7/10 Cubs(maddux) @ Marlins(Leiter) 12:05 WGN. We still suck

[Blueheart05]

OMG, Gelndon gives up the 2 run homer! :oops:

[YearofDaCubs]

Rusch sucks as a relief pitcher, but I've mentioned that on his last 3 appearances so it's nothing new.

[BeerHere]

Rusch is just plain bad out of the pen. I think he should be a prime trade candidate for a team that needs starting pitching.

 

Seconded

[Guancous]

Rusch has been pitching like Borowski lately.

[Blueheart05]

Nah, I think Glendon has a dead arm or something. Coming out of the bullpen has nothing to do with the location of his pitches... Edited July 10, 2005 by Blueheart05

[BeerHere]

Settle down Glendon. Just get some outs here.

[BeerHere]

STEEEEEEEEEK!

[Blueheart05]

Wow, a lucky swinging strikeout. That pitch was outside and low.

[BeerHere]

Anyone else think that Treenerd must be a wicken?

[Blueheart05]

2 outs and a man on third.

[Coach C]

Nice job by Gledon to battle back from a 3-0 to get him out.

 

1 more!

Santo opined that Rusch is not getting his normal movement on his pitches. That does sound like a dead arm to me.

[Coach C]

Cubs win! Cubs win!

Ditto.

 

The positive thing is the All-Star came at the right time for everyone to get their rest, and get geared up for the 2nd half of the season.
