He was 0-3 the first game, right? That would make him 1-6 through 2 games.
-
Cubs baseball is hard enough to watch as it is. Fix the damn high-pitched noise! -
Sounds like he is ready.
-
That is quite a stretch. Lou may be frustrated, but his comments after the game today in no way indicate to me that he would resign. As we've seen in the past, he often says things out of frustration and then completely changes his tune by the next morning.
-
Me fail english? That's unpossible!
-
Come on Howry, let's not let this one get out of reach!
-
It really is maddening to watch a team that is so utterly incapable of stringing wins together. The perception that the Cubs are underperforming simply isn't true. They are performing exactly how a bad team should.
-
I think they started during the Cubs/Sox series. I was at the game Wednesday night and really didn't care for the music at all. Call me old-fashioned or whatever, but it felt way too copycat and cheesy for Wrigley Field.
-
Has anyone else been hearing a high-pitched noise on Cubs broadcasts lately, or is it just me?
-
It is becomingly increasingly clear that Lou will be allowed to finish out the year with the Cubs. Does anyone know the last time a team allowed 2 consecutive managers' contracts to expire without firing or re-signing them?
-
I haven't seen Colvin's minor league splits, so maybe that is what you are referring to, but I surely wouldn't wouldn't say that he can't hit LHP based on a .263 average over 19 at bats. The strikeout rate is a definite concern though.
-
With the Cubs going nowhere fast this season, it sure seems to me that they would want to find out what they have in Colvin going into next season. That gives them plenty of justification to start him regularly over someone like Fukudome who only has one more year on his contract and will not be here long term. I'm still leaning toward the opinion that Colvin will eventually prove himself to be nothing more than a solid 4th outfielder, but the possibility of him succeeding as a starter sure appears better than it did prior to this season. I'm not willing to bet on his success based on a relatively small major league sample size, but I'm also not willing to dismiss him based on his minor league numbers. Why not let him start for an extended period of time and see what happens?
-
That kind of play will get you benched around these parts.
-
Koyie Hill just earned himself another week of starts.
-
I dislike the crappy theme songs, but I guess I'll get used to it.
-
Lee's bat looks soooooooo slow.
-
Why are we running with 2 on and the #3 hitter at the plate??? Ahhh!!!
-
Nice little rally going here. Who knew the Cubs could put a few hits together, in the same inning no less.
-
Good call. There's zero chance he's going to ever rebound after the stupid move of yanking him out of the rotation, making him a reliever and then having to work him back into the rotation. They better just release him and then set a big pile of money on fire just to be sure. This entire team is the equivelent of setting a big pile of money on fire. OK, let's just bench them all. Why do that when we can just make Geo the scapegoat?
-
Wow, I really thought Colvin was going for 2 there on a fairly routine single to center.
-
Zambrano may not be a great starter, but you surely can't blame the whole 4th inning on him.
-
Are the Cubs going to get this one in? If Chicago is getting the rain that we are in the south suburbs, I can't imagine the field will be playable tonight.
-
Prediction: Konerko gets hit by a pitch to tie the game.
-
I had to wait until the at bat was over to say this, but that isn't true. Beckham is an easy out bunt or no bunt.
-
Starting to rain... what does the radar look like?
