4/10 Cobs (Z) vs. Reds (Harang) 12:10 CST WGNTV

[GlassCow]

Theriot is an OBP machine from the leadoff spot.

[Cubswin11]

Bullpen:

ERA  WHIP K/BB HR/9
7.90 1.61 1.4 1.32

 

Starters:

In fairness to starters post-opening day:

 

Sans Z Fiasco:

ERA  WHIP K/BB HR/9
1.00 0.89 3.25 0.00

Yeah the Cobs wasted 3 very good starts by the rotation the last 3 games, sad we only got 1 W out of it.

[Andy]

No one on the Cubs seems to feel like swinging at strikes today.

[GlassCow]

Walter Johnson must be pitching against us today.

[Andy]

You're welcome for that inning, Harang. 0 of the 3 outs were recorded on pitches anywhere near the zone.

[MWV]

Z's pitcher's BABIP must be awful.

[GlassCow]

Well, that inning dramatically lowered Z's ERA anyway.

[Guest]

Fontenot has very good range. He may be the most underrated defensive 2B in the game.

[GlassCow]

This offense makes me want to gouge out my eyeballs.

[Cubswin11]

Sweet inning boys

[gflore34]

When was the last time Z threw a hitless inning? The no-hitter September 2008?

[Guancous]

An A&E camera crew will kick down our doors and drag us to Cubs Intervention.

[inari]

That was pretty funny.

[NotSoSober]

I hate Soriano even more seeing him in those [expletive] white shoes, nice D

[GlassCow]

Nice effort by Fonzie. At what point did he completely forget how to play baseball?

[Andy]

Pretty much any outfielder on our team except Soriano makes that catch.

[Guest]

I don't know if Soriano could get to that one, but he made it as hard and as embarrassing-looking as possible for himself.

[Cubswin11]

Just run to the [expletive] spot and catch the ball Soriano, stop backpedaling and twisting around like an ass.

[Schwarber Fan]

Ballgame.

[Andy]

Pretty much any outfielder on our team except Soriano makes that catch.

And it cost us a run.

[inari]

God. Why didnt they just walk him?

[GlassCow]

What a complete abomination this team is. Lou says they're close to the World Series ... I say they are close to a last place team in a relatively weak division.

[Cubswin11]

Runs, score them Cobs

[illiniguy]

I would rather Soriano play 2B sure he can't play it either, but those errors are only worth one base.

[DiamondMind]

What a complete abomination this team is. Lou says they're close to the World Series ... I say they are close to a last place team in a relatively weak division.

 

Oh come on, there's like, uh, the Astros and stuff.
