  1. We're talking about the Cubs here, not the Brewers. For the last two months, everything has been going right for the Cubs. They rarely give up leads anymore, especially with Zambrano pitching.
  2. For those unfamiliar with induction, just because labor is induced doesn't mean it will just happen right away. My wife was induced and after about 24 hours, there had been almost no progress. We decided to have a c-section, since there was no guarantee that another 24 hours would make a difference. So, if Mrs. Linebrink was induced early Monday morning, the baby might not arrive until late that night, the next day, or later.
  3. I don't blame the bats for the first loss yesterday, as the six runs should have been enough, but at least the team understands something is wrong with scoring early and then going to sleep. From Ryan Braun: "I feel like recently we've had quite a few games similar to this when we score early and then we kind of let our guard down a little bit." "We can't do that anymore. I don't know if we necessarily relaxed or not, but we need to continue to put pressure on them, and we haven't been able to do that. You can't have this happen again."
  4. I look forward to reading the inevitable comment by Cordero: "It's not the first time it's happened, and it won't be the last." He says it every time he blows one. I know you have to have a short memory in this game, but it would be nice to hear that he's pissed off about it.
  5. So much for the momentum from yesterday. I honestly think Cordero is just plain bad. I don't know what else to say. This had the makings of such a nice upswing for the Brewers.
  6. We still have a Cordero appearance on the road to get through.
  7. Now the team just needs to get some sleep!
  8. YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  9. The Reds better bring in Valentin for the GWRBI.
  10. This is the puke.
  11. Seriously, every Cubs opponent must stop pitching to Aramis Ramirez late in close games. He's got to be hitting like .940 or something in the 9th inning.
  12. Shouse is a good choice. He typically only comes in for a batter or two (although he has shown the ability to pitch more lately), so using him for a mop-up inning shouldn't hurt his ability to pitch to a lefty tomorrow.
  13. Wow...Vargas is still pitching. Way to be a team player!
  14. They can't. Not tonight. Not when we finally had a good game. Not after what they did to us. Please, no.
  15. Stat of the night: Vargas allowed only one BB. Amazing how you can give up fewer runs when you don't give free passes. Good job by Claudio tonight.
  16. I would love to see Vargas make it through seven innings. Not sure his pitch count will allow that, though. I don't envy Yost's job when it comes to managing the bullpen this weekend.
  17. We really need to stop scoring. We'll score negative runs the next three games at this rate.
  18. What sucks is that you know that after this offensive explosion, we'll get as many hits in the remaining three games as we have tonight. That's just how it works, right?
  19. So, when Vargas finally gets guys to swing at the first or second pitch, they get base hits. To get guys out, he has to throw eight pitches.
  20. All these runs, all these hits, and Braun can't touch a lefty? What in the...?
  21. Come on, Scotty is great, man! Poker Superstars, on the other hand, might be the worst poker show on the television box. It's funny - I just opened ESPN Gamecast to follow the game and it said "DELAYED," but didn't show a score. Thus, I thought the game hadn't even started. I began reading the IGT only to start seeing posts about Hardy's RBI, etc. My big hope for this game, in particular, is that Vargas doesn't have his typical huge WHIP game. The Cards have a strong enough lineup where that would really, really hurt (really). Looks like, from the play-by-play, that he's been so-so, but he did get out of a jam in the 2nd, so that's good. Braun really needs to work on his throwing accuracy (and get that BA back above .350...slacker).
