He was backing up Uribe as Balfour seems to have a Zambrano quality of yelling at hitters.
OC struck out and that sucks but you know what, I liked it and I am actaully starting........oh god I can't beleive I am saying this.......liking him down the stretch.

Andruw, not Andrew.
Damn, all we need is for Soto to overthrow on a stolen base attempt.
Thanks for the late night spelling class but what is his deal.
Think any cub fan wore a Nomar jersey tonight?

I have no idea, are those boos the entire game??
TBS trying to make it sound like the greatest fans to every set foot in a professional stadium would never turn on their team.
When does the garbage come down?
With the off day the cubs are going to have to score against the big guns.
Anyone hear the excuses on MVP 1000 this morning for why Dempster blew last night. He was too amped up.

So did the league just figure Fukodome out, or was he never really that good? He's worse than Nick Swisher. And that's pretty bad.
Thanks to Soxtalk at a Christmas Dinner of friends last year I look really smart when I stated Ramirez was a better pick up than Fukodome.
I said that really, not sure I believed it but it made everyone feel better.

Probably thinking of John Lujan, who we picked up from the Rangers by trading Chris Stewart
yep that's him. Long day I am losing my mind.

Willy Mota and Miguel Socolovich
I am confused again with the guy they got in Rangers deal that was not part of the Danks deal.

Don't we still have a couple decent minor leaguers we grabbed from the Red Sox?
Ya he was decent in the lower levels.

After watching it 1000 times, I still don't know how Mike Lamb missed that 3rd strike against Cotts in Game 1.
You realize it is Mike Lamb you are talking about right?
