  1. If I'm Jones and I know I'm getting traded, I 'accidently' get picked off
  2. Why are you guys blaming this on the relievers or Lou? This loss goes squarely on Mike Fontenot for getting picked off 1st base in the 1st inning. He doesn't get picked off and this game is tied right now.
  3. On the bright side, I'm going to get a save for my fantasy team.
  4. Why the hell do you send Howry out there for the 3rd day in a row?? I know the bullpen is short but I'd think that there were better options out there.
  5. And thats a soul crushing, season ending loss. I know its only June but any positive momentum we could have had is long gone.
  6. Izturis is going to drive in a run with his glove....only for the rockies
  7. NICE! Cubs bring hitting sticks tonight! Now here comes the rest of the order...
  8. Darn....well if DeRosa doesn't get on, at least we are swinging the bats decently, but I cant help but think we wasted a good scoring chance
  9. Well a baserunning gaffe squashes a potential scoring opportunity again.
  10. This offense reminds me a lot of the Marlins 2003 offense. With a little more pitching this team could be a world series contender
  11. I would say so. Considering Dempster isn't available today, and Marquis isn't exactly known for his quality starts as of late, its quite a gamble to leave 10 pitchers available for this game, meaning that there has to be some good reason why a roster move wasn't made
  12. I don't think anyone said that. I said that if we won 2, I'd be ecstatic. It definitely doesn't look likely though. But that's why we play the games I guess
  13. Aramis' injuries are just something that we have to live with. I will take 120 games of 35+ HR 100 RBI production a year. It's not like we usually have to worry about having him healthy for the playoffs anyways.
  14. C'mon the Cubs are 7.5 games out of first. It's not like we are battling back and forth for first place. I am assuming the Brewers aren't even looking to this weekend as a 'big series'
  15. We are facing their 2 best pitchers in this series. I don't like our odds. If we win 2 of 3 I'll be ecstatic.
  16. I completely forgot about Angel Guzman...thats so weird. I guess thats what happens when the pen has been throwing the way it has.
  17. Are the Rockies really that irrelevant? I've heard people for the past month underestimating the teams talent. This is a good team and a tough series for us.
  18. Details? Check out the game thread after the 2nd inning. I didn't hear it but apparently he was cussing and calling the Cubs minor leaguers. For some reason Gameday Audio didn't cut the mics after the Rangers scored 3 runs and Ronnie started ranting (leads me to believe this happens on the regular). You could apparently hear a woman's voice say "Ronnie, stop it" after his rant as well.
  19. If you don't vote for Jon, he will ban you. He told me himself. Sorry Slugger
  20. Funny how all the vance voters are vocal about it, but the CM voters have been fairly quiet.
