05/06 COBS (Wells) @ Pittsburgh (Burres) 6:05 CDT, WGN

[bushwoodcc]

Burress is the no name du jour tonight to shut out the Cubs. 1-2-3 in the first for this pathetic offense.

[SouthSideRyan]

Anyone else just watch Steve Stone on CSN? Basically said that Ramirez doesn't go to Jamarillo for advice on hitting. Kaplan then commented that it is "known" that Ramirez had a talk with Jamarillo and told him that he was a veteran player and he knew what he needed to do to get out of his slump. Interesting....

 

Would it kill Theriot to get a hit to lead of the game?

 

We should trade him for Cesar Izturis.

 

I hope Steve Stone gets eaten by a lemur.

What in all hell

[Cubswin11]

Holy [expletive] Randy

[bushwoodcc]

8 straight balls and 2 walks for Wells to lead of the bottom of the first. :shock:

I'm so glad I've laid money down to think the Cubs could have actually beat the Pirates these last 2 nights

[Guest]

Theriot not even close enough to dive for that seventeen hopper.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Hopefully Wells can get it together, but if the Cubs are going to lose, at least do it with flying colors here in the first inning so I can reclaim the rest of my night.

[BCVM22]

One of those nights.

[Cubswin11]

And of course the Pirates get two [expletive] hits after the walks

Off to a great start. 2-0 might as well be 200-0.

[Cubswin11]

Doumit HR coming up

[Old Style]

Ugh. Horrible start. :(

[illiniguy]

Really nice series. We've played very well.

[bushwoodcc]

Hopefully Zambrano can come in for some work in the 7th. Edited May 6, 2010 by bushwoodcc

[Sammy Sofa]

Yikes, Wells doesn't have anything tonight. Thankfully there's stuff to watch at 7.

[NotSoSober]

This will turn out to be one of those nights where our starting pitching is (rarely for this year) horrid, and the offense actually shows up and we lose 10-8

[imb]

Who knew Randy Wells wasn't actually good? (oh, everyone)

[illiniguy]

"I guess it can happen to anybody"

 

Yeah Bob, its hard to believe that a former catcher turned starter could actually get hit hard in the big leagues. He's such a moron.

[MWV]

G'night, everybody.

I guess it's time to fertilize the yard, catch up on DVR recordings, and check back in a couple hours for the score.

[E.J.]

It's 5-0? Haha. We're about to get swept by the Pirates.

[bushwoodcc]

5-0 and still only 1 out. Swept by the Pirates?....last time that happened? 2006. This year's Cubs could be just as terrible.

[Cubswin11]

It's safe to say the league has figured out Randy Wells
