7/30 CUBS (Villanueva/Arrieta) vs. MIL (Gallardo/Thornburg)

[Castros trade value]

Hitting is fun!

[Hairyducked Idiot]

This is fun.

[Thed Hoyerstein]

According to Yahoo!, each hit this inning has been "shallow". Are hits just falling in?

[bukie]

How many more runs do the Cubs need to score here for the perception of the offense to go from awful to mediocre?

Line drives to the outfield accept for Castillo's, which was hit in the hole.

[jersey cubs fan]

all with two outs? that's always fun

[Guest]

Well that went downhill quickly.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

James Russel is a LOOGY.

[Careless]

Way to go, Russell

[Guest]

Ugh

[InconspicuousZ28]

First pitch from Russell, a 3 run dinger to a guy who had 1 HR all damn season.

[Castros trade value]

Boooooooo

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Trade everyone for bullpen guys next year. This is so tiresome.

[Careless]

"take me out to the park" from an ex-player

[Little Slide Rooter]

Is it safe to say that all that time in which Russell was our only reliable reliever is taking it's toll on him?

[Castros trade value]

Jeez, the 7th inning guest conducter Rich Nye manages to suck more than the usual idiots. Get rid of this [expletive]!

[Guest]

Yeah, a lot of times the singers suck, but I have no idea why people get so upset over it.

 

The awful interviews, however, different story. That [expletive] chef or whatever that admitted he knew nothing about nor cared about baseball last year was an embarrassment.

This guy's interview managed to hit on the all important, "back in my day pitch count didn't matter and you were expected to finish the game" gibberish. He pitched in parts of 5 seasons and went over 200 innings once. He was done by 25.

[Guest]

DeJesus-Lake-Rizzo up this inning. Need to get runs here.

[jersey cubs fan]

Orion Samuelson has the best damn goofy mofo voice out there.

Agree. Plus we gotta start using Russell correctly.

[Guest]

Gonzalez didn't throw a guaranteed strike in that at-bat and Lake still managed to strike out.

[bukie]

On a good note, the Cubs now actually have two regulars in the top 25 in MLB in walk rate.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Years from now, when looking back at old Cubs rosters, I shall furrow my brow and ask myself "who the hell was Gillespie?"

[Bryants Disco Ball]

I have nothing against him as a human being and I'm quite sure he's a great person, but Keith Moreland makes me feel lethargic and sad about life when forced to listen to him.
