  1. The people who are acting like the result of this game has no impact on the Cubs are very foolish.
  2. Soriano had no chance at that ball, but it's far from a pointless game
  3. It can't be. Based on his little "talk" with Howry I think it's pretty clear. Who else does Lou have confidence in?
  4. It's scary that Howry will probably be Lou's first choice after Marmol/Wood
  5. That had nothing to do with avoiding injury, he just flat out blew it.
  6. Screwup number 3 tonight for Soriano. I can't wait until that happens next week.
  7. Not Edmonds' fault. That was a hit & run all the way.
  8. If baserunning blunders was the end all to making a playoffs, then Ryan Theriot shouldn't be on the roster. Hoffpauir pulled a brain fart, but I still prefer him over Ward in the playoffs. There were also the 2 screwups in the outfield. I'm not saying I want Ward, I'm just saying I think that's who Lou will choose.
  9. Well that and smart pitching/taking advantage of the Cubs. When he was getting hammered early the announcers were talking about how he couldn't keep challenging the hitters and would have to try to get guys to chase pitches out of the zone. That's what he started doing in the 3rd inning and he got 4 straight outs on Soriano/Lee/Ramirez/Hoffpauir on K's out of the zone. That's what he's been doing since and the Cubs keep chasing.
  10. I think tonight is killing any chance Hoffpauir had of making the playoff roster.
  11. Indians take the lead and are still in business. Danks completely falling apart
  12. I don't find it amusing. I DO NOT want brewers in over mets. Philly Mets Brewers LA CC's workload Sheets Elbow Bullpen Defense In a 7 games series that team doesn't scare me at all. Santana/Pedro is a pretty tough combo in a short series in OCT. Are you unaware that Pedro is terrible? Yes but so is Suppan and you see how thats working for us. Huh? That makes no sense. So we should avoid terrible pitchers because we have 1 run off Suppan tonight? I thought someone was saying we shouldnt be scared of Pedro cause he's not great. Im just saying this offense has a habit of making mediocre pitching look really good so who cares what the matchups look like. lolol are you for real right now? So the pitching matchups are irrelevant in the postseason because sometimes we don't score against crappy pitchers? Wow.
  13. Dempster needs to not allow another run for his season ERA to end up under 3.

  15. Okay this casual play is officially pissing me off. I hope they don't regret it when Manny hits 5 home runs against us next week.

  17. As someone else just said, it DOES mean something. It means a lot. The Dodgers are a better team than the Mets and also have time to set up their rotation and get rested.
  18. Anybody else worried about the rotation going into the playoffs? Dempster/Zambrano/Harden have not looked goot lately.
  19. Umm, wow. This should not happen against Suppan
  20. Fontenot is probably going to finish the season with an OPS over .900. Pretty funny.
  21. I have more confidence in Harden, but I like Zambrano starting at home. It seems like he gets rattled much easier on the road.
  22. I'm more concerned that everything is up.
