7/30/08 Cubs (Dempster) at Brewers (Parra): 7:05 CDT

At this point I'm just hoping for another WP.

[trwi7]

Predictable. This offense is absolutely pathetic.

[B2k1121]

I'm convinced the Brewers can't score unless it's with a HR.

[cheesecup22]

man, it is so pathetic how bad the brewers are with RISP

[LordBeerMeStrength]

Why does Yost refuse to bunt batters over?

[pebadger]

This is what you get when you have a team built around SLG but without the OBP to make it really worthwhile.

[ELCABALLO45]

I would of bunted with Durham, not that it would of changed the outcome.

 

This is depressing

[JohnBriggs12]

0 for 14 with RISP this series.

 

Pathetic.

[pitchleague]

Gotta share the love with pitchleague http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif... he got me pointed towards the extra innings section

... but if you look anything like Suzy Kolber, I rescind the sharing offer

I'm going to agree with my wife and say that I do not, in fact, look anything like Suzy Kolber.

Otherwise, you're welcome.

I really wish Brian and Bill would stop looking at the Cubs' pitchers' stats and saying "WOW, that's really good for pitching half his games in Wrigley Field!" like it's some kind of bandbox. This year it's been a slightly better hitter's park than Miller.

Well, Wrigley Field has no Power Alleys and when the Wind blows out its out of control.

 

It is pretty impressive.

[Dmiles23]

Sveum should have tagged Manny that inning on Durham's fly ball to center. The chances the Cubs throw the ball away are better than the Brewers getting a hit with RISP!! And that's only partly joking!!

[Bruce Ciskie]

Why does Yost refuse to bunt batters over?

 

He doesn't refuse. He just doesn't pick good times or good hitters to bunt.

[crewcrazy]

Manny's throwing waaaay too many pitches early.

 

Edit: What the hell is Piniella whining about now?

They showed a stat on TBS on Sunday while the Cubs were playing. Of the Cubs 53 home games, the wind has only been blowing out for 13 of them, while it was blowing in for something like 22. All the others were cross winds. They mentioned that was much less than normal at this point in the season.

 

[ELCABALLO45]

Seriously tho, When is Lou Due?

[cheesecup22]

anyone else think this series has the same feel that the boston series had?

 

the crew seems almost scared

[1992casey]

I am new to DTV and I must say i hate all this moving of channels crap.

 

This is the most channel moving DirecTV has done since about nine years ago. That time, every channel moved sometime between Sunday night and Monday morning. Most of the time, channel number changes are very few and far between.

[ELCABALLO45]

Well I guess I am wrong DMiles23. When the wind is blowing in its like Petco.

 

DMiles? Whats up with idolizing Darius Miles?

[B2k1121]

I'm going to go with Popout, K, K for this inning.

[crewcrazy]

My guess:

 

Fielder walks.

Hart K's.

Hall K's.

Cameron grounds out.

[ELCABALLO45]

Fielder lead off homer coming up

[hurricanecrush]

I'm going to go with Popout, K, K for this inning.

2-2 so far.

 

[ELCABALLO45]

Or not

[trwi7]

Wow. Hart needs a day or 10 off.
