Big Z going today...huh???

Lets see if he can make it through 5 innings without punching a teamate, going off on an umpire, Destroying the gatorade cooler, walking 10 batters, and playing with his crotch 1,343,935 times between every pitch.....

Sorry about that last one....But its the truth...Big Z cant seem to keep his hands off little Z......hehehehe

Ha. He is always tugging on his junk.

What is it with the Pirates?? The Cubs just can't beat them

SPEEDY MCCREADY

I see Big Z left the game with another one of his menstrual cramps......

Some things never change....

I don't know about that... they had yesterday's game wrapped up until Marmol went for the close and couldn't throw a pitch within 10 feet of the plate.

But yeah... yesterday was probably the only chance they had at being >.500 this year.

Joe Saunders looks like a HOF'er today.


edit...damn

Over .500 for the first time since the end of 2009. Time to throw a parade, cause this might be as good as it gets this year.

Off to the games at "Wrigley North" tonight and tomorrow. Glad I'm not going Sunday. Not interested in watching AAA callup Casey Coleman go against Gallardo. I think Wells and Cashner need to man up and pitch. You are "sore" you just pitched and don't have to again for at least 5 days, tape it up!

hmmm, good time for Weeks to feast

Carlos Pena sucks. Another bad Hendry signing.

WOW! Doubt anyone is watching the game tonight but they just advertised the Cubs are offering a $40 for 4 tickets, 4 dogs and 4 soda deal for ALL April and May games. Unbelievable. I do love it though and I still won't go. It's nice that the fans have said a big "fuck you" to the Ricketts family and their highest priced tickets for a far below average MLB team. First beer now being sold through the 8th inning and now this, they have to be selling next to no tickets. I couldn't be happier that the Ricketts are getting screwed. They think they can drop $900 mil on a team and get the investment back overnight. It doesn't work that way. They should invest more time analyzing players then their ticket buying patterns which they "thouroughly" analized with their insane tiered pricing bull shit.

Not a cubs fan (sox fan as I'm sure you may know) but I'm happy to see this post. I have many close friends who are diehard cubs fans and have this same mentality. The Tommy Ricketts is a member of my parish, and you would not believe the pub he gets. I swear, they said a Sunday Mass in his honor, haha. They commend him for his generosity, when all he does is sell tix for face value to the parish...It's bullshit. Even though my heart and attention are for the SouthSide, I still want the cubs to be competitive. Makes it a fun/interesting summer. So I must say, I am happy to see Cubs fans finally making a statement (at least I hope that's what's going on).

we have company tickets and they occassinaly get raffled off. haven't seen the winning names list email post raffle. either they stopped the email, or nobody entered. i'll have to ask monday

big z looked good against a hot padres lineup...maybe he'll have a few more before the trade deadline so the cubs can unload him.

made zero sense to go out and sign a 10M a year player for one season. it's not like the cubs were competitors and this guy would push them over the top. maybe he keeps them out of the basement, but is that really worth 10M

Hell no it isn't. For a lot less and what I believe would be better production I'd rather see Colvin at 1B everyday.
