Official Silver Lining Thread

[razzzorsharp]

Oswalt pitching on Wednesday versus the Cubs meaning he will miss the Brewers series.

[razzzorsharp]

Wandy Rodrigues threw 120 pitches tonight, bodes well for next start.

First time here... I like this place. Let me give it a whirl...

 

We are not the Pittsburgh Pirates.

[vbkooler]

It is only one game, a blow out loss counts the same as blowing a 5 run lead in the 9th, and hey we have a day off tomorrow hopefully the Rockies will pound the cubs and we will pick up 1/2 a game.

[craigharmann]

Whenever the Rockies stop scoring runs, the Brewers will be able to start a long winning streak like they did after they were no-hit....any takers?

[Brily0204]

Cordero and Turnbow will be well rested for the Houston series.

 

The Rockies' short relievers will also be rested for the Cubs series.

[TauPentaRei]

by getting swept, we only had to pitch 24 innings.

 

the staff could not have handled 27 at this point in the season

[jjgott]

Is there really any silver lining in this game?

[rluzinski]

Joe Dillon had a nice game!

[jlau20]

We didn't give up the lead after getting up 5-0, 6-0, or 3-0 today.

We just never had the lead and in the process gave up 19 runs.

[HebrewHammer]

God I'd love to be in that locker room right now. I hope Yost throws crap around while screaming and then makes everyone stand right by him. He proceeds to get on a table and just starts peeing on everyone. Well, I wouldn't want to be peed on.

 

OK, the silver lining in todays amazing game is: We don't have to play here anymore this year?!

[DrWood]

turnbow hasn't given up a run in his last 5 games!

[davego]

I just ate strawberry pie!

[pebadger]

The first 82+ win season in 15 years is still a pretty good bet, and you could probably get a lot of action on it too.

[princeginterhallhelms04]

I really still think this team is going to be ok. Someone has to win the division and both the cubs and brewers are doing there best to let the cards steal it!

[Mr QL]

Silver lining; maybe Ned will get fired now? I doubt it.

[hawing]

I find a small silver lining when I see that people actually still want to post to this thread.

[BrewCrewForever]

Braun, Hart and Fielder are awesome! Not so much everyone else.

 

Joe Dillon with a very nice 3-4 game. Thats how you run with an opportunity when you get one. Well done Joe.

[SeriesFinale]

The Cubs have been looking very mortal as of late

The Cubs have been looking very mortal as of late.

[pitchleague]

I guess I now know how a Cardinal-fan buddy of mine felt last year. And look what happened to them!

[BrewCrewForever]

Astros 3 Cubs 0. But the Brewers losing followed by a Cubs loss can only feel good so many times. Then I want to win and see them lose and get a bigger lead for us.

[TerraceReserved]

The Cubs look like they finally are coming back down to Earth and losing some games. Not to say they won't get hot again, but it's nice to see.

[BrewCityUnit]

Atleast we are not the Dodgers. They have been shut out in consecutive games in Cincinatti and are falling out of the race in the West.

[danzig6767]

We're just unlucky on the road,it's gonna turn around any day now.
