  1. not raining atm. The big storm is coming.
  2. Padres are the worst team in baseball offensively, and Marquis gave up 4 runs to them. (But to be fair, Z gave up 3 runs to the same Padres offense). The Cubs are a Top 3 Offense in baseball, so I doubt 1 win is going to beat the Cubs, especially with Estes on the mound. I say the final will be 9-4, Cubs. I suspect one win will be enough to win this
  3. 646 ops against lefties going into today. Higher against righties after that HR eysterday But generally correct
  4. Come on lightning! And it doesn't look like the storm is going to get here in time
  5. IBTL/I hate you, Jim Hendry
  6. The big problem with Lou is that he's had 2 really big, really stupid mistakes that he's been repeating for weeks. It's like a B student in math class who can't multiply by 2 and 5. Which mistakes are you referring to specifically? So many people have varying opinions on what he's doing wrong, so I'm honestly not sure which ones you're referring to. Really, though, on general philosophy, I'd probably give Lou a B+ to A-. Thus, the C range is taking into account mistakes he's made. Marmol usage and Pie benchiness That's what I'm saying. I don't think he's overusing Marmol too much (yet), but I don't like when he's using him. I also don't think he's committing unspeakable crimes against Pie (though signing Edmonds is pretty close), but I think he should get more at-bats. So yes, both of those mistakes factor into me lowering his overall grade. If you take out the stupid uses of Marmol. he's down to something like a 90 inning pace. High, but not absurd. With Pie, it's pure stupidity through and through. Johnson isn't just not hitting righties now, he's not hitting anything at all. There's no way Pie would be worse than Johnson has been in the last month
  7. Zambrano just said he's fine with the weather because he's from Alaska.
  8. They start their #1 and 2 pitchers against other teams 4 and 5s
  9. They're faking(?) nj accents. It's hard to fake an accent while singing, and it requires you to degrade your voice. I bet they could sound a heck of a lot better if they wanted to
  10. I'd say Z wants a HR or nothing here
  11. a grounder to third, easy out, 3b tries to get the out at third but loses to aramis, then throws to 1st, bad throw and the 1b was nowhere near the base (like he was heading to the dugout) and then no one's around to get the ball and the cubs score 3
  12. Was gonzalez on his way to the dugout, or what?
  13. It's too bad we don't have the bases loaded walks counter this season
  14. getting to fuk with the bases loaded is a bad idea.
  15. hairston must have a terrible arm not to try that
  16. please don't remind us of the 4 straight times they did that a few years ago
  17. Len: "The cubs would like to step on the Padres throat this inning" That's an expression that isn't used enough in professional sports announcing
  18. Soriano just might be out of the slump. praise jebus.
