[Sammy Sofa]

Valentine has been eulogizing the Lou era while kissing the Ricketts' ass.

 

Yea after listening to him tonight, I think its pretty obvious he wants the job next year

 

Lord, please, yes.

Agreed.

[SpongeWorthy]

Theriot missed that by 6 inches.

[cubsfan5150]

Watch... here comes Hill, too freaking bad he didn't pinch run with Lilly.

[Tryptamine]

Even if they don't trade Theriot I just can't see anyway they retain him next year.

Agreed.

How old is Valentine? I am very intrigued by the idea of him managing us next year

[radarluv1]

Did we just PR with our last righty?

that was funny

[Sammy Sofa]

Ah well, good series.

[Keener98]

Pathetic Fuku, absolutely pathetic at bat

[BCVM22]

The only two ways that one could have ended.

[genbar]

Oh yeah, I forgot why Fuku wasn't playing.

[Tryptamine]

Nothing new to see here. Countless opportunities blown just like they have been all year.

True. They looked positively Cardinals-like.

[erik316wttn]

I'm not watching. Fukucopter?

[J.R.]

What a [expletive] joke.

[Sammy Sofa]

I'm not watching. Fukucopter?

 

Nope. Regular swinging k.

[hawkeyecub]

Jesus Kosuke, sometimes you don't look like you even see the ball against lefties. What was that?

 

You know what, that sucks. Until the Lopez HR I enjoyed that game as much as any game all year. It was a good, dramatic, exciting game with great broadcasting and an energetic crowd. Then some bum hits a HR off of Schlitter and we lose.

[TruffleShuffle]

dennys reyes and rich garces have to be related somehow

[Little Slide Rooter]

Another blown extra inning, opportunity filled home game. This type of thing is why were 9 games out instead of 4-5. Speaking of reasons were 9 games out, time to face the Astros, who along with the Pirates seem to only show up to work vs. the Cubs.

dennys reyes and rich garces have to be related somehow

 

I dont know who Rich Garces is, but Ill just assume hes a really fat guy with a really big head.

[UMFan83]

6-4 homestand....somehow this is progress. We went 5-2 against the contending teams and 1-2 against the teams that much worse than us even.

[Derwood]

That Marlon Byrd AB was sooooooooooo frustrating. I know he's been a good hitter this year, but jesus, take an effing strike before you start hacking away with 2 outs. Franklin has 2 pitches.....make him throw you a fastball before you go fishing for balls in the dirt. And then you take one right down the middle for a called 3rd. I should have just turned it off at that point

[Sammy Sofa]

That's the Marlon Byrd specialty: he's always an aggressive hitter at the plate.
