And this would be a .500 team right now if we had a bullpen even with this terrible offense.

so would boston.

coulda woulda shoulda

 

[daddies3angels]

Bowden was a great pickup...theo sucks ass...

RIght both teams are under .500 for a reason.

[85Bears4life]

Yahoo had this:

T. Campana flied out on a bunt to catcher

He flied out on a bunt to the catcher? :andruw:

Patrick Mooney‏@CSNMooney

Carlos Marmol left the game with a right hamstring strain.

sounds like DL time

RIght both teams are under .500 for a reason.

but we cant look and say oh its the BP and whatnot that blew a few games. how many games did the cubs comeback where the oppositions bp imploded. it happened to the sox with valverde for example.

 

[dabynsky]

Not looking good. Stewart, Johnson, and DeJesus versus Axford. Hopefully only needing to scratch one run across.

 

[Jntg4]

Bowden will hit go-ahead HR.

 

[DewsSox79]

sounds like DL time

thats the last thing you want right now with him

 

[Rice Cube]

Even with a good bullpen you can't assume that they'll always be lights out. Even good relievers will blow holds and saves.

 

[dabynsky]

Was I the only way that had flashbacks to Bill Mueller when DeJesus slide into the wall?

I know though Milwaukee has held the lead heading into the eighth something like 54 straight games. We have that kind of streak and this team's record is much better than it is. I know it is a pointless game to play, but you can't help but wonder what might have been if the bullpen hadn't been so shaky.
