  • Bob Howery

    Just a question for Cub fans. Does is make you sick every time Howery comes into the game or is it just me? He has been horrible the last two months and Lou continues to throw him out there. I turn off the TV every time Lou brings him in and how he makes the playoff roster is beyond me. Just curious if i'm in this boat by myself.

    Heck no you arent on the boat by yourself when it comes to Howery. I have cringed every time Lou has brought Howery in to pitch all year!
    IMO, the only way Howery should pitch in the playoffs is if the Cubs are getting blown out and they need an arm to eat up useless innings which I hope doesn't happen.

      That's why he pitched today, to save arms.

        First of all his name is spelled "Howry" and yes he is brutal, i'm not sure why he is even going to be on the roster, I very much doubt Lou will use him at all in the first series unless the score in one particular game is a blow out, hopefully going the cubbies way!

          That's what Jason Marquis is for!

              Well, at least Marquis can hit the occasional grand slam.

              The Rays outfield is one of the better outfields that I have seen in a while. Personally, I liked the Devil Rays name better than just the Rays.

                I'm really OK with the Cardinals' season. This team was supposed to be terrible, and (aside from the bullpen) they were really fun to watch. Sure, they were frustrating at times, but I'll take 10 games over .500 considering they had major injuries to three key players and many picked them to lose 90 games.

                    Are any of you Cubs fans enjoying your postseason so far?

                    Wow. What an embarrassment.

                      Careful, ER3. Easy on the smack talk while there's still a glimmer of hope. Don't want to jinx anything...

                        Just glad the soxs are losing too.

                        Still hopeful the Cubs can turn it around and these first two are the only two they lose until next season.

                          I'll eat a little crow after the first two games. But it's not over yet.

                            Yeah, it's definitely not over...if Harden can shut them down in game 3, it will be interesting to see how the Dodgers play with some pressure on them...anything can happen in a short series...
                            But the midwestern teams sure are taking it on the chin so far...cubs, sox, and brewers 0-6...

                              I'm not sure which performance was worse: Cardinals in the '04 World Series or the Cubs wetting the bed in these three games.
