that was a AA at bat
Cedeno has really been pressing lately in the few at bats he has had. not the way to get more time from Lou
THIS IS OUR CENTURY!!
it would answer a few questions about his approach
"When I got to Chicago, fans came to Wrigley Field just to have fun, now they come to see us win. The expectations have changed, for the players and for the fans. It’s about winning." Kerry Wood, 7/14/08
I just meant he didn't deserve to play in Iowa with those swings.
I didn’t want to insult anyone in AA for drinking. :-)
THIS IS OUR CENTURY!!

2008 Cubs: Who needs nine innings, when you only need a 7th?
literally LOL
even though we’ve all seen the movie and know that was the next line, it was still funny that way

Our bats are still in a funk,
however, if our pitchers can just hang on to this lead, then what a boost to the teams confidence going home.
Don't blow it boys!
2 more runs would be HUGE tonight

I agree.
Considering how deep his place was in Lou’s doghouse last year, he’s come back this year and done a nice job.

Has Micah Owings been moved to the bullpen permanently?
Thought he was used the other night because they were shorthanded.

Don't see how they can
don’t think they have anyone to take his spot on a regular basis

Not sure, but he hasn't been pitching well.
Also, they have an off day tomorrow, so they can skip their fifth starter.
