Don't worry, Miggy will come through!

 

I was being completely serious with this post.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

OK, Jake, shut them down here. No allowing a home run to the first guy.

[Bigloubaby]

Clean bottom 6th and let's get some more in the seventh with the big guns.

Which means you were totally being sarcastic!

[weis21]

If we dont give up a run bottom 6 it will be a minor miracle

i love your positive vibes not more than a min after the cubs tie the game. keep up the good work.

I know we got bailed out but how many times have we gotten 1st and 2nd with 0 outs in the past week and hit into a DP?

The full-on, raging doom boner side that has taken over in me wants to say this will end up like last night. But I'm going to ignore that and say we win this thing.

Without looking I think 18.

[weis21]

It's OK. I like that when you get cut you bleed.

[UMFan83]

Miggy hit a home run and Jake is pitching in the 6th inning. What bizarro world are we in?

Don't worry, Miggy will come through!

My post was complete sarcasm. I admit it.

[gobigred]

Huge not giving up a run...seems lately any time this club actually does anything good they give it right back ...not totally average Jake too...things are looking up

[TMan92]

Great inning Jake.

Disagree. I like seeing bitterness every once in a while.

[David]

i don't have a hint of a doom boner but i think it's because i've missed most of these games

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Jake........is that you?

[weis21]

random side note: i still cannot believe montero is more than a year younger than me. that continues to blow my mind. he has such an old face.

Don't get too attached to Tuco.

we already have plenty of regulars that cover that quota.

 

it's a game thread so everyone sort of gets a free pass, but the over-the-top pessimism is tiresome.

[BigSlick]

lol at this team hitting a homer only after a double play so they don't even get the lead
