Who says Cubs catchers can't hit?? -
Do the OFers ever make a simple catch out there? Seems like they are always a step away from a collision
-
Is it just me or do Rich Hill's pitches look crisper today? Maybe I'm just noticing that because they aren't geting pounded around the ballpark
-
Good now Lincecum has to run the bases. Maybe he'll tire out there a bit
-
I would too if I was a 48th round pick out of HS and I knew I had potential.
-
Pat just quoted some numbers from a start of his not too long ago against AZ - 7IP, 3H, 0R, 0BB, 12K. Apparently he at least has the potential to be a stud. His starts seem to either be really good or really bad. When his control is on look out. If it's off, he can be really wild and a patient team will take advantage like Milwaukee did a few weeks back.

I'm not a huge fan of the sarcasm font, but it seems to be the norm in a number of forums, and it is pretty effective so there are no "are you being sarcastic?" posts for clarity, so I vote that it stays
-
I predict Soriano, LF Theriot, SS Lee, 1B Ramirez, 3B Ward, RF DeRosa, 2B Pagan, CF K. Hill, C R. Hill, P
-
Bush has been pitching great lately. I expect the Brewers to win this one. Sucks that not only do they miss Webb, but we get him on Friday
-
I always thought this was the case too (showing up late and gettnig cheap seats), but I've heard 3 accounts of people tryin that this weekend and failing.

A Return of Sammy?

Sorry, we have too many crappy #21s on the Cubs -
SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP
-
Who would have thought when Theriot homered in the 4th to make it 7-6 that the score would remain the same heading into the 9th?
-
Yay, nice hit Pagan.
-
Well he almost walked in the tying run, but you gotta hand it to Wuertz, nice pitching that inning.
-
I think he's listening
-
I know, I would have hoped an inning that was Lee, Ramirez, Soriano, DeRosa would have gotten us better results. Now we have to rely on Wuertz and Howry to be shutdown
-
Dodgers are losing 2-1, Padres scoreless in the first. Just for the record, the Padres are the current wild card leaders, so their game is more important.
-
No ground to gain today in the Central race
-
C'mon Wuertz, no where to put Burke
-
Ugh, this is huge.
-
Uh oh

I was mildly frightened but it didn't look like he got ahold of it enough. I've seen Pujols hit some like that, and they still haven't landed. Yeah but he is an inhuman robot. Albert Pujols is either the best hitter in baseball or he's damn close. He has 266 career HR and he's played in a total of like 65 baseball games. He has a .418 career OBP. And a walk, mind you, ties the game. He is 12 feet tall, and each of his lats weighs 80 pounds. His bat is 60 inches long and is made of Bigfoot's spine. He is a monstrous monster who eats sliders. Not balls that were used to throw sliders, mind you -- he has figured out a way to eat the concept of sliders. The dude hits with a closed stance only because Marty Barrett bet him he couldn't hit with a closed stance like Barrett did and still win the MVP and Pujols did it just to stave off the boredom that had come from solving baseball. He once hit a home run on a hit-by-pitch. He has more hits left-handed than anyone in baseball history has right-handed -- and he is right handed. He completed an MD-PhD at Hopkins in one hour and gave a graduation address (in Greek), and he had to miss a game against the Pirates in 2003, and he still went 2-4 with a double. The home run he hit off Lidge in the NLCS....just now landed, in Banff. He is awesome.
