Cubs Are 0-10 in 1 and 2 run ball games
abuck1220 replied to killthegoat06's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
that happens a lot when you throw terrible, terrible relief pitchers into close games. -
man, this team sucks. i figured they'd be able to compete for this terrible division, but i may be wrong.
-
also, i'm sick of all the clamoring for rocky "i pitched nine good innings in spring training" cherry. he's not the answer.
-
it goes in order from most expensive to least. or at least it will by the all-star break.
-
you'd think for $4 mil + a year howry, eyre, and dempster could at least do w/o the leadoff walks.
-
"Big money, multi-year contracts for middle relievers is a great allocation of resources." -Latroy Hawkins actually, that was a mike remlinger quote.
-
villaneuva pulls an eyre/howry and walks the leadoff guy.
-
jones saves howry's ass. i'm thinking it may be time to stop trusting these two in close games.
-
maybe he needs his add back.
-
don't worry everybody, howry's coming in.
-
my goodness, he sucks.
-
eyre is just atrocious. i don't care how many lefties are coming up, get him out.
-
but they said the pen was a strength...
-
here comes eyre to put some runs on the board. and there's one. unreal how much this guy sucks right now.

Barry Bonds is hitting the snot out of the baseball
abuck1220 replied to TB_11's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
except the duke guys didn't rape anyone and barry bonds took steroids. -
because the two relievers they count on the most in close games are awful.
-
fortunately for me, the week doesn't end when you go to bed. :D drew had a double, hr, sb and some other stuff and papelbon got the save + a strikeout. tight, high-scoring game...my third nail biter in a row.
-
murton better learn to play rf or he's not going to have much of a future with the cubs.
-
the standings have it right. and if you click on live scoring it has me winning by 10 or so.
-
some big games in the east...
-
i think i may have pulled this one off. all three of my games have come down to the sunday night game. ortiz did me in week 1, martin won it for me in week 2, and i think drew and papelbon won it for me this week. nothing like getting 60 points from the pen...
-
i guess just saying your bullpen is good doesn't make it so. the three worst pitchers in the pen might be the three highest paid.
-
nothing like losing with 320+ points. i also like that two cubs killed me with huge days today, yet it didn't help them win.

0-1 is much better. He is on the All Star track this year, no doubt. yeah, that's what i said. on that note, i'll leave the game thread to you whiny babies. -
