9/15 Crew (Gallardo) @ Cubs (Z) 7:05 PM CSN

[Schwarber Fan]

Cardinals losing

 

not sure how to feel about it

[Irrelevant Dude]

I have never seen a pitcher melt down as bad as Carlos the minute things start not going his way. What an idiot.

He still could have been out of that inning with the lead if we have a real shortstop.

I realize it was only one occasion, but Randy Wells seemed to be ok escaping a 3-error inning with only 2 runs. The defense may not have helped Zambrano, but he shouldn't completely fall apart whenever something bad happens.

and there has been times when Z has pitched through it as well.

There have been occasions when he has pitched through trouble, but he melts down more than he should. He is outstanding at times, bue he is simply not a reliable pitcher.

Wow, has Gallardo really never gotten DLee out even once this year?

[Schwarber Fan]

This the the perfect time for an AramSlam

[haubrich91]

God that almost gave me a heart attack.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Some Brewer is SO getting plunked.

[bcl412]

So I glanced at the standings and saw the loss column deficit and considered that coming back is possible. This is the first Cubs game I've watched in a few weeks. The question I have for myself is why do I think we have a shot?

[Little Slide Rooter]

Damn, Coffey makes Soto look like Alexei Ramirez.

You failed basic math? :P

[haubrich91]

Soto is a beast.

 

He says to Lou..."BENCH THIS"!

[Little Slide Rooter]

How nice of Geovany to finally join the team, and it only took almost losing his job to a career minor league journeyman.

Be like me and stop thinking about it and quietly hope it continues. :wink:

[haubrich91]

This scoring thing is pretty fun.

[Cubswin11]

Keep the pedal down boys

[Soonernation]

why couldn't they play like this in August?

I'm not even buying that he's got his job back in Lou's eyes

[Cubbies622]

They really are still in it... somewhat. Colorado plays some hard teams down the stretch and the cubs are hot enough to beat just about anyone right now. If they win today, which seems likely, they can be only 5.5 games back. Odds are still like 10% for them to come back from 5.5 back but still its better than it was a week or so ago.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Hes bringing in Mahoney

I caught myself thinking that too when I checked the standings last night and saw that they still have a nearly 2% chance of making the playoffs. 98 times out of 100 it won't happen, but there are always those 2 times. "So you're telling me there's a chance!"

 

The logical person in me knows that it isn't going to happen, but winter is long enough without baseball, so I at least want to enjoy semi-meaningful games while I can.

Bases loaded no outs for the Giants in the 1st

[Schwarber Fan]

1-0 Giants

[BCVM22]

Does it count as insurance when they're already up 5?

[Cubswin11]

1-0 Giants

Let's hope Zito can pitch like the $126 mil. he's getting paid

[Little Slide Rooter]

After The Smokies scored 1 in the 10th, Schlitter gave up a tying home run with 2 outs.

[Schwarber Fan]

2-0 Giants
