8/19 Cubs (Prior) vs. Rockies (Kim), 4:05pm - CSN

[CubsWin]

Get Prior a breather and a bigger lead.

Neither of those seem too likely to happen with him batting this inning.

Of course, what do I know?

 

At least he wont be getting much of a breather. :wink:

[CubsWin]

Williams looks like a winner. An 8.36 ERA and a WHIP over 2.

 

Lets go, Lawton!

[CubsWin]

Come on, Todd. Keep yourself perfect on the day...

[Fred Hornkohl]

Randy Williams with a 8.36 ERA ?? Well.... I boldly predict our offense will either explode for many runs.... or go into hibernation and score nothing.

tell yourself u got him for gerut

[CubsWin]

Is anyone else just about fed up with Lawton?

Well, he hasn't done much since coming to eh Cubs but he has too much previous success to expect that his poor performance will continue indefinitely, so, no, I'm not fed up with him.

Well, that's right. These guys are never "down the middle".... it's always one extreme or the other, no?

Getting there.

Although he does have a history of struggling in the second half. :|

Not much of one when you factor in the injuries.

Oh, I don't know.... seems to me I might have heard the phrase "feast or famine" once or twice on this board last year, no?
