Cubs at White Sox June 22nd

It’s been a while since I’ve done a game preview thread.  It is time to get back to business.  Today, the Cubs will be taking on the struggling White Sox.  Back in May, the Cub’s took 2 of 3 games to take round one of the season series.  The Cubbies are looking to bounce back [...]

Cubs at Braves June 9th

All I have to say is Soriano is a beast.  His 4 hit, 3 homerun night last night was extremely impressive.  Here is a few more interesting stats.  Soriano is 19-17 (.514) with 6 homeruns so far in June.  He is also the first Cub to hit 3 homeruns in a game since Sammy Sosa back [...]

Ramirez and Guzman hurt, Cubs Draft Vitters

I know this is sort of old news but I’m just getting to it now.  Ramirez had to leave the game on thursday due to in lahmen’s terms a really sore knee.  Apparently, the injury has been bothering him for most of the year.  he tweaked something in his knee trying to run out a ground ball [...]

Marlins at Cubs May 29th

As stated before I apologize for my absence.  Now, back to business.  The cubs have been really snake bitten lately.  They starters have pitched great including earning a quality start in each of the last four games.  The Bullpen is right where i left it… floundering.  The Offense has been struggling a bit as well, [...]

Cubs at Mets May 16th

It’s amazing the difference a day makes.  The Cubs actually looked like a playoff team last night.  We had a strong outing by Zambrano, and lots of timely hitting.  Every single person who had an at-bat last night got a hit except for Alfonso Soriano (he did get a walk).  This includes defensive sub Angel [...]

Cubs at Mets May 14th

Ted Lilly finally got a little bit of run support last night.  Leading the charge was Mr. Matt Murton and Cesar Izturis with 3 hits apiece.  I’ve noticed the last few weeks Murton has been thrown through the mud on the www.cubs.com fan forum.  Most people on the forum do seem to be over-reactive and want to trade [...]

May 13th Cubs vs Phillies

The Cubs showed a lot of heart last night to tie the game late.  Unfortunately the bullpen was not able to prevent the team’s 3rd straight loss.  Matt Murton played a great game as he is benefiting from regular playing time.  Today, The Cubs will be taking on the Phillies for the 3rd and final game of [...]

The Cubs are on quite a roll of late winning 8 of their last 9, which includes their last 5 games.  The Pirates, on the other hand have been struggling.  They come into the series losing 7 of their last 9 games.  You know the Cubs look to take advantage of this opportunity to really [...]
