fathom Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 I've never seen Saito this wild. He's one of the better control pitchers in baseball, and he's been way off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 When do we play the Dodgers? We could probably shut them out the whole series. Down the middle, not much on it, swing and a miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daa84 Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 (edited) cubs now get 7 in a row against teams a combined 26 under .500  then we will find out how good they are when they go to LA, then play atlanta (who i think is the best NL team), then face the blue jays pitching, play in tampa, then the sox, orioles, and sox again  sadly that is the most difficult stretch of their schedule...

Â Anybody who writes that is a legitimate fool. Because there are more runs being scored in the NL and more home runs, people think the gap is closing. Well look around, all it is really is the AL pitching is a lot better this year. The gap is as big as ever, and you'll see it as the interleague results shake out the rest of the way, as well as in the World Series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Chappas Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 I do not know what it is but teams seem to forget how to hit when they play the cubs. Teams just have terrible AB after terrible AB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 I won't watch a single inning of a Cubs games this weekend unless the opposition is up by more than a run in the final innings. The Rockies, at this juncture, have to be one of the worst teams in baseball over the past decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Didn't watch it, but by judging from the play-by-play, looks like some more stellar defense against the Cubs and amazing situational hitting for the opposition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
