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

I have a BAAADDD feeling about this. -
Bases Loaded, grounder Lee to Nomar for one, Nomar throws it into the dugout, two runs score. 3-2 cubs.
-
I have a feeling he won't be when Hairston is activated. Yeah, if he's not starting tonight with good career #s vs Oswalt, I have to think you may be right.
-
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GONE!
-
Through 2 innings: Zambrano- 20 pitches Oswalt- 36 pitches
-
Even though that inning went 1-2-3, every hitter worked the count for at least five pitches. That is the kind of inning that pays dividends around the fifth or sixth.
-
11 pitch inning with 2 Ks. Nice.
-
Yes! Off the glove.
-
I understand your point. The jist of what I was trying to point out is overall, Carlos has been absolutely dominant. It's just a couple of bad innings that disguise this.
-
In honor of the biggest game of the season to date (and out of complete boredom) I decided to sift through some numbers on our own Carlos Zambrano. ( 24 starts, 3.17 ERA, 1.20 WHIP) Some intersting facts: Subtract just THREE starts, and Carlos' ERA is a full run lower at 2.17, good for #2 in MLB. In fact taking away just the disaster INNING in Milwaukee and his ERA stands at 2.76 24 Total starts 10 unbelievable starts in which he has 81 innings and only 3 ER 7 good starts in which he has 47 innings and 17 ER 7 poor starts in which he has 32 innings and 35 ER These numbers back up the feeling I have had for awhile.... If not for a few lackadaisical innings, we would be seeing a lot of Clemens/Zambrano discussions.
-
Granted, the pitching has been atrocious. But the offense should by no means get off the hook. Facing Wandy Rodriguez in this park should yield more than four runs.
-
I'm on record. If we win this game, we win the World Series.
-
Okay, we need to average 2.5 runs per inning to win this game. Of course, we also have to give up zero.....so....
-
Anyone know whos has gotten the most ABs for the cubs this season? That's right.................Jeromy Burnitz!!!! This is not good, by the way.
-
Um.. I say bring up West Tenn.
-
You know, I had given up, and was starting to enjoy watching the season de-rail (in hopes that Dusty would be fired) The we have to go and look so good against St. Louis, and I get sucked back in. Now this.
-
Game. Set. Match. Season.
-
Ouch. We have to win this game.
-
If Aram was just missing on pitches in the zone, I could live with it. However, he is chasing pitches out of the zone that you can't do ANYTHING with. His approach would suggest he is TRYING to ground into DPs.
-
Well, it WAS Jason Lane. Didnt Jason Lane have a grand slam against Prior earlier in the year? My point was that Jason Lane has a tendency to strike out. He doens't have good zone judgement.
-
Well, it WAS Jason Lane.
-
I just don't see whats not to like with Matt Murton. He is the kind of hitter I love to watch.
-
Bottom line, we're facing Wandy Rodriguez, Andy Pettite and Roy Oswalt this series. This is a Must-Win.
-
agreed I would pitch around Blanco to face Macias in a double play situation anyday.
