Dunn would be better off trying to hit right handed holding the bat upside down.

 

Adam Dunn is so bad it is beyond belief.

I think he's the worst player I've ever seen, truthfully.

Well, we better never acquire a "big-name" left-handed hitter again.

 

First, Swisher...now Dunn. How is it even possible both guys could veer so far off their career norms when they came to such a hitter's park?

 

It's the curse of Joe Borchard.

 

(Yeah, yeah....Thome was good).

Fair, plate is in fair territory.

Then ump was, indeed, correct. And Oswaldo was, indeed, wrong.

Maybe Dunn has a drug problem now?

One positive (if there are any), our middle relief is looking better and better.

Why dont you bring up Pierre or Rios?!?!?!?

Rios, Teahen, Pierre........

 

Six more outs to score three runs, it seems.

Mostly I think it's that the Cubs have an awful offense.

 

Alex Rios didn't even move his feet on that f***ing swing. He has cashed it the f*** in.

That is the thing they do well with no pressure down 3 runs so they do ok.

If you cant hit that last meatball from Zambrano you don't deserve to play.

 

That has to be the 10th hanger he has thrown down the middle.

I think this is one of those seasons we'll just go back and forth between .500 and ten games under...can just never over the hump.

 

Not as bad as 2007, but more frustrating...because we're in it "just enough" to keep from doing anything to change our roster or TRY any younger players on an extended basis.

The trademark of a Chicago baseball team.

 

Getting destroyed by these clowns over a 3 game series will do wonders for attendance for the rest of the month. Sure the National's series will draw well.

We should have at least 4 HR's tonight.

No way we stand pat at the deadline if we're close to .500

"Look at the play by Pena..."

 

IT WAS HIT RIGHT TO HIM! He had to move a foot to his right.

Kenny will burn the farm down for a 10% chance to win the division. He has no long term vision.

LOL at this s***ty team. White Sox are a joke.

 

And Steve, Rios does suck as does Juan.

Hmmm, football no guarantee, so I guess ill look forward to hockey preseason in September.

Another classic case of scoring runs in 1 inning and laying down like a b**** the rest of the night and hoping it would hold up.

If his job is on the line, isn't that the logical move for him?

I think Hawk was counting on Pena being in shock that a ball was hit sharply by Pierre to him, instead of a weak grounder to 2b or short.

Basically, you described Baseball Hell. Looks like 2012 will be another one of those seasons where we're hoping players play up to the expectations because we're sure as hell not doing a lot of trading and FA signings.
