color me suspicious...

that his velocity has increased as the year has gone on (according to BB). I find that hard to believe at his age (42 in October).

it is a little bit of a shame shark

had to take the “L”; once again as in the past; the offense just couldn’t get it done…. :(

by brian custer on Sep 23, 2009 9:46 PM CDT reply actions

Whats funny, is you can totally tell the season is over

because there is no more vitriol from anyone.

The loss sucks, but it’s not heartbreaking anymore

Yes, I know I’m one who spews some vitriol from time to time, and even I am now indifferent to a loss like this

I guess I'm just a worrier, that's why my friends call me whiskers

shark, himself, was half

the offense… lol :(

hey it wouldn't be the 2009 Chicago Cubs

if a career minor league relief pitcher, making just his third start of the season didn’t completely shut us down
