Bleed Cubbie Blue

I dunno if I'll be staying up for a lot of these west coast games...

…they just run so darn late. I don’t see any Twitter updates from Gordo yet, meaning the lineup is probably still being fiddled with. Even so, the Diamondbacks have scored the 2nd lowest total in the NL – 63 runs (we’ve scored 82) – and no one outside of Lopez and Reynolds is hitting the ball with anything above a 100 OPS+. Qualls already has 4 saves and a 12:1 K:B, so we do not want the ball in his hands.

I really would like to say the Cubbies are gonna win this one, but considering I have absolutely no idea what our lineup is gonna look like, I’ll just say we are gonna take at least 2/3 in this series. Keep em low, Theodore.

Dan

Who's gonna post the GIF?

I feel like watching Teddy slam the glove.

Yeah

I love that too!

That glove had it coming

It shouldn’t had held the ball that was hit…

You LOVE it? Oh man, why?

Because it reminds me of when we got murdered in the NLDS in 2007...

…Oh, wait, that’s not something I want to relive. Ever.

That was

A succesful season. Yes I would’ve like more, but it still was.

So try remembering the good things...not the painful sucky things.

Seriously though

Do you have the gif?

I'm glad no one posted it.

Let’s leave it in history where it belongs.

just wait

Crawdad or “Ol Pete” will come along and do it.

Unsteady Teddy

When I posted the Lilly gif it was in response to a numskull comment by Santo on how Lilly never lets anything get to him when he’s on the mound. Hello Ron? How soon Ron glossed over that comical meltdown by Unsteady Teddy.

what did I tellya folks?

ain’t he a peach?

Ain't you a ...

DrCrawdad - April 27, 2009 reply

Can't wait for this

Especially when the best thing I have to do right now is play ink ball.

GO CUBS GO!!!

lets go teddy!!!

KC in OK - April 27, 2009 reply

Twittermeyer...

Rami, Bradley still out. Lee too. 2-man bench for Cubs tonight./blockquote>

super

That's if you're counting each body as "1".

I wouldn’t count Joey as “1”, and I almost wouldn’t count Hill as “1”, either. So we are gonna have a catcher and a shitty outfielder on our bench tonight. Wow, this is great.

Why not for Hill?

He’s been great.

He's not bad this year, no no.

But he played in game #7…and game #17. Kinda hard for a guy to do that, even though he had a hit the other night. And he’s a catcher…that would probably have to play 3B or 1B if someone got hurt. I don’t like it.

And I hope Teddy pitches a complete game shutout and both of them STAY on the bench tonight.

The fact Bradley didnt hit the DL

is a joke

Just one more thing he hasn't hit this year

SackMan - April 27, 2009 reply

ill go with

heyooooo

Gordo Says:

Lineup: sori, riot, fuky, rejo, hoff, soto, font, miles, lilly.

Weak...

3 of our 4 premier offensive players are out.

yikes....I assume they must be somewhat optmisitc about one of the three

…Lee, Rami or Bradley to continue to go this shorthanded w/o any moves.

JB 23 - April 27, 2009 reply

Jeez, Reed's pressing already....

Cleanup?

carmen_fanzone - April 27, 2009 reply

Lilly batting 9th in that lineup?

LOL!

ChipSet - April 27, 2009 reply

I foresee lots of hitting and running

and attempting to manufacture runs with this lineup.

I hear they call that

small ball.

I remember hearing rumors in Spring Training

that the Cubs bench allowed them to play this “small ball.” We shall see if they actually can.

oftentime

the adjective “scrappy” is applied before this phrase, “small ball.”

or tonight

before the word lineup

CUBS SCRAPPY LINEUP

maybe they'll show it to us

onna tee-vee. Maybe Lou actually wrote that.

they go hand-in-hand, really.

along with “intangibles”

also

gutting it out. Toolsy.

add

hustling, diving, tenacious and “little things” to the pot, as well.

grippy

“a real player”.

add it all up

and you’ve got Ryan Theriot.

what about

these little screws here? They don’t seem to go anyplace.

Speaking of mlb extra innings...

Im new with the extra inning package. I live in the phoenix area. does anyone know if the cubs broadcast of the game will be blacked out? im not thrilled with the idea of having to listen to darren sutton for 9 innings.

Any game on your local broadcast schedule will be blacked out.

Cripes!

thank goodness ill be in attendance for tomorrow nights game. i cant handle Sutton.

On FSN Comcast here in Tucson

tucsoncubsfan - April 27, 2009 reply

Do this:

Take the worst possible scenario, apply it to you, pay $150 to MLB, and that’s probably what’s gonna happen.

Gordo also says that Z is listed as "extra hitter" on lineup card.

wow.

This team needs

Micah Owings….

No but Marquis would be nice

Doggie Stalker - April 27, 2009 reply

+21

Oh sweet Jesus...

…my first three unborn to see Zambrano play 3B tonight.

easy for you to say three considering you won't be the preggo one. lol

someone

find out what Worf is doing.

Also from Gordo

Marmol (knee) had good bullpen session. Says he’s 100 percent. To be available Tuesday.

Yeabut...

…can he play middle infield?

he can catch

laidbackliam - April 27, 2009 reply

For those who care

Ben Gordon is day to day on his hamstring. Gosh, we better protect Kane, Havlat, and Toews.

Huh?

Who dat?

All I'm going to say is

Gosh, I hope you’re kidding.

Never mind

I just realized it was basketball and hockey. Not a fan.

perhaps if we combined the two sports?

Hocketball? Baskey?

I imagine guys on an ice rink skating around trying to shoot a hard black rubber ball into nets 10 feet above them, and only the “Goal Tenders” have sticks.

You're onto something big!

The National Hocketball League. Est. 2009. The Chicago BlackBulls will open the season against the New York IslandKnicks.

Sportsball

You go nine quarters, each one with an alternating base/basket/football/puck
defense has sticks
offense has bats
the goalie wears skates.

laidbackliam - April 27, 2009 reply

No kidding, we should lock up Cutler and throw away the key this week. The injury bug is in town....

JB 23 - April 27, 2009 reply

Am I the only one who doesn't think Cutler is going to be that great?

His numbers so far haven’t exactly been phenomenal, and he’ll have nobody to throw to this year.

I was thinking the same thing

They’re pretty similar to Ortons.

I mean I understand being excited by a QB,

but I still think Aaron Rodgers is a great deal better than Cutler. With their potent offense, and a newly buffed up defense, I feel the Packers are the team to beat in the NFC North this year.

someone after my own heart :)

Even if I’m not sure I agree. I hope Aaron has a good year. (ducks as all the Bears fans realize I am a Packer fan)

Vikings fan here.

love what they did in the draft and they will be your NFC North favorite. Take that to the bank!

+1

Go Purple People Eaters!

I am pissed

no one from University of Phoenix Online got drafted.

I mean, come one, WTF

Is this Mark Schlereth?

WOW....

What does a bear on birth control and the World Series have in common? No cubs!

unnamedDBacksfan, on AZSnakepit.

Old, bad joke.

He.....

Oh, I get it.

Because we haven’t won a World Series in over one hundred years. But do bears take birth control? What if it’s a Catholic bear?

that's a big can of Catholic worms

though the bear probably won’t be invited to speak at Notre Dame…

first time that joke was told

a caveman fell off his dinosauer laughing

new material is a nice thingh

Give them a break though...it's their site. It's not like they're posting it over here in our gamethread.

’Preciate the backup over there on the AZ Pit. Well done.

Welcome...now give me your car keys, you're in no position to drive yourself home.

I’m already home…

You're drunker than I thought...

now get out of the women’s bathroom and I’ll apologize to the manager of this Denny’s and we can get out of here.

wow

a total of nine comments on the day? I’m aquiverin’ in my boots.

OT

But since were going up against the marlins this weekend just thought id pass this along. He was just hit in the right wrist with a pitch and it didnt look good. Removed from the game immediately for xrays.

He who?

holy crap, sorry.

i suppose a name would have been helpful, sorry:)

You still haven't

Given a name….

Hanley Ramirez

dtpollitt gave it……

Dan did it right under you, it's Hanley Ramirez.

o

Got it.

Well, I don't root for injuries.

But I won’t be unhappy if Hanley can’t play this weekend.

Yeah, who knows about Nolasco.

But Josh Johnson is the real deal. His stuff is absolutely sick.

He.....

Cards-2 Braves-0

Through 1 and a half.

[Gosh] [darn] it

GIve it up Lou

If Bradley has no time table to return, put him on the DL. Put it retroactive to Saturday so its really less than two weeks. He should be well rested and ready to go then.

Chanman25 - April 27, 2009 reply

Yeah, I agree with this. maybe they're worried about putting him on the DL because of the perception of the injury.

agreed

if they dont have a return date put him on the DL. He is taking up a usable spot.

David Ross RBI double

Plates Kotchman, 2-1 Cards.

It's going to be

difficult tonight posting in here, watching the Cubs and flipping to catch the Blackhawks too.

well if the Cubs don't do well............

you might not want to be here anyways :(

but they will do well, so plan on sticking around!

Hope so,

but a lineup with Johnson batting cleanup isn’t extremely inspiring

well the dbacks for whatever reason dont score runs for haren. 3 in 4 starts(knock on wood)

so hopefully a ton of offense wont be needed tonight.

true

I was away for a week, has it still been extremely negative once the team gets down?

Oh shut up!

make me!

Yes indeed it does.

I think we had 3 posts about how much certain players suck...

…AFTER WE WON.

yikes

Lou's rookie year...

Ladies? Thoughts?

carmen_fanzone - April 27, 2009 reply

He didn't

quite have that egg shape back then.

Marv Staehle wears funny hats.

And of course, Lou never played for the Pilots. He was taken by them in the expansion draft, but was traded to KC just before Opening Day, where he won the Rookie of the Year award.

Just think. If the Seattle Pilots hadn’t traded him, Lou might have played his career out as a Milwaukee Brewer.

Marc Steaele

Is actually related to my friend.

what the hell

every happened to Marv Staehle?

Oh, traded to the Expose. Harsh.

I would rather NOT have any thoughts

Looks like a reject from a defective batch of G.I Joe dolls

Doggie Stalker - April 27, 2009 reply

Xrays negative on Hanley's wrist.

guess were gonna see him this weekend

not necessarily, he'll probably be day to day, like half of our lineup

Pardon my ignorance

But why is Gathright called “rejo” by B.Miles in the lineup?

Reddevil - April 27, 2009 reply

I think "rejo" is Reed Johnson

I knew I was gonna feel dumb

But I’d rather feel dumb than have Gathright starting. Thx.

Reddevil - April 27, 2009 reply

no offense, but so would we:)

Also, it wasn't B. Miles, it was Gordo tweeting....

I guess I'm living proof

that accuracy is overrated. (thx again)

Reddevil - April 27, 2009 reply

twss

finally one that fits!

TWSS

i put that one on a tee, only a matter of time.

Nice play there.

huh? That means Reed Johnson. Gathright isn't going to start.

good grief, dont scare me like that.

Are you implying that Gathright isn't up to snuff?

he's close, but no.

I think he'd be great if he could hit in the majors.

so would you!

I'd rather be Jim Hendry

close?

to what? The gatorade dispenser?

Lineups out yet?

kanderber - April 27, 2009 reply

see above....

sadly yes, reed johnson as our cleanup hitter is all you need to know:)

ugh

Anyone recall Augie Ojeda going off on us last year?

I know he will be starting at SS so im hoping he doesnt repeat.

He annoys me because of how well he hits us. And because he was once a Cub.

Cubbinstrongsince86 - April 27, 2009 reply

Early

it listed Lilly vs Petit on Cubs.com, did they switch it back ?

Cubs.com lists Lilly vs. Haren.

So does Yahoo.

as does mlb.com

i also saw lilly and petit early on yesterday but I think it was changed later in the day.

Cubbinstrongsince86 - April 27, 2009 reply

weird

same thing was listed on the diamondbacks website too

Gameday has Haren, too, FWIW

This is one of my least favorite series of the season

After the two Marlins debacles I think going to Chase Field is the worst.

Ted Lilly meeting the only place and person that has ever stopped him. That will be fun to watch.

Lets try it again

HAREN

LETS LIGHT THIS MOTHERF***ER UP

Yeah!

How’s the new condo?

Condo is good

Even better that I got 285 on HD to watch the game.

Ill revert back after a loss (5 games from now :))

Hammer, er... drops in.

Jimmyeatworld - April 27, 2009 reply

Let's do it.

What is that?

Jimmyeatworld - April 27, 2009 reply

And pass it around!

Twittermeyer says Bradley to be back tomorrow

cubsnlinux - April 27, 2009 reply

Yep

Lou says bradley available tonight for double switch. Could return to lineup tues.

Good news

also, Rami on tues

hopefully. Lee could be another day.

It seems that everything might be just about done

Hopefully this string of injuries means we get a break for a while

Also

Ramirez also a good bet for tues. Lee could be another day after that.

if Hoff is hitting the ball well

do we bench him for Lee tho? Dont we need to play the hot hand a little

I guarantee 100% that Lou will start Lee over Hoff, when Lee is healthy

he stated that he’s going for defense over offense from now on. Hoff is still a butcher

BoVandy - April 27, 2009 reply

in RF yes, not so much at 1B

Lee is gold glove caliber, Hoff is not

Hoff will return to the bench when Lee is 100%

BoVandy - April 27, 2009 reply

Lee is great on D

…..unfortunately I would take 4 other first baseman in the NL Central alone over him. 3 definetely and 4 most likely.

not with neck spasms

never 100% with neck injury

so he will be close sure, but never again the same, trust me

Are you related to Micah or did DLee do something personally to both you and clutche?

neither

just want to see some victories, and if Micah is hitting and able to play 1B why rush back an injured Dlee who is not hitting?

but you were on that bandwagon back in ST

and the offense seems to backing it up, right?

I am not anti Lee, but i am anti Losing. Dlee has not been hitting the ball, and has a bad neck, why not let him rest a bit?

If it was anyone else filling in besides Micah would you be that excited?

I guess I don’t want double clutching Theriot throwing to someone who isn’t 6 ft 6 who can make some great plays @ first. Last time I checked Micah’s detractors disliked his defense not his offense.

It’s ok to have a man crush on Micah. :)

im see nothing wrong with giving him some time

he is a 1B, not horrid at 1B and is hitting the ball. What is wrong with that?

fwiw

my complaints about Hoff on D are related to him playing outfield. He’s apparently a competent first baseman. No, he’s not as good as Lee, but he can stand in when Lee’s not healthy.

However, if Lou and Lee say that Lee is ready to come back on Wednesday, I want Lee back on Wednesday.

This presents my hidden Lou theory of the season

HYPOTHETICAL AGAIN
Hoff gets hot, lets say he dominates today. Lee is ready to play, but Hoff is hot. Next thing you know we have a platoon going.

and that he is available for a double switch

and now he says that Aram might also return 2morrow

cubsnlinux - April 27, 2009 reply

More Twittermeyer

Ramirez also a good bet for tues. Lee could be another day after that.

So

the DVR is set because Ill be asleep by 1015

Sucks but I figure getting in early and leaving late is smart these days.

Prediction – Nov 3 – the Cubs win the WS and the DOW makes a record leap.

I hate

Cubs and Hawks both late starts

Its different for everyone...

…but if sporting events took place at 6pm for me everyday Id be a happ(ier) man.

I'd alternate between that and 1:20 games and I'd be a happy girl

Ok 24 time

I might be back for the Cubs. Hopefully Ted gives me a birthday win!

Happy birthday!

Happy Bday

Chase Daniel signs a contract

znohitter - April 27, 2009 reply

Whats up party people

throw your hands in the air!

rough weekend

Glad i was spending my time going to see DMB on Friday and Saturday

cue DBM argument

in five, four, three, two…

>points

I hate DMB fans that think...

DMB is the greatest most revolutionary thing to ever happen to music.
I once had someone argue to me that the drummer for DMB was better than Neil Peart. I couldnt stop laughing for 5 minutes.

DMB and Rush are 1 and 2 on my list respectively

I’ve seen DMB 30 times now and Rush 7 times. I study this music. Peart is no question the takes the cake when it comes to technical precision and complexity of rhythms. Carter is a blast to listen to, improvises out of no where and performs his music like no one else.

Glad to see...

there are knowledgeable DMB fans. I have never had a love for their music but I see nothing wrong with them.
Saw Rush for the first time when they came through Chicago for their snakes and arrows tour, and man can they still rock for their age.

Typecasting DMB fans or saying “glad to see there are knowledgeable DMB fans” is akin to saying all of Wrigley Field and Cubs fans are drunken preppy assholes. Grow the fuck up.

i dont see how that was necessary but to each his own

kodypuckett23 - April 27, 2009 reply

In the last 10 minutes

I’ve heard “I hate DMB fans…” and “Glad to see there are knowledgeable DMB fans.”

I said...

I hate DMB fans that think

DMB is the greatest most revolutionary thing to ever happen to music.

I'm a DMB fan, and I took it personally, because you're making a wholly ignorant and silly blanket statement.

To each his own, but I’m hard-pressed to find another band that started in the late 80s/early 90s that’s still making platinum records, winning Grammys, selling out every single show they put on (and is always on the top 10 list of biggest tours), wasn’t created by a TV show or MTV, writes and performs its own music, and sticks to its roots. I’m pretty short-minded, because obviously I grew up with this music, but someone like Pearl Jam comes to mind in staying-power like DMB, but not many other bands. And in an age of shit music, I appreciate the bravado a full 7 piece band brings to a live concert. They don’t make ’em like they used to.

I fully agree with that statement.

And yeah I probably could have worded it a little nicer. Seeing you guys so passionate about DMB is making me go listen and see for myself.
As for the age of shit music…man you couldnt be more right. I wish I was born about 20-30 years ago just for the music.

Well then, I’m sorry I told you off.

My dad and I have an on-going argument about who makes the best music ~~-England or the USA. I am continually arguing guys like Segar, Springsteen, DMB, Pearl Jam, Cash, etc.~~-against him and his Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon bicep tattoo. I think I’ll eternally lose this argument.

I have no idea why that's crossed out.

a dash

on either side of a word means “strike” in SBN-code.

~~like this~~

Drew with the a-sist

I have to go England

Zeppelin is probably my favorite band.

How about Depeche Mode?

But that’s just my tastes in music

chitownhawkeye - April 27, 2009 reply

I'm not a huge DMB fan but I like some of the music

I will agree with you though. Whenever I get into arguments with people about what eras of music is better, one question I always ask regarding current music is “Name a recent band that will likely be around and that people will want to see when the band is in their 50’s/60’s”.

DMB is one of the few and they have been around for 15 years.

rlpete - April 28, 2009 reply

The only ones I have met though

So thats how Im gonna end up opinion towards them.

not all DMB fans are stupid college drunks

There is something real in that music, I wish i could just get everyone to see it. Don’t waste your time on the studio things. Too influenced by radio friendly minded producers. If there is one thing i can do to change your mind, get Live Trax 15 thats about to be released through the DMB site: www.dmband.com. Form your opinions from this.

Snakes and Arrows tour was fantastic. Despite looking like he was going to keel over dead on his drums, neil rocked the house and geddy still brings it

Thanks for the info

Been looking for some new music, I will defiantly have to check it out and hopefully like what i hear.

If there is one thing i can ever give someone

it would be DMB’s music. Sure there are idiots who embarrass every fan base, but as I’m sure you know, the majority of any fanbase is knowledgeable and passionate about their, well, passion

Yeah everyone has them

I like finding the good fans, which is why Im glad I found BCB lots of great Cub’s fans here :)

I could not agree more

Sometimes when i see stupid cubs fans i get angry

Don’t represent my team like that you fucktard!

I'd start with

Red Rocks or Before These Crowded Streets if you want the best of DMB. That, and the new album. It’s gonna be unreal with the death of LeRoi as its emotional core.

I don't think so

Granted RR and BTCS are classics, its almost cliche to recommend. In today’s ‘market’, I’m giving people the newest versions of songs from the 08 and now the 09 tours. This would be Live Trax. 13-15, and Live at Mile High which is in stores

and i recommend everyone get Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King

Live at Mile High is amazing

Agreed

But if I could stress it enough, I would point people into the direction of the Live Trax Series

I don't buy the Live Trax.

DMB allows you to record all their shows free, legally, and to download and share them online as much as you wish as long as you do not profit off them. I download all the shows I want online and don’t have to pay a cent for Live Trax. Red Rocks is the best live CD, bar none. And I still think BTCS is the best studio album.

I've been downloading shows for years and mailing tapers my blank cds before that

But nothing compares to a soundboard recording. Plus, if you know where to look, you don’t have to pay a cent for live trax either :-P

no arguments tonight

Thatta boy! In Charlotte?

I’ll be going to my 23 & 24th DMB concerts this summer, and will probably end up going two the one here in KC and the last one of the tour in OK, too. The new album is gonna be sick, I’ve been downloading all the tour shows lately. I love “Why I Am”.

Ill be attending my first next Wed, cannot wait.

Enjoy!

You will not be disappointed

I was in Vandy. 6 rows from the stage :)

This was show number 30 and it was unreal. Love where the band is growing to. Why I Am is awesome live. AWESOME! FTWIS and Spaceman are also going to be very good. The band is playing out of their minds. Best i’ve seen them

My claim to fame:

I was @ the Iowa State show the night before Live @ Luther College was recorded. It was amazing.

was at Alpine 04 which is live trax 8, busch stadium which is live trax 13 and alpine 08 which is going to be released as live trax 15

All that…..but no dave and time show for me…. :( props man

I’ve been to Alpine every year for the last 7 or 9 years, I can’t even remember at this point. I took my brother when we were in high school and we have been going ever since. We made the drive from Minnesota every year, then when I went to UW it was a bit easier. We camp at the same exact two camp sites every year – Kettle Moraine – and last year had a big assed RV with a real neat DMB flag and flag pole that I home made. I truly believe Alpine is his favorite place to play.

Alpine!!!

You and I are in agreement there. My first DMB show was 9.1.02 at Alpine and I’ve been every year since. Now we do a lake house on lake geneva with about 20 people…most of whom are my clones who are avid followers after i shoved it down their throats.

I agree. Alpine is the ultimate

saw Jimmy Buffett there

summer of 07. Fun times!

My dad tells me of times

when he saw rush, boston, kansas there for like $4.50

i couldnt imagine

Well, it's where Stevie Ray Vaughn was killed.

His chopper crashed a few miles after taking off from Alpine.

you are correct

Id just like everyone to know

that I love Sue

Aw, you

make me blush. :D

The best!

Im out all - GO CUBS

Nice, it wasnt on the guide yesterday afternoon and i never checked back, thanks!

I went to snakepit, not good.

There is a video of Lilly throwing the glove. It was the first time I went to the other teams site, I do like seeing the other teams perspective on the match up. Al maybe you should start including that in your pre-game thread if it isn’t too much of a pain.

At snakepit they only had 12 comments, how weak.

Yep

You’re probably right. However, in the interests of North-South diplomacy, and my respect for Al, best if we do not open that can of worms again…

Oh, and the Lilly video will forever remain his defining moment to Arizona fans – even if [as I pointed out in the preview], he has largely owned us outside of that game. Sometimes life is strange like that.

Jim McLennan - April 27, 2009 reply

I had to say something to combat watching that video.

As I said, I liked your gameday thread and will probably check it out for the rest of this series. I had to do a double take with Haren’s ERA when I saw his record.
