  1. They do it because "the Cubs always blow it" and OMG THEY'RE ABOUT TO DO IT AGAIN! Wait until the playoffs come and they break out the goats and black cats. :roll:
  2. He's getting outs. With the lead he has the last thing he should do is nibble around. Yes the Grand Slam looks bad but we're still talking a 5 run lead here.
  3. Well of course. He's given a bases loaded situation, he has to throw a strike on the first pitch. That wasn't all that unpredictable.
  4. LOL, whatever. Can we please just end this stupid ballgame now?
  5. The Gaudin injury is really disconcerting. Anytime you have to fly back to Chicago for "further tests" is never a good thing. I didn't even know about that. Yep, that's not very encouraging. Are we going to have anyone to go to outside of Marmol and Wood by the time the playoffs roll around?
  6. So what exactly happened to Miami anyway? They went completely down the tubes. They used to have every top recruit on the planet and just go out and destroy people.
  7. What pitch was that? Looked like it had almost no spin on it or something.
  8. I feel the need to do this because I've spent so much time being critical of Marquis, so here goes: =D> =D> :good: :thumbsup: :hug: :mrgreen: :clapping: Nice job Jason.
  9. The bullpen's been getting worked and I don't expect him to make the playoff roster. I'm fine with it. Rosters are expanded and the Cubs have an offday on Monday. I know the pen threw a lot of innings yesterday but this seems kind of pointless. Howry only threw 9 pitches yesterday. I say give him the ball and let him go. I'm not angry about it, I was just throwing it out there. It was good to see Jason get one last out and then get pulled. Leave on a good note.
  10. I'm not all that sure of the wisdom of keeping Marquis in here, either. He's actually been one of our better starters lately.
  11. If he does, Dusty might simply say screw you and walk him.
  12. Maybe this will exorcize the demons and we can get back to being the '08 Cubs.
  13. Haha In fairness to Ned, who is he going to bring in that gives the Crew a better chance to hold that 1 run lead? They don't really have anyone.
  14. Hahahahha. Well, I will sleep well tonight. Nice game Jason. VERY GOOD PERFORMANCE.
  15. Hmmmm......Marquis makes the playoff roster this year? :-s
  16. neither does ned yost. I have a feeling he'll just get lucky and not have to pay for it this season.
  17. Ned already admitted he won't take a pitcher out in this situation. Crew wins.
  18. Wow the Padres miss like every straight lazy fastball. They're horrid.
  19. AND THE LIGHTSWITCH HAS BEEN TURNED ON!!!
  20. LOL. Grind off that youngster's arm Dusty. Did he really say Cueto is pitching so he can "experience September baseball?" As if it matters when you aren't in the race.
  21. I wouldn't be suprised if the Padres don't score again in that series.
  22. Pretty nice move by Jason to wait for an inning to talk to the ump. Hopefully that clears the air and we get better calls. That guy looks like the kind of ump who will make bad calls to satisfy a grudge.
  23. Jesus ARam you never used to swing at crap like that.
