    The last time the Cubs started this well was 1984, when the Cubs started 26-15.

    Let's go Demp. Get Giles out.
  3. bukie
    Only Soriano can manage a seven pitch AB in which only one of them is called a ball.
  4. bukie
    Dempster going to pitch the 9th. It's ok, though, because he's done it before.

    The best thing about a high OBP is that in games where only 20% of your runners are scoring, you still get 4 runs.
  6. bukie
    It's what happens when you lead the league in OBP. Get used to it. 16 baserunners in 7 innings should lead to more than 4 runs being scored. Some bad breaks in the second inning cost the Cubs at least a couple runs, and in the 5th inning, 6 baserunners led to 4 runs. Beyond that, only the 7th inning was really disappointing, and even then Cedeno missed clearing the bases by a few feet.

    Fortunately, the Cub offense has been good enough all around so that an overall disappointing first day for Edmonds has been overcome by this point. Remember, Hendry needed an extra LH bat in the lineup in CF.

    C'mon Ronny. Been a while since you hit a grand slam.
  9. bukie
    Oh geez. Edmonds up with the bags loaded now in the 7th.
  10. bukie
    88 through 7 for Dempster. He'll probably come out to pitch the 8th, but if I were Lou, I'd have, say, Wuertz warming up. If the 8th goes quick and easy, Wuertz can start the 9th. Otherwise, Wuertz in the 8th, Wood in the 9th.

    Despite his .210 average, I am concerned about Greene here.
  12. bukie
    In his small sample size, Edmonds is hitting .333/.333/.333/.667 . Not sure how that's necessarily proving anything about being better or worse than Reed Johnson or Felix Pie.

    Nobody told Blanco that Maddux was done pitching.
  14. bukie
    4 run inning or 4+ run inning? If the latter, we scored 5 runs and 6 runs in an inning on Monday.. No, 4 run inning. They always get 5.
  15. bukie
    That was the Cubs first 4-run inning since Ronny's grand slam vs. the Mets.
  16. bukie
    The only thing needed to top this game off is a big Edmonds hit.
  17. bukie
    Well, he did give up 11 hits.
  18. bukie
    Warning track power. C'mon Aramis, haven't had a 5-run inning in a while.
  19. bukie
    Soriano is an awful matchup for Maddux, because Soriano can hit strikes, and Maddux doesn't often waste pitches.
  20. bukie
    Cub offense has decided that being patient just doesn't work with Maddux. 5 pitches, 4 singles.
  21. bukie
    Let's see how a lucky bounce can get the Padres out of this inning.
  22. bukie
    If that solo home run is by Edmonds, I'm curious how some people will accept it.
  23. bukie
    You offer a new perspective I had not previously considered.
  24. bukie
    how's the math today? 12 outs, four have been used up while he's at-bat. Right? Unless he caused an out during his single...no.
  25. bukie
    There were cheers. He's ruined everything today, though, by somehow making a wild pitch bounce off the wall while he was batting to kill one rally, then GIDP to kill a second.
