Baltimore steals a win on Wednesday to bust up the winning streak. Even if they're overachieving preseason predictions, I still don't think they're any damn good.

I'll set the over under on that at 17.5, and probably take the over.

cubs sweep

Since this posting is by a White Sux fan and appropriately sucks, just like his team did this past weekend-I have created another thread for the Cubs/Orioles series that starts on Tuesday. Sux fans, feel free to stay with this thread, while decent folks go to the other thread.

Go Cubs!!!!

It's only a three game winning streak, the Cubs have at least 2 more in a row in them. Hopefully more.

HOME RECORD

73-8 My Friend

Anyone else see that Samardzija got promoted to AAA to take Marshall's spot?

Curious Hair is a Cubs fan, dumb shit.

The O's arent too bad but the Cubs are damn near unstoppable at home and the O's, like most teams, struggle alot away from home. Im not sure it'll be a sweep, but it would surprise me alot if the Cubs didnt win this series and if I had to guess I would probably say itll be a sweep.

Cubs get it to within 7-4, then the rally killer, Mark DeRosa hits into a DP. This guy has been horrible the last few weeks.

Bad call on the Patterson force out. I really hate this neighborhood call shit. It wasn't close. Another rally killer is at plate, in Murton.

It was close.

Shmitty, you only hate the "neighborhood call when it's against you."

You probably like it when the Cubs are on defense.

Go ahead run at the plate. Cubs are great at coming back, especially at home. Lets see what they can do here.

CEDENO!!!

God Ronny is bad. That had to been one of the worst at bats of the season.

Cedeno looked lost

Nope, I hate it. The rule says touch the base, not be in the neighborhood. I know they try to avoid injuries, but its part of the game.

Back to back horrible at bats, up to Blanco.

that was trbl.

now i want to hear mr. reason with the "these guys fucking blow" rant.

Well, that was disappointing.

A blue balls 9th inning. Thanks for nuttin'.

You know me like that.

Those were 3 of the worst at bats I have seen. Ronny and Fukudome were lost, and Blanco let a meatball go on 0-1.

Sorry, I shot my wad on how much sucker's playground blows.
Hey Zach, is your fucking shift key broken?

no i just use it for writings i deem more important. let's face it, have i really said much on here in which that's the case?

Saw that. Cedeno might be trade bait since he has gone back to not knowing what a strike zone is anymore.

elmhurst steve ran onto the field?!?
