Good to see him in right now.

Confidence builder. If one of our starters goes down, I’m sure they are ready to put him in right away, especially with Frankie doing so well out of the bullpen.

The IF we have is good enough to prevent any huge slump. Look at how the Cubs IF played tonight…and imagine Marquis relying on them.

but if Marquis leaves stuff up…the infield wont be getting many chances.

Well this game has been frustrating

The Rox have played well, but the Cubs have managed to score every time they have been given a second chance by the umps/Rox.

Hard to do

I hate Cubs fans

Start Seth Smith! Free Eric Young Jr.!

Agreed.

I want to reach into the TV and strangle him. And tie bricks to his feet and throw him in the river. After I tar and feather him first, of course.

Rockies drop an entirely winnable game.

Wells vs. Hammel tomorrow. I find that terrifying.

If we're voting for a member of the starting rotation to be given the boot

in favour of the Machine, I vote Hammel.

Argh. I’m going to be pissed until we win tomorrow.

There was a game tonight? I didn’t know that. I just expect a win tomorrow.

Just finished watching the game

I wanted to strangle that Cubs fan behind home plate in my anger for the Rockies loss. Screw the Cubs.

Him too

but the Umpire was worse, even the radio guys said his strike zone was all over the place: “amoeba like”

I think Marquis was definitely not in his right mind today...

I think he got flustered when the calls were not going his way….

I can't help but feeling

that things would have been different with a competent umpiring squad.

I hate the Cubs. Must win tomorrow.

I love Greg Reynolds. Deal with it, suckers.

by Silverblood on Aug 8, 2009 8:58 PM MDT reply actions  

We were forced to give runs away

we were given runs back and we didn’t take advantage. This was not what I wanted to have happen today.
