  1. Wow. Wide Zone had better be there for Ted as well.
  2. Albers? Baltimore seems determined to destroy his arm. Earlier this season, he started a game, then went into the bullpen for 2 weeks throwing 10-15 pitches per outing. At the end of that time, he threw 16 pitches one day, 18 pitches the next, then had 2 days rest, and then they let him throw 94 pitches in a game he started. This time it's much less crazy. He threw 36 pitches on the 21st, so he's had 3 days rest. It will be interesting to see how long Baltimore throws him out there though. He is a high walk guy and is only a decent strikeout pitcher, so this is one pitcher the Cubs should absolutely take pitches against. There's a lot of reward and not that much risk. Note that I'm not saying the Cubs should look at every first pitch. I would never recommend that for any pitcher. But he's exactly the type of pitcher you shouldn't be worried about getting into deeper counts with, so go up there on the first pitch acting like it's a 2-0 or 3-1 count and only swinging if the ball comes into one of your best hitting zones. He's also a pretty good ground ball guy, so the Cubs need to be wary of that with runners on. I do agree that the Cubs will probably go with a very similar lineup tonight as they did last night now unless Lou was very upset with Patterson's adventures out there. Nice call
  3. Mines working fine Is it strangely dimensioned? I mean there's a black box around the actual picture, but that's normal for me. I assumed it has to do with my monitor being widescreen.
  4. What's the book on Albers? Suppose to be any good?
  5. I used to really like Stone, but now he just seems like a bitter jerk.
  6. Well he did just make Kosuke look like a fool, but I'm not sure I would have gone with Hank either.
  7. This. I pretty much conceded the game a long time ago anyways. It sucks and it hurts, but if nothing else this team is resilient.
  8. OMG that was a FOOT outside. Oh well, at least they made it interesting. Go get em tomorrow.
  9. Hank White? Stranger things have happened. Let's do this Hank!
  10. Really bad at bat there. C'mon Kosuke!
  11. 89 MPH and down the heart...that one was served up there
  12. Slappy McScrapperton himself. Cedeno bomb for the win please....
  13. Looks like "DeBlowsa" didn't show up in the ninth tonight C'mon Ryan!
  14. Great, now he's gonna go home and hug his wife in the mouth and call her a lady. ps - go dero
  15. stupid masn hd orioles ad at the bottom of the screen
  16. well at least Lieber can get some work in. 14-1 over your last 15 home games is still not bad
  17. I should have remembered one of them, I was at that game....a heartbreaker :cray:
  18. Somewhere out there Dusty Baker is confused
  19. He's safe Buck, give it up.
