4/10 Cubs (Wood) @ Rockies (Matzek) 3:10 WGN

[Guest]

guys, ron coomer is really really bad at color

 

and somehow, when he does play by play, he's 100x worse

 

Pat Hughes kinda sucks too, there I said it.

 

completely agreed, though if jonmdavis hears us say it we will likely take up residence on the bottom of lake michigan very soon.

 

now that dude jumped ship completely

[OleMissCub]

That was not how I anticipated a Jackson v CarGo AB going

[SouthSideRyan]

how does this piece of [expletive] throw 94-95 and not strike anybody out ever

 

Remember Kyle Farnsworth?

 

Like that.

 

Farnsworth struck everybody out

[Guest]

going 1-2 instead of 2-1 is so [expletive] annoying

[treebird]

going 1-2 instead of 2-1 is so [expletive] annoying

 

especially given that we haven't been over .500 in like 9000 days

[Guest]

lol the sox are about to lose to minnesota tho

[SouthSideRyan]

I really can't fathom why Schlitter was they brought up. I want to rip his stupid beard right out of his stupid face.

 

The options aren't pretty.

 

Edwards

Jokisch

Ortiz

Parker

Rosscup

 

ETA: It's the 6th man in the pen, the options aren't supposed to be pretty.

Dopes, you don't have to remove your hat for God Bless America

 

It's weird how that song is treated like the national anthem. Everyone awkwardly stares at each other not knowing if they should sing along, stand, put their hands on their hearts, or just sit and listen.

I hate that song so much.

90 MPH fastballs down the middle are hard to hit, guys.

[sneakypower]

so i guess Olt is blind again

I just assume he changed his name and became some level of UFC champion.

[SouthSideRyan]

Yeah, I thought Hammel was tomorrow

I thought it was common knowledge that he was thrown in prison for murdering ChocolateMilk.

Sunday, Hammel tomorrow

3 runs on 12 hits over 26 innings. I think we've had more than 12 misplays in the field this season already.

[OleMissCub]

The year that Morneau won the MVP he wasn't an All-Star. Wonder how many times that has happened.

I'd take Blake Parker or Rosscup over Schlitter. Those guys can at least miss bats. I hope they drive him almost all the way back to Des Moines and put him up on top of one of those wind turbines in western Iowa and leave him there.

 

Though as David said, the bigger problem is bringing him into a close game. In Colorado. If he must be on the team, he should be strictly a garbage time pitcher.

Lol

[SouthSideRyan]

And here come the pretzels.

They already had to use Motte just to get out of the 5th. There's only so many guys in the bullpen to use, and today is the first of 6 straight. The other real option was Jaxon, which probably would have resulted in further histrionics.

My hate for Schlitter is somewhat irrational. That said, and I'm probably alone here, I'd almost trust Jackson more.

My issue was that he didn't double switch Olt out for LaStella so Motte could pitch more than 1/3 of an inning.

 

And typing that sentence made me physically ill. Clamoring for La Stella and more Motte
