neifi, you're worthless. boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[Fred Hornkohl]

Hey Fred, in the last, say, 30 days, could you compare ARam and Lee? Aramis has to be close to Lee's numbers at least.

I would have more confidence with Prior trying to drive in the run rather than Blanco.

[Omar]

White walks.

[Coach C]

Nice job Blanco.

 

Come on Mark, help yourself here.

[badger1679666666]

Anyone else sick of Dusty's obsession with RLRLRLR with Right handed pitchers?

 

Ramirez should ALWAYS be behind Lee. It's really starting to irritate me.

 

 

Come on Prior. Keep the basehit streak going.

Christ on a crutch. 12 homers and only 18 rbis? Good gravy, the 1-2 in front of him stunk.

[Blueheart05]

This Hudson isn't throwing strikes. Guys are swinging at the curve well off the plate.

[erik316wttn]

I always love when announcers say "Well, (name of pitcher) can handle the bat. He's hitting (low batting average) this year".

 

.212 is not handling the bat well. For a pitcher, maybe, but that means he's still a lousy hitter.

[marc_foust]

Or a walk.

 

same thing just without the run. that is ok because prior would love the rbi here.

Cy Hudson.

[Flames24Rulz]

cmon Mark, get walked.

[Flames24Rulz]

[Blueheart05]

Frustrating!

Two innings, two wasted opportunities.

Cubs fail to score again. It's okay! Theres still 7 innings..

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

2-0 Cubs. wait. :evil:

[Flames24Rulz]

Cubs fail to score again. It's okay! Theres still 7 innings..

yeah but it should be 2-0 and like i said yesterday, every run is valuable in this boombox of a ballpark.

Awesome, thanks. I wonder how many of Lee's runs are also Ramirez RBIs.

Cy Hudson.

 

Let's hope he can't continue to fool the hitters the second time around. Cubs start with JHJ in the top of the 3rd.

[badger1679666666]

congrats idiots, 2 for 2 on blown opportunities.

 

That's not as bad as the first one because it was the bottom of the order. OF course if Dusty got his head out of his rectum, he'd have had Ramirez behind Lee and we'd be up 1-0.
