I’ve never heard a announcing team whine more about umps and “should have been a hit”’s. They talked about how Corey Hart should be 4 for 4 for like half an inning. I try not to pay attention or I go nuts.
should be trying to figure out what the hell is going on with Sean Marshall and what Lou is doing. Why not bring Marshall in for the 4th inning and seeing how long they could ride him rather than waste 4-5 relievers. The guys is basically never used anymore and he could have kept us in this game.
Marshall hasn’t pitched in 10 days. He should be more than fresh. I realize this wildcard run is a long shot but if they come up a game or two short Pinella should be thinking about why he went with sept. call up roulette tonight.
Huge comeback and win this stupid game thread?
BleedsbluinMI - September 16, 2009
Works for me.
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
Good idea, I'll be keeping my fingers crossed from here
Eamus Catuli from northern Thailand.
Btw. How many games out are we?

This means something...

"C'mon asshole!"
Said my wife when this old man stalled.

I like her already

Soooo, come here often?

I thought last night was bad. This is much worse.

LAcarl519 - September 16, 2009
That's great. Rec'd
chilango2 - September 16, 2009
Much better than my attempt
Of course, I took off that ugly hat…
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
lol thanks for the idea.
also, i didnt think of doing that. i’ll try that right now

Are you kidding me Lou?
Why the F is this guy batting?
This senile old &$%# really makes me want to break things sometimes.
kanderber - September 16, 2009
If Aaron Miles can hit these pitchers
Anyone can
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
Um who else is available ?
Doggie Stalker - September 16, 2009
Blanco?
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
Baker was
KaliCub - September 16, 2009
the only available hitters on the bench other than taguchi is andy white and muffin man
jesus christos - September 16, 2009
Even the Brewers announcers...
are questioning the move to let Taguchi bat there. Ugh. F you, Lou
kanderber - September 16, 2009
Baker and Hill are the only two guys I can think of
available and I think you have to hold them back. Maybe Sam can come in and just hope to draw a walk without swinging ?
Doggie Stalker - September 16, 2009
he was wearing a brace on his wrist
i dont think he can play
jesus christos - September 16, 2009
I was kidding
That was what I meant by not swinging. Not sarcastic enough though.
Doggie Stalker - September 16, 2009
You shoulda used the sarcasm font
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
Drive-by comment:
(Haven’t been able to join many game threads in the last week or two… but I’ll try to come back soon – even in losses it’s entertaining.)
Anyone else pretty sure that we’ve seen the last of David Patton’s major league appearances?

Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
What does he look like these days ?
Doggie Stalker - September 16, 2009
Well rested.
KaliCub - September 16, 2009
Like a stud
5-4-3 DP to end the inning.
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
shot!!!!
Foxy!
BleedsbluinMI - September 16, 2009
Jake Fox!
Nice assist!
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
back to the dog house. arf!
LAcarl519 - September 16, 2009
why?
louslovechild - September 16, 2009
ask Lou
sue369 - September 16, 2009
Hitting on Lou's wife
Or insulting Bob Howry…
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
Hey, that's MY line!
Zeke - September 17, 2009
you'll see. he is unlikely to start again for another 10 days
LAcarl519 - September 16, 2009
Swings too hard! Uncoachable.
Jerry Mumphrey - September 16, 2009
just some more of that TERRIBLE defense
cwpettis - September 16, 2009
yes, he's slightly above horrible
BleedsbluinMI - September 16, 2009
A notch above horrible, says the anonymous scout.
Jerry Mumphrey - September 16, 2009
horrific
sue369 - September 16, 2009
Haha
got the in the vicinity call at 2nd…. DP!! Bad call I think but I’ll take it
LT - September 16, 2009
wwe were owed a few
LAcarl519 - September 16, 2009
yes, that call is kind of like traveling in the NBA..they allow a few liberties

Come on Cubbies!!!
sue369 - September 16, 2009
Brewers announcers are still whining.
sue369 - September 16, 2009
About Andy White being in the area?
They can suck it.
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
yep and Dlee at first too
sue369 - September 16, 2009
I told you to plug your ears!
LT - September 16, 2009
I'm just laughing at them.
sue369 - September 16, 2009
what do you expect from a guy
that has one of those ugly hitler mustaches lol
LT - September 16, 2009
I wanna see that. Link?
chilango2 - September 16, 2009
It was a commercial they showed on
FSN Wisc during the last break
LT - September 16, 2009
I found
this, but none of them look like Hitler.
chilango2 - September 16, 2009
It was Bill Schroder
maybe he has more gray on the ends of it now. It was a moving video not a picture.
LT - September 16, 2009
They do that a lot
I’ve never heard a announcing team whine more about umps and “should have been a hit”’s. They talked about how Corey Hart should be 4 for 4 for like half an inning. I try not to pay attention or I go nuts.
gizmo6d9 - September 16, 2009
they can replay it another 20 times and it won't change the call.
they are so low budget, they only have one angle at 2B—it is like watching WGN 20 years ago.
LAcarl519 - September 16, 2009
Which was AWESOME!
Then…
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
Andy White single to LF
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
Bye, Mitch!
Vargas in to pitch
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
This team...
is such a tease.
Kansas25 - September 16, 2009
more like Chinese water torture.
Doggie Stalker - September 16, 2009
And there it is.
Kansas25 - September 16, 2009
what?
sue369 - September 16, 2009
The tease.
Back to back singles…double play.
Kansas25 - September 16, 2009
ah, I see
sue369 - September 16, 2009
Wow.
nice play
gizmo6d9 - September 16, 2009
middle infielders with range...interesting.
LAcarl519 - September 16, 2009
its a new concept i know
Rhymenocerous - September 16, 2009
Is that allowed?
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
No
Only scrappy, short white guys are allowed to fill those positions
gizmo6d9 - September 16, 2009
from LSU
jesus christos - September 16, 2009
I'm willing to bet
Jim may start looking at Notre Dame for his next middle infield. They always give us great players
gizmo6d9 - September 16, 2009
So cheap, too!
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
nah...stick with LSU for MIF
and notre dame for pitchers
jesus christos - September 16, 2009
That's what I thought!
We should be playing this game under protest!
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
DPeriot
jesus christos - September 16, 2009
Puke.
Canadian Cubs Fan - September 16, 2009
atleast he hits a lot more HRs
jesus christos - September 16, 2009
I'm sure dome will come through
TJ11 - September 16, 2009
He would have
Except that stupid Corey Hart was playing his position…
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
But if Corey Hart wasn't there
it would have been a hit. At least that’s the Brewer’s announcing team’s theory as I understand it
gizmo6d9 - September 16, 2009
Stupid other team playing their positions! We do that and they still get on base, right Theriot and Soriano?
TJ11 - September 16, 2009
Oops I was wrong, instead another 0-4 in front of Lee.
TJ11 - September 16, 2009
Andy White!
What a snag!
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
How's that for range?
Brewer’s announcer “I’m not sure Fontenot makes that play”
Yeah, but he’s Theriot’s BFF so he plays and that’s that!
gizmo6d9 - September 16, 2009
And that's why I think Blanco can start next year
chilango2 - September 16, 2009
But if Lou is managing.....
sue369 - September 16, 2009
next year will suck
TJ11 - September 16, 2009
Sandberg in 2010!

…for Sandberg, to do that to him.

Kendal 6-3 DC
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
This is weird
I’m getting your comments about 32 pitches before I see it on MLB TV.
I know there’s a delay but…
shifafaontheside - September 16, 2009
Watching the hi-def feed?
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
If it is, the hi def leaves a lot to be desired
shifafaontheside - September 16, 2009
The hi-def feed is very delayed
The lo-def stuff is a lot closer to real-time.
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
Our big guns coming up.
Make it happen boys!
sue369 - September 16, 2009
i think part of Al's post-mortem
should be trying to figure out what the hell is going on with Sean Marshall and what Lou is doing. Why not bring Marshall in for the 4th inning and seeing how long they could ride him rather than waste 4-5 relievers. The guys is basically never used anymore and he could have kept us in this game.
BeltwayCubsFan - September 16, 2009
Gorzo could have, too
But we just had to see the rookies throw BP
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
at least gorzo pitches
Marshall hasn’t pitched in 10 days. He should be more than fresh. I realize this wildcard run is a long shot but if they come up a game or two short Pinella should be thinking about why he went with sept. call up roulette tonight.
BeltwayCubsFan - September 16, 2009
I wish the media had
the balls to ask Lou many questions. I’d love to hear the answers.
sue369 - September 16, 2009
look, what do you want him to say
jesus christos - September 16, 2009
i want him to say why he misuses and underuses Marshall so much
I just think he completely mismanages Marshall. The guy is valuable.
BeltwayCubsFan - September 16, 2009
We gotta start swinging the bats better.
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
we need a speedy leadoff hitter...
jesus christos - September 16, 2009
What's the deal with Fox? Would be a good one...
TJ11 - September 16, 2009
He swings a good bat
We gotta see about getting him in the lineup
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
The world except for Lou knows this
TJ11 - September 16, 2009
Don't hold your breath.
As long as the Cubs keep feeding them and giving them the “inside scoop” on certain things it won’t happen.
chilango2 - September 16, 2009
The media...
…would first have to understand the game of baseball to do that.
I wouldn’t mind hearing Hendry faced with some tough questions either, but I know he would give his typical talk in circles response.
MPH73 - September 16, 2009
I think of the bad games lately
And bad defense seems to be at the heart of it.
shifafaontheside - September 16, 2009
Can't argue with that.
KaliCub - September 16, 2009
Hola Señor Latte
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009

He does seem to cry a lot
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
an interesting fellow
not really, more of a pain in the tuckes
BleedsbluinMI - September 16, 2009
the cubs were destined to lose this game
jesus christos - September 16, 2009
yes, and he would have predicted it once it was over
BleedsbluinMI - September 16, 2009
Game over
Prince Fielder is still fat.
Clutch16 - September 16, 2009
bah
sue369 - September 16, 2009
humbug...
Zeke - September 17, 2009
and its over, nice game Lou.
KaliCub - September 16, 2009
Damn it Soto! I wanted to see Fox hit again before he has to shut it down for another week!
