I didn't know Hart could get outs

I kid. Lets score some runs on Johan just to mess with them

Gaudin & Hart

just wanted to make our win over the Mets all that much more dramatic and gut wrenching.

So we need three more innings out of the bullpen

No way we see Marmol or Wood. Wuertz and Howry it is

why do I think that Reyes left on third will come back to bite the Mets?

It's Bud Selig's fault.

Since we’re Cubs fans.

There was a Cubs fan in the Juice Box -- it sounded like Wrigley Field South. It's his fault.

They heard some lightning, and Berkman hid in the dugout. That's why they're losing.

8.10! wow.

this concludes the Angel Guzman ERA countdown. (unless he comes out for another inning) Thanks for watching.

Gaudin came in and loaded the bases

w/o getting an out and then Hart gave up a bases clearing triple.

Guzman has great stuff

I still want him on the playoff roster. He can come in for an inning or a jam and get the big strikeout

I like him

and i think he can contribute. If he’s healthy. He came back from TJ very quickly.

I like him more than most

He reminds me of Marmol a little as far as his potential impact on the pen.

Another nasty arm out there is a good thing

maybe if Gaudin doesn’t get it back, Guzman can step up and take up that 7th inning spot.

I guess this is my fault for not going

Per previous post I can’t go tomorrow either but I will be there Thursday along with 55 other Cub fans in one section.
We had better make it on the broadcast.

The giant Cubs group

Will be in Lodge section 32 starting in row A. I will probably post something Thursday for maybe meeting up but I am pretty sure
the Lodge section is accessible. I sat there last night and did not have to get through one the ushers who looks at every ticket like
the main floor.
You will be there ?

Not sure if that is LF or RF

But in a corner for sure. They had better not pass on showing a giant group of Cub fans.
