8/5 Cubs (Hill) @ Mets (Glavine) 6:10 CT on WGN

[Flames24Rulz]

That was impressive. This park is huge.

 

didn't hit a homerun in the bandbox in Philly, so were due for a bunch in this series :wink:

 

great going Macias :roll:

[ltb]

quality at bats by nomar, burnitz, and macias.

 

puke.

[OldHappyCubFan]

Another pathetic inning, minus the A-bomb

[Transmogrified Tiger]

This has not been the best of starts for Burnitz.

[SwisherSweet]

Way to help out the Mets defense Jeromy by ducking out of the way and not even sliding into the base, you FAT, LAZY SLOB.

[Southpaw191679666239]

i hope hill can go at least 7 today..then wood in the 8th and dempster in the 9th and walah cubs win.

 

That's nice, but the offense has to chime in sometime. ;)

 

 

you were saying?

 

I know what I was saying, I typed that after ARAM's HR... and it's only tied, they don't lead yet. The rest of that inning backs up my original statement. :P

I think he thought he was in a run down. They did send him.

Can someone explain to me what burnitz was doing on that play? Not sliding, or trying to take out the 2B? Pulling up short and then ducking?

[OldHappyCubFan]

Please DFA Burnitz next, this guy is the black hole for stinky offense.

[KatJ]

ARAMABOMB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Not much of one, but it counts just the same.

 

And Nomar promptly hits a weak grounder for an out. :(

 

Gawd, Nomar, why do you stink so much this season???

 

I hope that's sarcasm, and you're gonna give him more than one AB on his comeback.

 

Not sarcasm, just impatience and remembering the first month of the season. You should have seen him at ST - en fuego. The utter lack of production when the season began just floored me.

[sherwood921]

Haha...Ron told Dusty on the pregame "you've got to be patient with glavine because he doesn't give you anything good to hit"...Dusty replied telling him that "he either comes right at you and runs, or runs and then comes at you." Looks like the Cubs are sitting on the "he comes right at you" theory. Take a pitch guys.

[OldHappyCubFan]

You gotta give Nomar some more time though man. Hes on a new team, in a new city.

 

 

Our pitching has killed us the most, not offense.

Piazza draws a leadoff walk

Would have been a very easy double play, even if Burnitz would go in as hard as he can.

[badger1679666666]

Was that JHJ playing air guitar to Dire Straits? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

[OldHappyCubFan]

I'm torn if we should resign Nomar next season, or get a Furcal kind of player.

 

 

 

Its obvious Rich Hill isn't looking good today.

Yessiree

[Blueheart05]

Come on Barrett, two consecutive 3-0 counts and you dont go and talk to the pitcher? Take control.

Please don't ever make OHCF our GM. Thanks.

 

Throw a friggin strike Hill.

I think he may have been too close to slide once he realized that the second baseman gloved the ball.

 

So much for that generous outside corner...

 

You can't nibble with your fastball, Rich.

[OldHappyCubFan]

I was being a *tad* sarcastic Badger.

 

 

Sorry, my sarcasim isn't the best.

no kidding.

agreed.

:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

 

Is that you OHCF? Who kidnapped you?

[Flames24Rulz]

well this game isn't looking promising. Hill just doesn't have good stuff tonight.
