4/20 Reds (Bailey) @ Cobs (Volstad) 1:20 pm CDT, CSN TV

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 0-8 when they allow a stolen base...... 3-2 when they don't.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Booo Byrds are out for that error.

 

*rim shot*

 

get it?

 

:lol:

[bcl412]

Why did the Cubs decide to go for an all out rebuild again? This really isn't fun at all.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Heisey singled to center field on a fielding error, E8, Votto & Bruce scored, Rolen to third, Heisey to second

Theo was really stressed out from all those high-pressure years in Boston, and Ricketts is a meatball who thinks that good players making too much money was a reason we were bad.

[JonJayCutler]

I've reached total apathy in record time this season.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Harris grounded out to first, unassisted, Rolen scored, Heisey to third

Yeah, that's all bullpoop.

This team is [expletive] garbage :lol:

Marlon Byrd is seriously my least favorite Cub in the last decade. Hate him more than Milton Bradley, who doesn't deserve to be hated. Guy is awful and when he was hitting he couldn't do it in the clutch. Terrible. Edited April 20, 2012 by Rizzo Smash

This is usually what stage 1 of a rebuild looks like. Yeah, it's not fun to watch or even follow via gameday but if this is still happening in 2014 than we can complain about the rebuild strategy.

Also, between the debt service on the Ricketts' purchase of the team and the Wrigley Field renovations, we have to prepare for our mid-market budget in the next few years.

Nice 41 pitch first inning for Volstad.

Does he go deeper than Shark (3.2 IP)?

Also we're cursed and this only happens to us.

[Rizzo Smash]

I'm so glad we're paying 90% of Zambrano's salary and all we got in return was Chris Volstad. Should have just kept Zambrano and had him destruct on this team. But no the fans wanted Zambrano gone. The same idiot fans that wanted Kerry Wood to come back another year. Theo just needs to do his own thing and stop listening to these fans that have supported a losing culture for decades.

I just hope sitting through whatever this is is worth it in a few years. This type of baseball, followed by more bad baseball would be tough to swallow.

DeJesus flied out to deep left field

[Hawk4Hall]

Well this isn't fun at all.

 

Just bring up the young guys. :stickman:
