Dan Plesac is an idiot.

He said that they can't call up Pie or put another rookie in a starting position because there are already 2 guys who "don't know what they're doing" playing every day for the Cubs, and three is too many.

[killthegoat06]

Does anyone know who was called up for this game to replace pagan?

 

It will be announced after the game, but it will be a pitcher, according to Santo.

 

Why would it be announced after the game if the pitcher is allowed to pitch in the game?

The CUBS AAA team is currently in Round Rock, TX. They couldn't have gotten a player up to the 'Burgh in time to get rested and still be able to play today, so they didn't even try. Perhaps they aren't announcing the player yet because they haven't made up their mind yet. I don't know.

One of Jones or Mabry has to be available to start, they just have to. If we're calling up Novoa to make sure the pen's rested for a sequence of starts, then something needs to be done about this situation. DFA Bynum and bring up Restovich, it's what should've been done to start the season.

Jones is being held out until we hit Los Angeles, and Mabry is still hurting. He may be available to pinch hit today, but that's it.

Jeez we're screwed. We have neifi and barrett and hairston to pinch hit and that's it. (if mabry can't)

Good thing Rusch is a pretty good hitter, eh?

Lets get this thing started.

[Omar]

I still think Hairston should be in RF.

Definately. That's what I thought was going to happen. Obviously I was wrong.

[Mizzou]

I must have missed something... what happened to Mabry?

[Transmogrified Tiger]

12:35 is upon us, get your predictions in. I'll go out on a limb and say 3-4 for the first AB.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Stiff neck from the collision with Casey on Friday.

[soccer10k]

The Pirates announcer on MLB.TV didn't realize that he was on the air and just said "I don't know what you're talking about" and then a few seconds later said "What's your name?" He didn't say anything else.

Mabry should be happy he isn't Sean Casey right now.
