Walk guys, walks end up scoring, and you don't cash in on bases loaded 1 out and scoring opportunities, you get exactly what you deserve. 3 runs off walks.

 

Had a chance to take a series at Wrigley from this hated team, and we Brewer'ed it away in classic Brewer fashion.

Well that was disgusting. Tempers any thoughts that that organization is any different this season. Bunch of losers. Always have been.

Tossed away back-to-back games at Wrigley.

 

They simply have to be able to close out games with multiple run leads in or after the 6th inning.

 

If this becomes a trend, then it will be a long, aggravating season.

I hate you, Brewers. If you're going to pull this garbage two straight games, pull it against the Marlins or the Padres, I really don't care, or at least I can get over it right away. But of course it had to be against the mother freaking Cubs. Of course it did.

All closers blow saves. Milone is a stop gap starter. Not overreacting to this loss.

 

It's two blown 3 run leads on back to back days, both of which we had chances and failed time and time again.

 

Emotionally, it's more aggravating because of who it came against.

When you literally trade away your entire bullpen, this is what happens.

 

 

Not sure how Smith or Thornburg could help this team on the DL.

I'm not even mad about the HR to Russell. Happens. Not a great pitch but at least he went after him. Better than a walkoff wild pitch .

 

What I'm mad about is, Torres walks a guy in the 6th, he comes around to score, it's 4-2. Knebel walks a guy in the 8th, he comes around to score, 4-3. Feliz walks a guy in the 9th, he comes around to score, 4-4. Unacceptable. THAT'S where we lost the game. We had control of this game and let them chip away at it little by little until we gave it up for the simple and stupid reason that we didn't throw strikes.

[sarcasm]And it's not like the Cubs are defending World Series Champions or anything, with that pathetic offense they have.[/sarcasm]

Shaw plus Dubon is more valuable than Thornburg longterm, just as: if Thornburg was healthy and if Thornburg was able to get the 4 out save today a win today, that would not be as valuable as the longterm value of Shaw & Dubon

Take it easy, Cub fan...... make yourself happy and Go bandwagon a "winner"

CC gave credit to,the cub hitters for a few of those late walks. Rightfully said they fought off a lot of pretty good pitches .....when you force pitchers to,throw 10 or 11 pitches many times walks are going to be the result.

 

They aren't the world champs because they stink.
