoreish for this sort of thing.

It's always great to see Eddie on there; at least we all know he's a died in the wool Cubs fan

[Soonernation]

Yay Uncle Milty!!!!

[Schwarber Fan]

Well hopefully the whole sucking thing is done for Bradley

Welcome to the 2009 Chicago Cubs.

[witty alias]

I like this whole "tank for a high draft pick" idea. We need to keep it up!

 

I'm sure the Cubs will use that pick on a great player that will be a 12 time all-star and hall of famer. That's what usually happens with the Cubs high draft picks, right?

[Little Slide Rooter]

More likely on hiatus.

[Soonernation]

All we need is back to back to back to back to back to back to back to backers and we have a chance :mrgreen:

[Sosa21MVP]

Just in time for a big pennant chase...........oh nevermind. :stickman:

[Soonernation]

Fake Cobs rally time!!! :D

[Little Slide Rooter]

I wonder if theres anyone more baffled than the Cardinals at the absolute bed wetting of the Cubs and Brewers.

Worst defense in baseball

 

True, if by "worst" you mean "one of the three or four best."

Defense isn't the problem.

I'd really like to finish above .500 as I don't believe that the Cubs have finished above .500 for three straight seasons for a very long time.

Maybe he was referring strictly to Jake Fox?

They've hit on the past few it seems, so maybe we'll keep it up.

I'm too lazy, can someone go back and tell me how many of Milton's HRs have some in blowouts (either way)

[UMFan83]

Jake Fox was on one of the radio stations today and said he felt confident that the Cubs would be back in the division race soon haha.

[Schwarber Fan]

Cards win 1-0 obviously
