Anybody else fed up with the Cubs? I know its early but that was seriously the worst road trip I have ever seen. And now, that loss brings the Cubs record in games decided in less than 3-4 runs like 1-10. Something needs to be done or this season might turn into the 2006 season.

Team is dead in the water. Lou is cashing in and somehow Hendry still has a job. What a joke.

Lou is a big problem!

I really think Lou is a big problem and the game has passed him by. For example today. Dempster is gassed and facing Votto the Reds best hitter and you have a tough lefty in the pen ready to go. Lou sticks with Demp and everybody knows the rest of the story. Im not trying to Monday Morning QB but that was a no brainer. Need more heart from the Manager.

Lou's horrendous bullpen management is nothing new.

^^good point

but in some of those times we had better starting pitching and better offense to offset that

This team is pretty frustrating right now but it's still early.

Ramirez and Lee will eventually start hitting and they'll be better. I don't think they'll catch St. Louis. But the Wild Card is always up for grabs. But they'll have to make a move for bullpen help closer to the deadline to be a contender for that. I've seen too many Cubs teams crash and burn from awful bullpens.

By the way, what is this - Joey Votto's 50th career homer against the Cubs? I've had enough of that.

It's a sad state of affairs when an organization trots out $150M worth of garbage onto the field...wish I had an answer b/c Hendry sure as hell is clueless.

**My Dad and I were watching him walk back and were like "SERIOUSLY. SERIOUSLY. SERIOUSLY? :shot:"

I can't stand Lou anymore. He said he's tired of talking about the same crap. Um.. hello... it's only effing MAY and you're team is sucking it up on the field. You need to light the fire under their asses and get shit together! I'm not paying to go watch a losing team asshole. So you're going to have to talk about the same shit over and over again bc you're not doing anything to help the situation. What else do you want them to ask you about? The only good things going for this team are Castro and Colvin. Get with the program Lou. Maybe they need to hire a roider batting coach to get the bats juiced up.

We have one already. Don't kid yourself, those Rangers hitters have been doping
