Cubs vs. Rockies 4/15/09

[Fella]

Maybe Patton for 2, Guzman for 2 and Vizcaino for 2? Might make them all unavailable for tomorrow though.

[Butcher]

I'm listening to Pat and Ron, so I can't see...is the strike zone really tight or was Harden wild?

VROOM VROOM PAR-TAY STA-TAH!!

Right about now I wish Lou had let Aramis play today.

Why is Theriot swinging at the first pitch against Marquis?

[Butcher]

Marquis is making it look easy.

He wasn't super wild, but he was nipping at the corners and missing. His fastball had a ton of late movement and it was taking it out of the strikezone. Really crazy outing. only 5 balls put in play and all were hits (although one was a bullshit safe call) and he had 8 strikeouts in 3 innings.

His stuff was great, things kinda just fell apart, a couple times it seemed like he threw get me over fastballs when he got frustrated and they smacked them. Weird game.

When you have a perennial all-star like Marquis on the mound, you have to get to him early in the count. You don't want to get in a count where he can drop that 88 MPH fastball on you.

This is just one of those days where it feels like we aren't going to score any runs.

Seemed like a legitimate question.

[Quinn]

We have one f'ing hit.

I think it's just more frustrated nonsense.
