Only Ryan Dempster and Kerry Wood are meaningful contributors eligible for free agency (sorry Jim Edmonds, Bob Howry, and Henry Blanco.) Given the market (read: insane money) thrown at starters and closers I'm not so sure either will return, although given their special circumstances it's more likely than, say, Francisco Rodriguez returning to the Angels. Wood in particular is probably a 95% guarantee...
Ryan Braun’s two-run homer in the eighth off Bob Howry broke a tie and lifted the Brewers to victory and to the playoffs for the first time in 26 years.
I have only one word to say about today's game: What on Earth is Bob Howry doing on a major league roster, much less a playoff roster? OK, that's 17 words, but you get my point. Ryan Braun smacked a game-winning homer in the 8th inning off Howry and the Brewers beat the Cubs 3-1, and when the Marlins beat the Mets 4-2, the Mets were eliminated and the Brewers won the NL Wild Card, sending the Cubs...
Filed: September 28th, 2008 Loathing Bob Howry has gone from a Cubbie Nation pastime to a true national endeavor. Ryan Braun hit him for a two-run home run in the eighth Sunday, to propel the Milwaukee Brewers to a 3-1 victory. Coupled with the Mets 4-2 loss to the Marlins, the Brewers are officially the NL Wildcard winner, and will be making their first playoff appearance since 1982. Bring on the...
[104-year-old Lee Hildbebrand tosses out the first pitch today, and only after Lee visits Cubs rehab in Arizona will Piniella decide Bob Howry’s October future] [Piniella, refusing to get excited] Cubs manager Lou Piniella spent the better part of the morning deflating expectation in Chicago to any and all who would listen, before they asked him if [...]
Filed: September 15th, 2008 The very next game after Carlos Zambrano's historic no-hitter of the Astros, Ted Lilly makes his attempt to up the anty, taking his own no-hit bid into the seventh, and combining with Jeff Samardzija, Carlos Marmol, and Bob Howry for a one-hitter against the same team. In the end, the Cubs win 6-1 going away, and leaving Houston, well....ready to blast off. Let's get something...
When CSTB first sent me this clip, I thought it was Ozzie Guillien spinning his rap career into a post-season WWE tour. Nope, it’s an episode of “Santino’s casa,” in which the WWE’s Santino Marella trash-talks the Cubs to Bob Howry and Ryan Dempster. Casa, a comedy heel, currently holds the Inter-Continental Championship Belt courtesy [...]
ATLANTA -- Mark Kotsay hit a seventh-inning double off Chicago Cubs reliever Bob Howry to become the first Atlanta Braves player to hit for the cycle since 1987.
I'm a relatively patient person - a dog, twin 3-year old daughters, the Angel-fan wife and being a Cubs fan do that to a person. But the antics of Bob Howry have grown tiresome. And yeah, I'm probably the last on that bandwagon (see above about being patient).I mean, he was good for us in 2006 and 2007. Not great, but good; as he posted ERA's of 3.17 and 3.32, along with respectable win probabilty...

I shouldn't complain, not after the Cubs win again, 11-7 over the Astros on a muggy afternoon that had hints of yesterday's rainfall even while the sun was shining most of the day. But I'm going to anyway, just for a moment. What were Lou and Bob Howry thinking? With two out, a runner on second and Carlos Lee at bat and the Cubs hanging on to a precarious 6-5 lead in the top of the seventh, it's an...
Ryan Dempster stifled the Marlins on Friday afternoon at Wrigley Field, limiting them to just one run on two hits but Jeff Samardzija allowed Florida to climb back into contention and Bob Howry gave up the game winning hit, a Jeremy Hermida solo home run. The 3-2 Florida victory evened up this four game set, [...]
