4/24 Cubs (Hammel) @ Reds (Simon) 12:10 CDT WGN

[bukie]

Well, the Cubs pitching forgot to show up tonight, much like derwood the past 3 days, so we start fresh against Simon.

 

Hopefully the Cubs can score early and often, and chase Simon faster than the last time they faced him.

[Cubswin11]

First half Hammel, hopefully

[tawfiqmp]

Alfredo Simon killed a man

I went to bed early tonight to be able to wake up for this game... I expect good things. Edited April 24, 2016 by halplm

They will pull a dong train of back-to-back-to-back. Heyward-Rizzo-Bryant in the 3rd. Book it!

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Try not to suck today.

They will pull a dong train of back-to-back-to-back. Heyward-Rizzo-Bryant in the 3rd. Book it!

 

They will all be grandslams too. Back-to-back-to-back grandslams. Don't question it.

[Sammy Sofa]

Everyone put your flippers together for Seal Boy leading things off.

Alfredo Simon killed a man

 

and (probably) raped a woman.

[BigSlick]

La Stella and Sczcur on getaway day.

 

Hope they can put up some major dongage without Magic Dex. Also Alfredo Simon is a million years old and terrible so don't suck.

CUBS have outscored the opponents 14-7 in the 1st inning.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Has it really gotten to the point that Jorge is worse than Javy?

[bcl412]

Hope the Reds go back to suck.
