What are we trying to do? Secure a top 5 pick? Edited August 3, 2010 by bleedingblue

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 33-17 when they score first in the game.... 13-42 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Sammy Sofa]

Wells [expletive] sucks. It's one thing when a guy becomes more hittable when he misses he spots, but he turns games into batting practice when he's off.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Last time the CUBS allowed 5 runs in an inning.... Tue 27 Jul 10 (6 runs in the 7th inn) in a 6-1 loss at Houston

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Little Slide Rooter]

I think we can close the book on this one. With Z a non factor, Lilly gone, and everyone else back to earth, our rotation is officially worse than the Brewers, so I think its time to start focusing on battling the Astros for 4th.

If you're gonna suck, then SUCK.

[Little Slide Rooter]

What are we trying to do? Secure a top 5 pick?

 

With the Orioles, D Backs, Royals, Indians, Pirates, Mariners, and newly deconstructed Astros ahead of us, it will be tough, but I think that 6th ot 7th should be no problem. were in some bad, bad company.

[Soul]

Just another sorry night of numbness in the post-08 era of Cubs baseball.

[Little Slide Rooter]

With any Brewer starter other than Gallardo on the mound, this game would be very much in reach.

Two games puts us in 5th place. Piece o'cake !!

No way.

 

Randy Wolf, Manny Parra, Chris Narveson and Dave Bush would like to disagree with that.
