After getting dominated the way they did yesterday, loook for the Cubs to step it up today.    The Sox better be agressive early and match their intensity.    Need to hit Maddux early, if he goes into the 4th unscathed, we're in trouble.

 

 

I had a feeling, but f*** we were down 4-0 before I even got my ass in my seat.

My prediction for Sunday:

Expect Prior to be lights out, he steps it up when he returns from an injury. We need to be very patient at the plate, as I'm sure he'll be on a pitch count. Make him beat us by throwing strikes, not by swinging at everything. Hopefully we can get to their pen early and hopefully we can knock it around. Garland has to continue to be the Jon of 05, the 'big inning' will kill us.

Frank needs to be back in the lineup tomorrow. He can work a count against Prior which will be key because of the pitch count.

 

Is it me or does our offense seem less effective with Frank on the bench? :huh

Twin continue to slump :cheers

 

At what point do you consider them to be sellers rather than buyers? I mean nothing is going their way. Sanatana even forgot how to win. But I guess they're still right there for the wild card.

When they are no longer in 2nd place in the division. Or, when they drop below .500.

 

Think about the Flubs...they're in 2nd place, sitting @ .500, and most everyone would consider them to be buyers.

I don't know if it was Contreras slooooooooow pace or what, but I fell asleep for a four hour nap after the game. Weird dream. I was working as a waiter at one of the casinos here in Reno (which I did in my younger days), and there were several letters hanging in the kitchen from tourists from Chicago. They all mentioned the "debacle on 35th St." Strange, strange, strange. I woke up thinking about the Sox, and quickly checked on the Minnesota score. Way to go Brewers. Still a 10.5 game lead. All is well.

Worst game I've ever been to.  Surrounded by Cubs fans and having to go through a grand slam in the top of the first?  Everything was ruined.  That was f***ing hell.

 

That sucks. Were there more Cubs fans than Sox fans at the game? If I had to be surrounded by more than a thousand Cubs fans at once, I think I'd lose my mind, I'd just walk away flicking everyone off :finger .. I've actually had dreams like that. :D I wonder if that means anything.

I don't believe that Cubs fans outnumbered the Sox fans, but I was sandwiched between two rows of them. Bad luck I guess.

There were a LOT more Sox fans there, we just never had much to cheer about. That catch over the wall by whoever (Hollands..?) was a big momentum shifter. Maddux escaped that and then really started to cruise.
