Actually, the CUBS' offensive support has been a little better for Maddux than than the rest of the staff as a whole.....

OUCH.

 

Do you think that TWalk is saying thanks for not trading me... 3-3 so far.

[Fred Hornkohl]

99 times out of a 100 Maddux fields that grounder.

I don't think Walker is going anywhere, in spite of that speculatory article in the Trib.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Wow !! Did I just jinx Maddux there, or what ??? :shock:

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

Hey, Fred, what is Nomar batting since coming back from the DL? He must be well above .300, right?

[otis89]

Why do our pitchers always have to have at least one inning where they implode? ](*,)

[otis89]

Wuertz just saved Maddux's butt there. For those with the game on TV, was Wuertz just absolutely fitlhty?

[Brian]

:wtg: Wuertz.
