IST: Cubs @ Pirates

[CuttyMarsh2012forOffice]

There was no gamethread and I decided to start one.

Good to hear Bryant will be playing

 

[JosMin]

Really hope the Cubs can work some counts and get to Liriano early. Need to get Lester a lead.

 

[JosMin]

Looks like low strikes won't be hard to come by.... especially if Bryant swings on stuff in the dirt like that.

 

[JosMin]

Ross bailed out Lester, Cutch had a nice jump on that pitch despite the small lead.

 

[Ari Bear]

What Ross lacks in offense he makes up in defense.

ESPN talked about how Lester can't throw the whole 1st inning lol

 

[JZsportsfan]

Aramis Ramirez might be the most underrated player of the past ten years

 

[JosMin]

Ross with another defensive gem.

 

[JosMin]

Annnnnnd here comes the tarp. Really hope this is a short one. I was excited to get home from work early enough to watch the entire game.

 

[JZsportsfan]

They said it was supposed to be a really short delay when they were bringing out the tarp

Hopefully Lester can come back out

 

[Ari Bear]

I hate rain delays. This is why games should be played in domes. Or at least have retractable roofs.

Waste of a Lester start

Sucks, this game should have never started

Rafael Soriano signing has not gone well

Rafael Soriano signing has not gone well

Yeah, they might as well of re-signed Alfonso. They're both done.

 

[Ari Bear]

Soler looked lost on that fly.

Yeah I thought Soler was rated really well defensively. Really no excuse for that to happen. Cost the Cubs a run there, not to mention gives the Pirates a 4th out so to speak

 

[Diehardfan]

This is the kind of shit that needs to be cleaned up. Soler acts like Mr. Cocky out there but the reality is that he gets just terrible jumps on fly balls and someone needs to work with him. Given his arm strength, rightfield is the right spot for him but he really needs work.

Im voting for travis wood as the bullpen MVP

 

[Ari Bear]

Ugh, another rain delay.
