Maddux will go tommorow and Wood will go on Tuesday.

 

Maddux vs Marquis- Sun

Zambrano vs Nieve-Mon

Wood vs Buchholtz-Tues

Marshall vs Rodriguez-Wed

 

Not bad. We miss out on Oswalt and Petitte.

[E.J.]

At this point, we should wish to face Petitte. He's been pretty bad this year.

If they can broom the Cards and take 2 of 3 from the Stros, that's a pretty good sign.

Cubs have won four out of five to climb back to ten games under .500! Anyways, hopefully Maddux can keep up his good pitching against the Cards, especially with Pujols hopefully not in the lineup. Man I have missed having three days in a row of Maddux, Zambrano, and Wood. Get up here soon Prior!

That's fine everyone is on their normal schedule because of the off day and Woody pushes back an extra day to give him more rest until his shoulder is normal game shape. Sounds fine to me.

Even if they lose tomorrow, they just took 4 of 2 from the top 2 teams in the division. If they at least win the series with the 'Stros with Lee and Prior almost right around the corner, I may have to start getting annoyingly optimistic. If Hendy does the unthinkable and makes a killer trade to top it off, I just might have to dance naked in public. If Neifi gets DFA'ed as well, I'll kill a man and wear his pelt in triumph.

Ok, now you're just getting greedy.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Yea...:cheers: it looks like I might actually see this pitiful team win some in Houston.

[soccer10k]

As long as he doesn't have to skip a start, I'm alright with pushing him back one day.

[cubfan1955]

Didn't they push him back two days? From Sunday to Tuesday?

[snoodmonger]

Sweet. A man-suit.

[woodchip2153]

Maybe they pushed him back since our bullpen has thrown a lot of innings the last two games and they think they can get more innings out of Maddux. Just a thought, i haven't looked at anybody's ip in the bullpen, and I know it's hard to overuse a 7 man bullpen.
