Glad he kept Shark in line for the W.

 

You shouldn't care about that dumb stat because it's dumb.

 

Like really really dumb. Like dumber than almost any.

Who pitches the 9th? Russell?

 

I'd imagine so.

I think I have to follow through with this Len thing; the last time I made such a pledge it was promising to go to church every week if the Cubs won a game in 2008. Well, that game turned out to be the Aramis walkoff homer against Milwaukee and the whole going to church thing lasted about two weeks before I gave up and everything's been awful since.

Usually, yes, but in a season like this stats, are all we got, be they of the practical or superficial variety .

[expletive] it, they should give the role back to Marmol. If he can thrive in the closer role once again for a few months, he could build up his trade value. After that, they can experiment.

Or keep Camp in the game?

Cashner reached 102 in the Mather AB

If it was somebody's potential 300th win, or a retiring pitcher's potential last outing, I could see caring. But Shark is 4-3 on the year and 16-12 for his career, so I can't imagine any reason to care about whether or not he is in-line for the win.

 

If anything, more wins for Shark this season will just make him more expensive next season.

So next time you go back to church it's to baptize baby Len?

[Little Slide Rooter]

GD had Cashner hitting 102 on the first pitch to Soriano. Why'd we give him up again? Oh yeah, Hendry guy. That and Rizzo.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 12-8 when they get they get at least 9 hits .... 4-24 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Sammy Sofa]

So next time you go back to church it's to baptize baby Len?

 

Damn right.

So next time you go back to church it's to baptize baby Len?

 

I don't see this happening. It would require Mojo to leave his mom's basement at least twice.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 10-6 when they get they get at least 10 hits .... 6-26 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[jersey cubs fan]

90 mph changeup

[Fast Freddie Bynum]

So next time you go back to church it's to baptize baby Len?

 

+1 :good:

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 13-1 when they lead at the end of the 8th inning.... 3-31 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

Pretty sure it was mostly due to Rizzo...

[Hairyducked Idiot]

But the moment was ruined by the three-minute delay while he tried to sew his shoulder back on.

[Fast Freddie Bynum]

How many times do you see it, man makes amazing play to keep the lead then gets and key rbi insurance run but gets thrown out at 2nd?

This guy with the brutal left hook out of nowhere!

[jersey cubs fan]

Who pitches the 9th? Russell?

 

I'd imagine so.

Or keep Camp in the game?

 

He threw 9 pitches, 4 for strikes, and at least one was very hard hit. He wasn't exactly dealing there.

[SouthSideRyan]

Uhh yeah, why is Soriano still out there?

[SouthSideRyan]

So next time you go back to church it's to baptize baby Len?

 

+1 :good:

 

I've always wanted a godson named Len.
