3/10 ST: LA Angels (Lackey) (SS) vs. Cubs (Hill), 2:05pm CT

[Laura]

As far as I know, there's no broadcast for this game.

 

You can follow the exciting MLB Gamecast through the MLB Scoreboard page.

 

An overview from Bruce Miles:

 

Reliever Roberto Novoa is taking antibiotics for pneumonia and will be out a “few days,” according to Dusty Baker. … Lefty reliever Scott Eyre didn’t make the trip [yesterday] because of a stiff neck that’s been bothering him recently. Dusty Baker said it’s likely Eyre will pitch today. … Second baseman Jerry Hairston, who was hit in the head by a pitched ball Sunday, hasn’t played since then. He may play today.

The game is on AM 710 or 830 for those of you in LA, the OC, San Diego and the IE.

 

I won't be around the computer to give updates, hopefully for all of you, one of our other SoCal posters will be.

 

According to the LA Times, it's a split squad game.

[goonys evil twin]

XM says it's airing the other half of the Angels split squad, which might mean the socal radio is actually broadcasting that game, and not the Cubs game.

[Laura]

Yep, Gameday Audio shows the other SS Angels game on the schedule, but not the Cubs game.

i thought xm couldn't broadcast split squad games. i'm really disappointed in their ST coverage...it blows.

Grissom playing and batting 5th?

[Laura]

Thanks, Bruce!

 

This is making me wish I could have made a trip out there this spring.

[Outshined_One]

Oh this is going to be a fun day.

 

Anyone want to put the over-under on the number of E-5s and E-6s today?

[abuck1220]

go hill!

[Brian]

i don't see the shock of Walker at 1B, he started there in the regular season when Lee was hurt.

[Vinestal]

Anyone heard anything new about Aramis? I see he is not in the line up again today. Hopefully tommorow I guess. This line up is pretty weak without Barret, Lee and Ramirez.

So what are we at, 5 days with this infection? I hope he's keeping in shape in the meantime.

*sigh* yes typical Cubs injury maddness.

[Laura]

I caught a brief clip of Aramis on one of the Chicago news stations last night. He was fielding grounders and they said he was taking fielding practice but not batting practice yet. That's all they said.

You think Ronny is going to have a bad day

For those interested, here's the Cubs press notes for the game.

I think he is saying Todd Walker will not catch his throws.

[craig]

go hill!

 

Would be nice to see Hill put up a "Wow" start where he looks really impressive. Obviously Rusch never looks that good, and Williams hasn't, and Wuertz and Williamson have had some bad outings this week. (Williamson had a shutout inning yesterday, but 4 of 6 batters reached...)

 

Would be nice if Hill could have a sharp game and get me enthused about a pitcher.

[abuck1220]

hill gave up a run on two hits in the first.

[BeerHere]

Some Cubbie has an error that certainly didn't help.

Detroit put up a 7 spot against LA in the 5th.
