I won't lie. I want the Cubs to score here so bad. Score a lot here. So many runs that we end up winning the game and I can feel good about baseball and life for even just a few fleeting moments. Please, Cubs, please just give me that.
I'd be more excited if this was the bottom of the ninth. Then we'd only have to figure out a way to score, rather than score and also figure out a way not to blow the lead in the next half inning.
Any of us. Hurry. Put a uniform on. That only applies to Lillibridge. We'd literally be better off if any of us had taken his PAs to this point. Marmol is fixed! In that he's only going to give up one run instead of two or three? OK. I might be willing to agree with that.
I've pretty much been doing that but, good God, we've waited a long time for baseball and this is not the greeting I wanted. Yeah, for some reason I've gotten really angry really, really early this season. I'm pathetic, yes. But I'm also angry.
A 2014 second-half call-up would be the absolute best case scenario. Thanks. I've been wondering if he's more advanced than people thought. Being in the Majors at 22 wouldn't be unreal, so I was hoping beyond hope it could happen. But, yeah, wishful thinking.
