wierd too see D-Lee's average below 300

hopefully he picks it up soon and goes on a tear

Ya he could really use a day off

He’s been struggling a bit at the plate this homestand

Seriously...

...that slider has been Old Reliable for a good long time. Watching him lose it like that at the beginning of the season was kind of terrifying.

There we go. . .

Maybe a quick inning will get the bats back on track

I'd love to see our hitters get it together in the bottom half of this inning

quickly realizing how unusual it is...

for me to EXPECT a cubs team to score more than 4 EVERY game. I love this team.

do you think we’ll see Edmonds pinch hit today

by ARCubsFan on May 17, 2008 2:04 PM CDT   0 recs

hmmm, we need 2 runs in 9 batters, I think we have this won

Dunno on Edmonds

We could, but we also have Fonte and Ward, and Ward’s been gangbusters lately

Oh wait, man, it’s gonna be weird not putting him in as a Defensive substitute every game

how come they are waiting to put him on?

if he’s got a legit injury and cannot pinch hit, then why not call up someone who can?

Lieber

looks like he’s coming in. Let’s have the long-bull-pen-man leiber, rather than the starting lieber, ok?

well its not really greedy to ask for one hit between aramis, d-lee, or fukudome is it?

well I probably will on Wednesday

since today’s game is blacked out anyway, and I get the rest of the games until then. No point until then.

Following that blast...

...Soriano is now hitting .289/.325/.586. That’s a .911 OPS, 128 OPS+.

well... it is a tie game...

Lieber will probably go until his place in the order comes up…

the Cubs grab the lead…. hah

The must frustrating player in Cubs history. I hate him one minute, can’t live without him the next. He’s like my senior prom date..

speaking of kerry.

how did he get a save when dempster left with 1 out in the ninth and we’re up by 4, was it b/c there were men on base?
