7/2 Cubs (Samardzija) @ Braves (Hanson) 6:10 pm CDT, CSN

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 19-13 (.594) when they score first in the game.... 10-36 (.217) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

Campana strikes out at a pretty outrageous pace for someone with a .034 IsoP.

 

I was going to post this, but got side tracked. 23% of his PAs for the slappiest of slap hitters.

[pitchcs]

I'm watching the Braves telecast and they gave Starlin some [expletive], but then showed how far off the bag Rizzo was, to basically excuse him. They didn't even do that on the Chicago telecast?

 

 

No, but they showed Sveum talking to him and Rizzo and he wasn't pissed. Just talked it through to them so on same page going forward.

[El Duderino]

I didn't realize where Rizzo was at first either. I loved how Bob said he was "styling" :roll:

I really don't like Brenly.

 

I did agree with him being annoyed at Garza, though.

[rawaction]

So, much for that theory that Rizzo feasts on bad pitching in the PCL.

but vitters does

[Sammy Sofa]

I swear I'm not picking on the guy, but holy [expletive], LaHair looks [expletive] awful.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS pitchers have not recorded double digit strikeouts in their last 16 games..... and only 1 time in their last 29 games

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[davell]

Yeah, LaHair looks awful right now and I'm a supporter of his. Shark has looked great though.

[Magnetic Curses]

mr splitty really working tonight

[Sammy Sofa]

Shark is feasting.

His O-swing is terrible of late. I'm not sure if he's not seeing the ball well or if pitchers have found a breaking pitch to get him to consistently offer out of the zone, but that would take a level of research I'm not willing to put in at this point.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 15-30 (.333) when the opponents strike out at least 7 times.... 14-19 (.424) when they don't :scratch:

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 5-7 (.417) when their pitcher gets a hit.... 24-42 (.364) when he doesn't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[El Duderino]

Wow, I had no idea McCann was struggling so much this year. .293 OBP

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 14-4 (.778) when they hold the opponents scoreless through 5 innings..... 15-45 (.250) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Magnetic Curses]

oh open your [expletive] eyes you assholes

[Little Slide Rooter]

I think it would be pretty cool if Starlin Castro would break out of his slump.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Easy does it there, Sulley..... stress can kill, you know.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Last time the CUBS held the opponents to 1 hits in a game.... Sun 13 Jun 2010 (1 hits) in a 1-0 win at white sox

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 9-8 (.529) when the opponents strike out at least 9 times.... 20-41 (.328) when they don't
