Gotta love the Cubs. Get three HRs -- a season-high -- but all solo jobs. And Marmol blows a three-run lead in ninth and Reds win in 10. Disgusting. -
Mormol out as closer after blowing a three run lead in the ninth. Shockingly, three walks were involved.
His replacement(s) should have a chance to show what they can do in the next 20 minutes or so.Comment

The ump called a pitch in the strike zone a ball, then three pitches later the batter walked after getting nicked in the wrist by the ball. Sveum went out to argue, and looked pretty low-key, but must've said the magic words.Originally posted by falafel View Post"I don't know the origin of said bitch booming."-Art Vandelay

I've been watching "My Boys" on netflix. Just saw the one where they take Andy (played by Jim Gaffigan) to Wrigley field for his birthday. As crappy as the Cubbies are right now, nothing, and I mean nothing compares to a game at Wrigley field.Dio perdona tante cose per un’opera di misericordia

Hey, this team is growing on me. After losing their first five series, they have now won or split their last four (OK, two of them were splits), and are 8-6 in their last 14 games (pity about the 6 game losing streak right before that).Originally posted by pellegrino View Post
I don't expect this team to contend for the playoffs, but they are playing with some heart and don't remind me of the Cubs of the last couple of years. Of course, that could all change quickly with a 10 game losing streak, which they are certainly cpapable of, but as of now, I am leaning toward extending my MLB.TV subscription another month, which seemed unlikely two weeks ago.
I'll be even happier if they get rid of about a third of their steal attempts.Comment
