9/2 Houston (Paulino) @ Cubs (Lilly) 1:20 CT CSN

[CubbieBum]

Hey hey we won a game and we got Lilly on the mound for this game. Maybe we can start a win streak.

 

Ted Lilly (9-8, 3.35 ERA 1.11 WHIP, 142.1 INN 118 SO)

 

vs.

 

Felipe Paulino (2-6, 6.96 ERA 1.72 WHIP, 64.2 INN 58 SO)

 

 

Anyone else notice how few walks Lilly has given up this year. 29 walks compared to 118 strikeouts.

Tied with Florida in the loss column.

 

Win this one.

[Magdal]

Losing this game is not an option....Cards beat Brew and Cubs beat Stro's and it's their asses. Tie Fla tomorro and take it one game at a time.

 

Im convinced that LA, Col and SF will beat each other up.

 

This is just now getting to be fun!

[Little Slide Rooter]

We have our ace on the mound vs. a stop gap. no reason not to win.

Now that's a forfeit lineup.

[soapy]

Hill again. Day game after a night game, no less. eff u, Lou.

[laurens]

Don't forget: this is Felipe Paulino we're playing. I think the I-Cubs could win against this guy.

I've thought that about every game this homestand with the exception of Roy.

How is this fun? It's still going to take a miracle to get into the playoffs.

 

I think this sucks but I guess that's just me. We're 4-4 on a homestand where we needed to be 7-1 if we had any shot of catching the leaders in the WC race.

At least it's Andres and not Miles at SS. Why Baker and Blanco are not flip flopped in the order is a mystery to me though.

Shortstop's gotta bat second, dude.

[NotSoSober]

Terrible lineup, but at least Berkman is taking the day off.

May as well go all out and start Hoffpauir and Fuld for Lee and Fuku.

[SouthSideRyan]

Andres Blanco batting 2nd...

Andres Blanco batting 2nd...

 

Hes a SS man where else do you think he should bat? Come on

[illiniguy]

We might have the best leadoff hitter in the NL. If only someone would tell Lou.

[Schwarber Fan]

None of those called strikes were strikes

 

laughable

[soapy]

keep it going, Milton

[Schwarber Fan]

way to run it out

[Moon Rock]

See I like Milton but you can see why a lot of this fanbase hates him. You have to run that out.

REPLAYS SHOWED BRADLEY TRIPPED! Once again, our fanbase is full of idiots.
