The Dord of Darien

Musings from the Mayor of the Internet

There it goes

I’m officially declaring this a Cubs Moment — we’ve now lost five in a row to rotten teams. Our offense has been completely MIA during this last week; what is up with no runs scored tonight with Houston starting (and never relieving) a pitcher with a 4.47 ERA? Poor Ryan Dempster took the loss, but really it should be split evenly among every position player on the team.

As if the offensive dirt nap weren’t enough, we also have the Mystery of the Missing Zambrano, as Big Z has been utterly ineffective over his last six starts and now has a Mysterious Ailment in his arm that for some reason he left the hospital without having MRIed. I mean, sure, anybody can get injured, but it takes a special kind of player to forget to have the MRI done before he leaves the hospital so it can drag the whole process out that much longer.

It takes a Cubs player.
