  1. It's only a matter of time before this game gets blown open. Rich Hill has nothing tonight.
  2. Remember when we were all kinda bracing for the Cubs to cool down and return to the old Cubs but we were kinda hoping that it was for real. Well it might not be. Hill and Marquis are slumping, the offense can't hit, and we've hit 8 HRs in July, last in the league. Time to worry is now.
  3. Yes, they'd really call it. That's exactly what the rule calls for, assuming the rain persists all night. Didn't they change the rules recently? I swear there have been more suspended games this season than previously... If its tied after 5 now or if the road team takes the lead in the top half of the inning, the game is suspended
  4. And its official. Time for the rain delay and cancelation. I am having a lot of anger thinking about the Cubs right now. I think I need a beer.
  5. So they can get the game in and screw the Cubs over at the same time
  6. With Aaron Harrang going tomorrow we need to win tonight if we want to have a chance to win this series
  7. in fairness...the whole league has dropped in homies this season thus far But not at that rate
  8. The Cubs main starting lineup (Soriano, Theriot, Lee, Ramirez, Floyd, DeRosa, Jones, Kendall) combined to hit 147 HRs last year, and that is including injury filled seasons by Lee and Floyd and Theriot spending most of the year in the minors. That same lineup after 100 games has combined to hit 57 HRs. They are on pace for 92 HRs for the year, a dropoff of 55 HOME RUNS.
  9. Time to potentially lose ground. 3 out of the division 2 out of the wild card if these scores hold (and yes its still early but the Cubs offense sucks)
  10. Seriously WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THE CUBS POWER?!?!?!
  11. game thread oops? ;) Most definitely :oops:
  12. Seriously, were all the Cubs on HGH last year and just quit? I've never seen so many warning track shots than on this team.
  13. Rich was living on the edge all game so far...time he finally got burned
  14. We better win with Milwaukee and San Diego both winning and the Diamondbacks with a rather bad pitching matchup.
  15. Thats because Kendall leaned into it, and our announcers aren't huge homers like the Sox ones. Well yeah, I knew why he did it... Not real sure why Kendall did that though...we needed the RBI. Because he realizes he sucks and can't get any rbi's? :lol: Yeah he used up his two hits for the week yesterday. As long as Kendall continues to get on base I'm not going to complain. At least he turned the order over. But there was a runner on third and he was realistically the best chance to drive him home. Even as bad as he is, hes still much more likely to get the runner home than Rich Hill.
  16. Yeah great job Kendall. Get hit so the pitcher comes up
  17. Rich is having a little trouble locating so far...
  18. I hope the White Sox DO get someone good, because that would weaken the Phillies and hurt their Wild Card chances. :D No kidding. People need to put things in perspective. The Phillies are much more of a competitor for the Cubs than the CWS, despite the rivalry. Plus we play the Phillies next week.
  19. Man I know the Reds are in last place, but that doesn't mean we need to play a man short to compensate. I mean they did just take 3/4 from the Brewers! Edit: Whoops, not only was I not the first person to make that joke, but the mistake was already corrected.
  20. Who do you cheer for between the Braves/DBacks? I would say the DBacks, even though they lead the Wild Card. Despite their winning streak, I still do not think they are good enough to get it done and will have a drop off. The Braves, on the verge of dealing for Tex, are looking dangerous.
  21. Sounds like it has to be an old rumor from before Jacque's recent surge. Why else would they want him?
  22. #*$@*$@ We should have been in on that
