3/28ST Cubs (Prior) Vs. Rockies (Cook) 3:05 CT

[BRASKYS SCOTCH]

OT question: what's the name of that ticket broker that's actually partnered with the Cubs? About ready to eat a ridiculous cost for a Cubs fan coming into town for the 4/14 Reds game in the bleachers.

 

Have you tried stubhub.com?

 

 

Yeah, just trying to determine options and compare. So far, little difference.

I think it's Wrigley Field Premium Ticket Services.

 

edit: The Cubs own that resell company

so the cubs must be scoring like 15 runs since this inning seems to be taking forever.

Soriano Homers!

[C.C.]

Fonz with a 2-run shot!

[Bruce Miles]

Prior is done. 60 pitches, 37 strikes, 2 wild pitches

 

How was the velocity on his pitches?

 

There are no radar readings readily available here. We'll have to get the readings later, but he looked appreciably better this time out. His defense let him down, ran up his pitch count and probably cost him an inning of work.

Fonz with a 2-run shot!

 

Good for him. He was struggling the past few games.

[CubColtPacer]

Wuertz pitched a scoreless inning with a walk and two K's. I think that outing may have solidified him on the team again-if he had struggled mightily one more time, he would have been down to Triple A.

[PrimeTime]

Wuertz in.

[C.C.]

Wuertz looked like he had a strong inning with 2ks.

Prior is done. 60 pitches, 37 strikes, 2 wild pitches

There are no radar readings readily available here. We'll have to get the readings later, but he looked appreciably better this time out. His defense let him down, ran up his pitch count and probably cost him an inning of work.

 

How far away would you guess he is from pitching in the rotation?

2-3 weeks to a month.

[CubColtPacer]

Floyd singles and is lifted for a pinch-runner-either there was an injury or Lou is furious with him to be lifted this early in the game this late in ST.

 

Edit: Maybe not-there were a couple other substitutions as well.

Murton, Theriot and Guzman in

I'm assuming Miller is the one to go.

Wow, that's better than I thought. Any idea how the Cubs would handle that? I assume Miller would be the odd man out (most likely they will trade him).

[E.J.]

The Gooz is in to pitch.

Ahh, that's not too bad considering he's around 60 pitches right now.

Go Gooz!

[seanimal]

The way Miller has been pitching... if he can keep it up, I'd rather see Marquis traded to the Reds for Marge Schott's dog.
