Reds-Cubs thread

[JohnU]

I think you're underestimating the Cubs ability to suck ass

Well, if you hand it to them on a platter.

Russell and Gregg are good relief pitchers.

 

[JohnU]

So far, all that I am optimistic about is that Baltimore is ahead of Arizona 2-0 in the 5th.

 

[Kate Upton]

So Baker has apparently decided to put the relief pitcher in such a tough spot as to have no choice.

Given how this anemic offense performs, it's suicide. Why did he even let Homer go out there?

So for his genius move in the double steal, cancel that out with managerial stupidity.

I think he should have gotten Homer after the HR ball, but I don't have a problem with him starting the 7th.

And in the end, the relief situation worked out.

Remember?...Cubs suck

 

[JohnU]

10 consecutive outs ... this is so typically Reds.

Sucking is relative.

 

[JohnU]

Um 12 in a row.

 

[Kate Upton]

Heisey, Frazier, and Cozart are completely worthless with a bat in their hands.

Ah, yeah the other guys haven't exactly impressed me either.

Phillips has had a decent night. Hanigan? Not bad.

Other than that?

Yeah.

 

[Kate Upton]

Parra and Hoover are money these days

 

[JohnU]

Time for the Izturis 6-4-3 ...

 

[JohnU]

Well, a bad bunt is almost the same thing.

 

[Kate Upton]

Choo looks awful

 

[JohnU]

Our vaunted offense.

 

[JohnU]

Choo looks awful

Choo, overrated since the first of June.

 

[JohnU]

This one will not go extra innings.

 

[Kate Upton]

Nice play Izturis.

 

[JohnU]

So except for the occasional base on balls, I guess getting real base hits is optional.

 

[JohnU]

Beltran commits the cardinal sin (so to speak) thrown out at 3rd base to end the inning.

This game is gonna go until 2 AM.

I gotta get up in the morning.

Later John.

 

[JohnU]

THIS IS FUCKING UNREAL.
