[Coach C]

And Gameday says Macias is in 2nd base, replacing Todd Walker

Sad. :(

Second guessing is easy but Dempster should have come in to face Casey.

 

It hurts to almost defend Dusty, but Casey is hitting .412 against Dempster in his career.

[Outshined_One]

Gotta hand it to the Cubs, at least they are creative and entertaining when they lose.

 

We must have all been Yankee fans in our past lives. That's the only way I can rationalize the torment we endure.

[hawkeyecub]

This is the right move, let's just hope Dempster has the control to not walk Kearns.

[nick23]

Sorry guys, but I almost want the Cubs to lose every game from here on out. Thats what it will take to get this clown to stop managing the team.

 

Dusty Baker is the WORST manager I've seen in a long time. Why would you bring out this kid who did his job, a second time with the bases almost loaded AGAIN??

that's a funny statement after reading your sig

[sethuel1]

Here's an idea. let's take out the hottest hitter on our team for a guy who doesn't belong on our or anyone else's roster, and plays crappy defense to boot.

[UMFan83]

Cub Killer Austin Kearns? Might as well balk in another run and get over the agony.

[illiniguy]

Dusty is an idiot for bringing in Novoa for a 2nd inning. Novoa is a moron for balking.

This is great I was hoping to not bring in Dempster. It isn't like this game is important for momentum before we go into Busch. Please Jim, fire Dusty it will be the biggest move you can make to help this team.

Man, oh man, oh man, oh man....

[chicubs]

this is nearly comical. pathetic.

[David]

Does Ronny C get to that ball?

[cubsfaninfla]

This is un-freaking-believable. :evil:

[Mushimus]

At least the Reds finished off in the 8th rather than beating us in extra inning. Today was a total team collapse including the manager.

[BleedCubbieBlue81]

Why do we even have a bullpen anymore?

[HerbalK]

I wonder if this game will provide the impetus to pull the trigger on a Kearns deal...

[Blueheart05]

I see widespread panic and hysteria have reached the board.

[OldHappyCubFan]

Hear that? Thats the sound of the Cubs going back to being a .500 team.

 

 

This team is far away from being a contender.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

Neifi is worthless.

[sethuel1]

Does Ronny C get to that ball?

No. He doesn't have the experience.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

And we're going to head to ST. Louis after losing a game in which we had a lead....

 

Williamson get healthy soon.

[wvcbxl]

this is nearly comical. pathetic.

 

I agree. this definitely has some comical merit. :pukel:

[UMFan83]

Everybody loves the Cubs, everyBODY love the Cubs, on WGN!

When were they ever anything but a .500 team?

Oh I thought it was the sound of the Astros passing us again.
