6/29 Cubs (Samardzija) @ Mariners (Harang) - 6:15 pm CT FOX

[MWV]

Nice make-up, Bogusevic.

[Careless]

That really should not have been that close

[TruffleShuffle]

hank white is still around?!?!? jeez.

[Tryptamine]

hank white is still around?!?!? jeez.

 

Of course he is promptly walked in typical bullpen fashion.

[Sosa21MVP]

Win it for me! I can't take this oh-fer status any longer.

always a good move to walk a 41 year old backup catcher. those guys are dangerous.

[Careless]

I hate this game

[TruffleShuffle]

.

[Tryptamine]

Rookie will now get his first career hit to end the game.

[Schwarber Fan]

Gregg's been losing trade value by the appearance for a little while now. Disappointing.

[Schwarber Fan]

Must score in this inning. Pen will give up a run guaranteed.

[Schwarber Fan]

Should've called infield fly

[Schwarber Fan]

Ibanez walkoff. If it gets that far.

[TruffleShuffle]

Must score in this inning. Pen will give up a run guaranteed.

 

good call.

[DiamondMind]

that was in the .001% of the times that bunting is a profitable choice

 

go nate. that was pretty.

[Schwarber Fan]

SORIANO, the prime DH for sale!

[Sammy Sofa]

Alfonso Soriano: master of men and destiny. It was almost as if the bunt offended him.

[Guest]

Sori!!!!!

 

 

and not that anyone cares, but I fell asleep watching the game and woke up to them blowing it. I have Samardzija on my team too.

[TruffleShuffle]

oliver perez now? the mariners are like the witness protection program for past-their-prime ballplayers.

[Cubswin11]

Soriano in the midst of going on one of his streaks and it really couldn't come at a better time (trade value). 1.077 OPS over the last week.

[Schwarber Fan]

Give me one good reason not to leave Villanueva in.

And for about a month he had a brutal sub-.600 OPS. Soriano is what he is and everyone knows it at this point. He's a streaky player and nobody is going to be fooled into overpaying for him if they want him.

well, if he goes on a monster streak and ends up with an OPS similar to what he had last year (low 800s) before the trade deadline, he'd probably add to his value. but nobody is going to look and see a corner outfielder sub-700 ops and get excited about a hot week.

[InconspicuousZ28]

PH'ing a starting pitcher when you're down to your last out? OK, I guess.

Because Parker might be your closer after the trade deadline.
