5/17 Rockies (Cook) @ Idiots (Wells) - 7:05 CST, CSN

[Careless]

So the question is: did Z go to the bullpen after the scoreless 8th with Marmol sure to be pulled in the bottom of the inning?

[Careless]

Wow, Giambi looks like a serial killer at this point, in that uniform

[Keener98]

Quit boo'ing him morons

Well, at least they're booing a guy who struck out twice and GIDP twice. Could be worse.

 

Actually I was talking about them boo'ing Betancourt for throwing to 1st base to keep Castro close

 

Fans always boo when an opposing pitcher throws to first .... and I have no idea why.

 

Never understood it either, it really is ignorant

[NotSoSober]

Time for a Soto walk-off, but Nady will probably bat for Marmol instead

[Soul]

I highly recommend scoring the winning run right here

Because it slows down the game and usually happens when their team is rallying

You don't pinch-hit the backup catcher dude.

Well, you obviously have to keep your star catcher in case of an injury to hill.

[RedFlash]

I know it won't happen, but I would love for the Cubs to skirt the rules and place Lee and ARam in the 15 day DL with injuries, and the Cubs call up two players who might actually be productive. I think the Cubs will be alright with Nady at first and Baker at 3rd and the Cubs bringing up two players that can't be worse then the players who are currently manning the "power corners" of this infield.

[coldsteel]

That is not heartfelt booing, just light-hearted fun at the ballpark. Kinda like when opposing manager comes out to argue a call, or opposing team takes too much time blabbing on the mound. Not serious.

I think most know the pitcher has to employ his strategy. It's an excuse to boo the opposing team, so they boo. I've got no problem with it

[Careless]

Obviously you want your pinch hitter here to be a guy hitting at the Mendoza line

LOL wow

:-)) This idiot manager is just too predictable, I"m shocked he wasn't rewarded with a start tonight for the game winner yesterday

I only boo when the pitcher is obviously stalling and throws over there 3 or 4 times before throwing the next pitch.

Desparate times, son.

Extra innings! Free baseball isn't very fun when it is this bad.

In March I was debating getting the MLB.tv package again this year.

 

Glad I saved my hundred bucks.

Now if you want serious heartfelt booing... bring Hendry in to be the guest conductor.

I'm calling bullshisting on that one E.

Fukudome was taking no chances an ump was blowing that call, he was ready to throw it in to second.

Did anyone see How I Met Your Mother tonight? The whole episode talked about baggage everyone carries in life. At the end, they showed people walking down a busy street carrying their imaginary baggage, each one labeled on the suitcase what that baggage was. Right in the middle, some guy walked by with probably the biggest suitcase of them all and on it the suitcase it said "Cubs fan".

 

ha ha HA.
