August 17, 200818 yr All of the above. Another great performance by our starter, but the offense gives no run support and the relievers blow it. Oh well. We should be used to it by now, I guess
August 17, 200818 yr Well, this team was never in contention because of how awesome they were playing. It was mostly due to the scuffling of the other NL East teams.
August 17, 200818 yr I got home just in time to see pinto blow the game open for the cubbies. You know i thinkits the dolphins fault. Since they have played their damn game weve sucked. Their suckieness rubbed off on us. Also i remeber weh we couldent pitch for crap and won now we pitch but cant hit and lose. Thus my reasoning that hitting wins games not pitching.
August 17, 200818 yr Author If our bullpen was perfect, then we would have swept the series. EDIT: If Gregg and Pinto were Perfect, then we would have swept the series
August 17, 200818 yr seriously... pinto.... should never have pitched.... Edmonds didn't hit, Pinto shouldn't pitch... Kensing should have been in there, Arthur Rhodes is a Lefty out of the pen... if you need a lefty out of the pen, go to him, but dont let pinto get rocked for 6 runs.... ... or w/e it was.... all I know, it was freaking hot there today stadium was like an oven.
August 17, 200818 yr What sucked even harder was having to watch the f'in Cubs feed to see the game live, with their jackass commentators encouraging the fans to sing that damn song and taking cheap pops at the Fish all game long.
August 17, 200818 yr Author Y logan he let like 2 hits 1 ER 5 of thoose runs are on pinto 2 on volstad
August 18, 200818 yr Kensing. Yeah, what a jerk, giving up those extra 3 runs. We almost had them. It was more of a joke than anything. To me, blaming him is the same as blaming Uggla.

This was a team meltdown today, they lost this game as a team. I don't really blame anyone, its just one of those you shake your head at... If Pinto doesn't give up those runs, if Volstad comes out before the 7th, if Jake or Uggla don't strike out 4 times each... meh, we lost, 9-2, it really wasn't close.
