Carrasco has been key for us. I never would have expected this from him. I like a pleasant suprise.

Nothing could possibly top the 2003 team in terms of underachieving, but if we don't pick it up, this 2009 version will give it a run.

 

2006 was way worse than this year. That team seemingly lost a 6 game WC lead at the ASB in no time, and everyone but Dye seemingly quit the last month of the year.

What's Ozzie doing?

 

Matt Thornton in the 7th? That probably means Linebrink or Dotel might pitch. Ugh...

Do you guys get that, "Honey, i think i'm going to need....................... MORE TIES!!!" Ad, out by you?

The only reason 2006 wasn't heartbreaking is because it came right after 2005. But the second half of that year was painful to watch.

I’m going to drop a bit of a bombshell here, but Dotel is actually kind of a good pitcher.

Not having a back-up infielder that can hit from the left side really hurts. If we face any tough righties the next two weeks, it's going to be awful watching Nix have to face them.

Well considering your starting second baseman hits RHP better than LHP, doesn't really make sense for Nix to be better against RHP.

 

Just a matter of circumstance that Getz is injured and Nix is now starting. I don't think many people thought he'd have a .773 OPS at this point in the season also.

Naw, I bet Ozzie lets Thornton go through the 8th

On that last play, Hawk said, "Alexi sucks it up." I, at the time wondered if he was going t add the "it up."

Aj for Ramon

As I say every time I see Wuertz pitch, don't swing at the 3-2 pitch. It will be a slider out of the zone!

Someone brought it up in chat 2 gays ago, whether this team was more 2003 or 06ish. I'll say 2003 since we've been more frustrating throughout. Let's hope for a different finish.

During Interleague play in 2006, that was just about the best performance you'll ever see by a team. We were awesome!

Stoney can't come back soon enough

looks like I spoke too soon, chw42, looks like you were right

What was that, Wuertz?

Beckham!

Why did the Cubs get rid of this guy again?

Steal!

It looks like some of us are still in the closet.

Because Jim Hendry is full of “good” ideas.

Bacon with another hit!

Stoney can't come back soon enough

Fully agreed. Huff is brutal.
