  1. Welp, Howry is clearly doing sexual favors to Lou Piniella
  2. atrocious management too many pitches on a top of the rotation guy in a not terribly meaningful game with the playoffs coming up, plus very likely could have cost us the game lou is bad at his job
  3. i hate when lou gets caught with his pants down like that, why did Dempster even come out for the sixth? it was so freaking silly
  4. I'm pretty furious because Dempster shouldn't have made it past that lead off double
  5. well no [expletive] [expletive]
  6. Absolutely no reason to keep Dempster in the game right now
  7. Dempster pitching a fine game but he probably wont go much more than 5
  8. Getting this run home would have been huge
  9. Good lord the 2008 Cubs are good I love this damn team
  10. nice job vance
  11. One of the more impressive things about his performance is the relatively low pitchcount for the game, 110 pitches for a complete game no hitter? pretty bad ass
  12. I don't want to keep jumping on a dead horse here but I am shocked to see Lee's slugging in the .360's Honestly dude? Where did that power go? He was showing it all in April and it never stayed with him.
  13. Gaudin is a really important piece to this team and its a very big blow that he can't pitch for us. For the third best reliever in the pen I'd much rather go to Gaudin with a proven track record than Samardzija, and I'd much rather never see Howry again. (Which would likely happen if Gaudin is...healthy)
  14. at least they are getting closer to winning the last 2 games
  15. i read somewhere that his floor is higher than Theriot's ceiling thats odd because we've already seen his floor, and it was the 2006 Experience and it was worse than anything theriot has ever done
  16. Dear Soul, I know I put in a really depressive, thought out post in the previous game thread. The Bears must have heard me from the heavens and delivered me to the promised land. They probably will be mediocre or worse this year, but that win was very very satisfying. Thanks for hanging in there
  17. that sucked 2 hard hit balls to end the inning
  18. what i thought was most embarrassing about that was how lazily the second basemen stepped on the bag and threw to 1st because of our catcher's speed
  19. wow that was not what i wanted why did that happen
  20. get some runs and dont record any outs
  21. ok bases loaded no outs score some runs
  22. The Cubs stunk the first time through the order yesterday also. Chill out. my like third. post. in. the. thread. no one reads it
  23. Strike one should have been an obvious ball 3, in his defense. However, a major leaguer SHOULD NOT SWING AT A CURVE IN THE DIRT Kinda reminded me of Sosa he used to swing at sliders 3 feet off the plate and in the dirt. Guess every batter (no matter how good he is) thinks "Oh screw it, I'll just swingat anything that comes now" every once in a while. Not someone like Pujols or Bonds I wish people more had the thought in their head "I'm going to force the pitcher to get me out" like a lot of the best batters think
  24. Strike one should have been an obvious ball 3, in his defense. However, a major leaguer SHOULD NOT SWING AT A CURVE IN THE DIRT Kinda reminded me of Sosa he used to swing at sliders 3 feet off the plate and in the dirt. they are very similar players
