The obvious solution is their 5th starter needs to pitch better
-
I dont think it was a bad call for Speier to wave Barrett because there were 2 outs

We got a shot tommorrow actually since Wood owns the crap out of the Reds. Dunn owns the crap out of Wood. Well Wood is going to take Dunn out then -

Did I miss something here? Why are you rooting for Atlanta??? Give me a break, unbelievable -
Well if the Cubs didnt they would of got shutout again
-
WOW that is horrible
-
What is Pierre swinging at?
-
you are correct sir He has sucked with runners on base the whole damn year. We should just hope that he starts sac bunting every time he's up with a runner on. Mind as well, but i doubt Ramirez knows how to bunt

Interesting fact

Why do you want them to win? Their chances of making the playoffs are just a little better than 1 in 400 at this point. Cubs management says it's too early to throw in the towel when they should be thinking about how to make this team better next year and the near future. This season is already a lost cause. It's not pessimism. It's realism. Check the simulations: http://www.baseballprospectus.com/statistics/ps_odds.php http://www.coolstandings.com/baseball_standings.asp?i=1 http://www.baseballprospectus.com/statistics/ps_oddspec.php Personally, I am rooting for them to lose right now, and I'm not ashamed to say it. We will not win as long as the current management stays in place. If the Cubs start winning some games now, they might finish in fourth or fifth place. If that's good enough for you, then I'm glad you're not the GM. Well then your not a cub fan if you are "rooting" for them to lose. That does not make any sense. Yeah its a tuff time to watch them play, but that being said I will NEVER root for them to lose.

Because Dusty loves giving away outs. Ok is there something wrong with moving a runner over to third base with no outs? It gave the cubs a run. Who knows if baker allowed hairston to swing away and he pops up in the infield then you have 1 out and pierre stuck on 2b still. Walker then grounds out 4-3 now you have 2 outs with pierre on third. Then Barrett flys out so now the score is 0-0 instead of 1-0. That is why Baker had Hairston bunting Yep. Bunting people over has worked well for us this year. How many runs have we scored again? How many sac bunts have there been this year? Ok how many clutch hits has Hairston had this year? NONE. Im not sure what is wrong with playing with a early lead. I guess you guys just want to the cubs to fail Ummmmm... what? Yeah everytime im on NSBB i hear someone say i hope we lose. What is that about??? ANd know im hearing how bad of a play it was for Hairston to bunt that does not make any sense. So you expect us to win by trying for one run instead of trying for a big inning with our pitching being abysmal? It's pretty obvious that small ball isn't working too well for us this year. Maybe we should try something else, no? It dosent work because the Cubs can never get on base to use small ball.

Your one of them who says "I hope we lose" can you tell me why you say that, and in my opinion i dont think it is sarcasm i really think you do want them to lose so they can fire Baker.

-
Good job Hairston

Easy to second guess the trade now
-
Wow Marshall pitched like a veteran there. Good job kid
-
Come on Marshall get out of this jam

So you want the OF to be even worse offensively? No i dont but Hunter will put up better numbers than Pierre would. HUnter is a guy who will sacrafice his body for the team something this cub team does not have. A real team player
