Great game by the Jays, nice to see such a solid all around effort. Hill was sick, but Hillenbrand hit the shit out of that homer in the 8th. I don't remember many guys hitting lasers out of Rogers/Skydome like that since Delgado was in his prime.

Yep, Jays win (and just as importantly, win over the Orioles), Yankee's lose... good night.

 

[rc213]

Another day Another loss! Nice to see Brad Penny and the Bullpen show up, too bad the offense is still M.I.A. Fucking Hell!

 

[DodgerBlue]

Good pitcher's duel tonight but as expected, by me anyway, we lose again. The season is quickly spiraling out of control and as soon as we get swept or lose 3 of 4, the season will be lost.

Going back to the Sox series, as I didn't get to post on any of the games, I have never been more a defeated and utterly crushed by a loss than by game 2 and our pens collapse.

wtf aaron hill got called up? damn he's playing well too. I went to high school with that guy.

Oh that's awesome. You can say you went to high school with one of the MLB's biggest stars in a couple years.

Some columnists from the LA area was on EPSN2 Cold Pizza this morning saying something along the lines if the Dodgers lose the next 3 (?) against the Padres, Podesta will replace Tracy (who apparently isn't Podesta's favorite). I know Tracy doesn't get much love here, but come on, he's not the one responsible for all these injuries. I thought he did a terrific job last year getting the Dodgers the NL West title, and the way he's brought the previous volatile Bradley along into a productive hitter (though he's been injuried this year) shows how he can be a good manager. I've been impressed over the years with the way Tracy can squeeze out as much as he does with the teams he's had, so I'd be kind of sad to see him get the axe. But then if he does get replaced maybe the Dodgers will tank completely, and everyone can turn their disgust fully on Podesta (thanks for the great offseason trading, Podesta! For this next offseason, let's trade Isturiz, Kent, and Bradley for some questionable pitching talent ).

This just in for Reds fans: Dave Miley and Don Gullett have been fired.

 

[Mrbob]

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssssssss baaaaaaaaaaaaaaacccccccccckkkkkkk!

Fractured elbow? Minor league stint? Hell no Prior is a true mans man he wants to get back in the game and face the White Sox!!

PS- You're a big wuss

If you had half the grit of Prior you would have been back a month ago!!! Supposedly part of the delay is to help change Wood's mechanics (FINALLY) so he doesn't get injured anymore! Better be true! A healthy Kerry Wood will help propel us to the playoffs.

mrbob and cubsfan, remember we have bets this weekend

I didn't bet the white sox vs cubs series, just division and overall record

 

[Mrbob]

You might as well bet against him for the upcoming cubs/white sox series. It'll be easy money and an easy victory!

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

I didn't bet the white sox vs cubs series, just division and overall record

then you're gonna lose HARD on that bet.

 

[Cubsfan23]

Nope, Twins will wipe the floor with the Sox head to head. I'll at least break even.

 

[Eminem]

that's right. my mistake. it was only mrbob who took on all thtee. at least you saved yourself $10. smart man

 

[Wellington]

Drays out to a 3-0 lead in the 2nd. Good job Johnson.

 

[Wellington]

5-0 Drays still 2nd inning one out. The $16 Mil a year man sure is earning his money.

[Mrbob]

Good grief. We had to face the Yankees at their absolute peak this year. Now they have reverted to shit mode once more.

Cubs got the youngster from the Hawkins trade going tonight! Hope he pans out!

Those Tampa Bay Devil Rays are a good ball club!
They are beating the number one starter in the American League!
Randy Johnson is a God!
Randy Johnson will bring the title to the Yankees!

 

[Mrbob]

Jeeezuuuuus I just noticed the Milwaukee Brewers pitcher going tonight, Victor Santos, has a 2-6 record with a 2.87 era! He is the 2005 version of the 2004 Matt Clement!

Also, I'm not sure if you cubbies heard, but Ozzie is gonna pitch Garland on short rest on Sunday instead of chancing it with McCarthy. I LOVE YOU OZZIE

Now Garland can get his 12th or 13th victory(depending on how he does tonight) against the scrubs. how sweet it is.

:lol Exactly

Nice of the Unit to serve up a solo shot for Kevin Cash, it's not every day a career .173 hitting backup catcher gets footage on Sportscenter, I'm sure the Cash family is happy!

EDIT: sure it's fun to laugh at Randy Johnson, but let's not forget Hideo(us) Nomo is "pitching" for the DRays. A 6 run lead is just barely into Nomo's comfort level, the Rays probably need another 4 runs before the lead is somewhat safe.

I listened to McCarthy on The Score earlier today. The guy has a fragile ego and Ozzie just destroyed it! No matter, Garland is getting crushed again lately. I'd rather face him than McCarthy who gave the Cubs a tough go the first time he pitched!

 

[Mrbob]

Randy Johnson is just doing his job and keeping his team in the game, folks!

 

[Mrbob]

Damn the man. Lee and Burshitz both crushed the baseball back to back to the wall and two long outs! So close to being 2-0 Cubs in the 1st! No scores though damn miller park.

[Mrbob]

Yes MVLEE does it again!

Cubs down 2-0 to start the top of the 7th. Brewers make an error to get HOllandworth on base. Dlee hits 2 run homer to tie the game!

Hell yes the Brewers are imploding in the 7th! :lol Another Brewers error followed by a 2 run shot by Ramirez!!!! 4-2 Cubbies!!

 

[Cubsfan23]

:lol :lol

 

[Eminem]

sox up 5-0. this will be victory number 12 for Big Jon, puts us 26 over, and 6 wins in a row, and if minnesota doesn't come back, we'll be up 9 games in the division.


HOW SWEET IT IS
