4/11 Cubs (Dempster) @ Astros (Figueroa) 7:05 pm CSN+

[Sammy Sofa]

Nobody was already up in the bullpen? Swell.

[cl smooth]

if barney could start walking he'd actually be a passable starter. though the walks would probably evaporate once pitchers realize he can't do much more than hit singles.

 

Hey, its lead to a 5+ year career for Ryan Theriot.

worked for mark grace for 15 years, of course it helped that he was a gold glover

 

and he was good for 30+ doubles/year.

[Sammy Sofa]

Phew.

[TruffleShuffle]

Damn you, Chris Johnson.

 

who is he and why can we not get him out?

[ctcf]

Demps appears to be tired.

[Careless]

That's a remarkable shattered bat.

[Yeti]

thats 2 bats in a row for sori

[Careless]

How do you not hit a home run therE?

[Keener98]

Man, I understand we have Russell starting tomorrow and hes only going to go a few innings, but I really dont like Dempster back out there for the 7th inning.

not that i want to test the theory, but i'd bet money barney would hit 30 doubles if given the job full time

[Keener98]

Get him the [expletive] out of there Jesus Christ

[Guest]

What is it about Dempster that makes managers want to leave him in there after he's gassed?

[ctcf]

Enough, Quade.

Over the span of Mark Grace's career?

[Yeti]

this isnt looking too good for demp

[Irrelevant Dude]

Why do the umpires stand around for 2 minutes discussing the call before they go to the video replay? Those were 2 completely unnecessary minutes.

[Yeti]

 

Over the span of Mark Grace's career?

for 15 years? no, but for a season or 2? sure

[Mark Priors Calves]

MLB needs a replay official at each game or someone in MLB offices in NYC watching all of these feeds to get the right call.

[Mark Priors Calves]

yikes, demp needs to go out of this game.

[inari]

Wow... this is not fun. I'm going to give up on the Cubs in April if they blow this game.

[Sammy Sofa]

Quade is a [expletive] moron.

[Mark Priors Calves]

^^^

that was before this homerun.

[Tryptamine]

Quade is straight up [expletive]. Unbelievable. Edited April 12, 2011 by Tryptamine

Who didn't see that coming???
