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

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.

No

[Old Style]

Well the sooner you get behind the longer you have to catch up.

[Sammy Sofa]

Hopefully Baker's ass blisters didn't start weeping.

 

BECAUSE LORD KNOWS I AM.

[NotSoSober]

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

Go back to your Byrd is hurt shtick, the guy has had 32 career starts with an ERA of 3.03 and a WHIP of 1.27. He probably won't keep that up, but sometimes pitchers have bad outings

[cheapseats]

Hopefully Zambrano can come in for some work in the 7th.

 

We needed to move him to the bullpen because we don't have any good relievers.

 

Also, our bench is not so good, so I suggest we start Koyie and Chad so we have Geo and DLee available as pinch hitters.

[bushwoodcc]

A high pop up to the second baseman for Aramis? No way.

woah 32 whole starts? stop the presses.

 

he had a fluke year, he's not good. Passable as a 5th guy maybe, on occasion.

[Cubswin11]

When was the last time Ramriez had a good ab? Seriously it's been a long time since he made good solid contact and did anything.

[bushwoodcc]

Well, at least Fonzie is still hitting.

Outside of a sac fly and some walks, it's probably been a while. Solid contact, a good while

[Sammy Sofa]

Can Zambrano even pitch on back to back days yet? Or are the Cubs willing to do so yet?

[BCVM22]

Can Zambrano even pitch on back to back days yet?

 

Lou: "Why not?" (no, seriously)

 

So... yes, I guess?

[Sammys Boombox]

This team is inspiring.

[Sammy Sofa]

Come on, Fart Master.

 

Hell, if I'm the Pirates I take the gamble and just walk Baker to face Wells.

Depends on what kind of baseball you play.

[UMFan83]

Wells ERA for the year up to 4.73 gah.

[Sammy Sofa]

That's not what I was hoping for, Fart Master.

[Sammy Sofa]

Lou, do us a favor and get tossed.

[Cubswin11]

Ramirez might seriously have a lower WAR so far this year than Juan Pierre Edited May 6, 2010 by Cubswin11

[NotSoSober]

nice call, wish lou would show some fire

[bushwoodcc]

Just listen to Bob's voice. I think he'd much rather get kicked in the nuts then watch this crap anymore. Way to throw it, Aramis.

[cheapseats]

That's not what I was hoping for, Fart Master.

 

Mark Derosa just hit an RBI double.

Bob sounds whiny because Doumit's catching isn't aesthetically pleasing to him.

Hahahahah! You're not seriously wishing they had DeRosa instead, right?

[Cubswin11]

WTF was that McCutchen? We'll take the free out.
