Jesus. Just gave away a run and a man on third there. Thanks Soriano.
Fucking had it with this guy.

Dempster is getting hit hard.

Defense is clown shoes today.


2 of 3 in a series ain't bad.

expect dumpster to get hit hard..the league has caught up with his gay little glove shake

_________________

Winning 2 of 3 is the way to get yourself to a division title. You dont have to go on crazy hot streaks. Just keep winning series.

And then maybe beat the Pirates more than 5 times this year

_________________

Yeah, beating the Pirates is always a good strategy to have as a manager. Throw the Astros in that category this year as well.

Soriano heard you

I really dont get Soriano. Is he just rich and lazy and doesnt care about being great, or does he give actually give a shit and what we are seeing of him now is him maximizing his talent. I just feel like he could have been so much more than he has become.

_________________

I think that today is soriano in a nutshell. Complete defensive liability with home run power...when no one is on base.

And he struck out with runners in scoring position and an opportunity to tie the game. He is incapable of hitting a decent major league starter and now like a vulture makes his hay preying on those pitchers who probably shouldnt be in the majors. It is too bad that he is on the same team as SHARKzilla cause Soriano would torch that fucker.

I was hoping I would have to apologize for speaking out of turn on soriano. True to form, he sucks up the joint when it mattered.

Did you check the awesomeness he replaced? Grabow needs to hurt himself again.

Got to love a DeWitt error at 2nd. Why the hell are the Cubs carrying 3 mediocre 2bmen again?

Fontenot not available? Plus, bored sentiment suggests Castro is gonna be there soon.

Hank, Soriano doesn't give a shit. He doesn't want to be great. He's getting paid. Maximizing his potential was in the rear view mirror many many years ago. He was supposed to be a 30-30 guy? If that referred to 30 walks and 30 errors a year. There's only 1 person associated with this team that has ever called him out: Bob Brenly. What would Soriano's possible motivation be to get better? He has none. He doesn't care.

What's the Cub fans reaction to Soriano: a shoulder shrug; Oh well, we're stuck with the guy. You chalk him up as another bad Hendry decision. Oh wait, he was forced to sign him to an 8 year deal. I forgot. He is the perfect summation of the Hendry era.

This whole thing is going to blow up in Tom McCaskey's face. And then maybe he'll fire Randy Bush.

Oh no! The Cubs lost today! They are now 3-3, and dangerously close to being mathematically eliminated! Now that Cashner and Wells are on the 15 day DL, the Cubs hopes of winning the World Series took a huge blow! Everyone expected this to be a contending team, so anything less than a sweep has to be labeled a failure!

Soriano is terrible! He commits errors! They should just cut him and pay him to stay home, even though he has 3 HR's in the first 6 games and is actually getting off to a decent start at the plate! It doesnt matter because he failed TODAY so he needs to go! He doesn't try! He is a bad human being! They should just cut everyone and let them go play for other teams because that is such good business!

Tom Ricketts is the worst owner ever in the history of any sports franchise in the universe! It is year two and he hasn't won a World Series yet! It doesn't MATTER that the team he bought is loaded with bad contracts! It doesn't matter that this year is clearly a transition year! It doesn't matter that the guys with the big contracts have under-performed, thereby making themselves untradeable, and forcing the Cubs to wait out the contracts! Ricketts should have just walked in and fired EVERYBODY instead of showing any sign of patience! Act now! Think later! He doesn't care enough about the great Cub tradition of losing! We want more '69 Cubs so everyone can remember how great being a Cubs fan is!

We are doomed! Why don't they listen to the internet message board guys who have it all figured out? All this is SOO EASY!


AAARRRGGGHHH!!!!

PANIC! PANIC!! PANIC!!!

Panic, talk to me in September.

All Ricketts had to do was fire Hendry. It would have shown he had at least a tiny sense of baseball smarts. He's in over his head. And there are plenty of Cub fans who think that.

Your over-the-top effort at sarcasm was admirable. Better luck next time.

EDIT: What the fuck am I doing responding to a mult? Jesus, I need to take a break.

Dempster is awful, with another shitty start today. Giving up 10 hits in 6 innings is unexceptable.

Ricketts is no position yet to make decisions on hendry that are performance-related...and he himself will tell u that

Ricketts NEEDS Hendry, because he is still learning the organization, how its run, etc...Hendry could make the worst moves, yet it wont yet faze Ricketts

Ricketts at this point finds Hendry too valuable and it has nothing to do with Bully's performance
