Snazzy at bat by Barrett. -
LET'S GET SOME RUNS!!!
-
Oh thank you, my sweet Lord.
-
This is bad.
-
This is not good.
-
It's a damn crime it's Bonds instead of Junior out there beating the HR records. If he had stayed healthy, KGJ would have shattered Aaron's record.
-
Dusty has to sense how much I hate him right now. I'm screaming it as loud as I can.
-
Stupid, stupid, stupid, STUPID. Alright, there's no shut out...TAKE HIM OUT.
-
Just get home, do the happy dance over the grand slam and Z's great game (well, aside from the walks)...and then my jaw drops through the floor seeing Z come out to bat. 7 innings, 4 run lead or he's pitched 109 pitches...short of Z himself threatening serious bodily harm to anyone who pulls him out, there's no excuse for this.

Carlos is back to pitching at godlike levels so incredible not even this bunch of jerks can screw it up. Cubs win, 4-1.

How to stunt a young player's growth. by Dusty Baker
Sammy Sofa replied to RegulusBlue's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Murt don't fit the current mold. He tends to be too patient, and when he does adapt the team's moronic "hack 'n' slash" approach, he doesn't make it work, like Cedeno has been able to do. Nevermind that Cedeno was clearly an aggressive hitter to begin with and this one-note hitting philosophy flys completely in the face of all the positive things we've seen about Murton at the plate up until this point. Poor guy can't win for trying...if he does it Dusty's way, he's gonna go 0 for whatever and look terrible. If he does it the Murtowned way, he's defying Dusty, Clines and Sarge, and they're not gonna take too kindly to the flame-haired rookie not listening to their "brilliant" offensive approach. -
The main difference I see is he's not trying to bunt himself on base nearly as much as he has in the past. I don't know if Dusty and co. are telling him not to, or Juan knows something about himself...maybe's he's lost a step or two trying to bolt down to first base and that combined with the Wrigley grass (mowed or not, Dusty) has all but rendered him useless.

In other news, water is wet and we need air to live!

Every time the Cubs lose, they'll cut to a hilarious camera shot of Jazz being hurled out of the front entrance of Wrigley. Works for me!
-
Stop posting my booze-fueled dreams as if they were news. Thanks.

6/9 Cubs[Maddux] @ Reds[Ramirez] - 6:10 pm CT on CSN
Sammy Sofa replied to Uber's topic in Fred Hornkohl Game Thread Forum
Cubs lose, 5-0. And nobody really cares. -
Cabrera's significantly bigger this year, too. Hmmmmmmmmm...
-
Yeah, we just haven't given him enough chances!

Wood's velocity / Wood to be examined by doctor / ->DL
Sammy Sofa replied to TMan92's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
See all the other guys who had the same or very similar surgery. The numbers are very much not in Wood's favor, even with the advances in medical what not's in recent years. -
did hill kill your sister or something? Why the hatred? Why not give him a chance to develop? And I don't have a sister. But now I know why...
-
did hill kill your sister or something? Why the hatred? Why not give him a chance to develop? Because I highly doubt he'll ever be better than a thinner Glendon Rusch as a starter. I'd happily see him get a shot as a relief thrower...I think he'd find great success there. But as long as he's trotted as a starter...man, it's painful.
-
At one point can we officially rip on Hill and it's declared "fair?" Because I need to mark my calendar. In blood.
-
That really is a gorgeous shot. Can you blow it up any larger, JR? I'd make that my desktop in a heartbeat. If I was a bettin' man, I'd say Rocket gave at least one of those Outback kids a little chin music, just for the hell of it.
-
IF the Reds make the post-season, they're toast. Let 'em go.
-
They were swinging when 2-0 and 3-1. At bad pitches.
