Will Gwynn be leading off next inning with a righty on the mound?

no

Man, I really have a strong dislike for Aramis Ramirez. Something about that guy that I cannot stand.

Well how about that walk off he hit against us last summer for starters......

Who is this Fukudome guy?

[SoCalBrewfan]

Not to get ahead of things too much, but who would be surprised if a slow start and some defensive glitches mean that management turns on Soto, as they have with so many young players...put him on the Corey Patterson track?

[Giraldo8]

Nice quick inning Soup

[And That]

Suppan looks like he'll go 7 today. Nice.

[drezdn]

If Soto struggles, I wonder what the Cubs will do. Blanco isn't good enough to start everyday, and (aside from Michael Barrett) a decent catcher would probably cost an arm and a leg in trade.

[azcheesehead]

When is the last time Soup has thrown like this? I keep waiting for the 3 run inning!

[DrWood]

I think suppan gets PH for, if they get that far. Otherwise, looks like he'll go another inning. 96 pitches so far.

[sheetswannabe]

Fukudome doesnt really look as good at defense as they said so far... He misplayed the triple yesterday, had an ugly play there... Im sure hes just rusty..

 

Kapler with a single!

hush, you'll jinx him. His big innings were usually 5th and later.

First Brewers hit!

April, August and September of last year.

 

I think it was June that he absolutely stunk last season but he was decent the rest of the way.

[And That]

The Cubs are obsessed with picking off guys at second.

[And That]

Superb baserunning there.

[trwi7]

Okay guys, let's bust this thing open right now!

[sheetswannabe]

Can we censor the S word now?

[SoCalBrewfan]

I think suppan gets PH for, if they get that far.

 

I hope it happens this inning, because he was due 7th...I'd feel pretty safe with Turnbow and a 7 run lead.

 

Oouch...my eyes.

I remember Hall hitting a GS or 2 last year with Bases Juiced.

I think it started before that, but that fueled it. I think it started when he charged Sheets a long time ago. That and I hate the way he plays the game, he plays it like it's such a hassle to play the field... or run the bases, especially after he hits a long one.

 

[azcheesehead]

Let's go BILLY!

[sheetswannabe]

Hart Attack?

[Bernman23]

Such a bad approach by Hall. He had an excellent pitch to hit early in the bat and he just watches it.
