Go CUBS !!

[98navigator]

Hopefully, the Cubs bludgeon Maddux with runs! I want to win this series.

[otis89]

I like Maddux, and I'm glad to see him continue to do well, but I demand a blowout!

[Omar]

Maddux is my most favorite player of all time.

 

Hill is my favorite Cubs pitcher.

 

Quality start (6IP, 3 ER) for Maddogg, but a CGSO for Hill.

 

Git-R-DONE!

[TruffleShuffle]

Git-R-DONE!

 

](*,)

 

Hill pitches very well but as usual gets no run support, and the cubs lose.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Fred, if I didn't know better I'd think you were following me.

[anabiono]

no...dlee plays tomorrow going 4/4 with 2 homers

 

soriano adds another homer

 

and so does floyd

 

cubs win 15-2

 

bring on whoever wants a piece...the cubs are vicious creatures

I'm hoping Maddux gets lit up like six hippies with a bong and a full stash of hash!

[Omar]

No one thinks Lee will sit this one out?

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

No one thinks Lee will sit this one out?

 

No way he sits it out. Even if they announce a suspension on Sunday, Lee will appeal. He'll play. I have no doubt---unless there's swelling on the wrist that prohibits him from playing.

:lol: couldn't agree more.

[Schwarber Fan]

Floyd with 2 HRs against Maddux

Barrett should start - .344

Izturis, Jones, Soriano, Theriot all at .333

DLee has homered off Maddux as well

[CubColtPacer]

Floyd with 2 HRs against Maddux

Izturis, Jones, Soriano, Theriot all at .333

DLee has homered off Maddux as well

 

Lou already said that Barrett will start, so that's good. Floyd and Lee have both not been good in a lot of at-bats against Maddux, but hopefully Maddux not being what he was in Atlanta will help those two out. It's hard to tell which one of Theriot or Izturis will start-my leaning is towards Izturis, since Theriot has started the first 2 games of the series and Izturis is 4/12 against Maddux with a walk, but it really could be either one of them.

My guess is Theriot at 2B with Izturis at SS and a day off for Fontenot

[98navigator]

FYI

 

Mike Fontenot appears to be a long-term call-up instead of a short-term fix while Aramis Ramirez mends. "I don't know where he's going, but right now, the way he's playing … he shouldn't have too much concern," Piniella said.

[killthegoat06]

How about one lousy run?

[IWU_CUBS_FAN]

i got pie with 3 SB and Lee just goes off....on the ball not the pitcher...which is good for me cuz ill be down the left field line tomorrow

[otis89]

How about one lousy run?

 

So, you want us to lose 2-1 instead of 1-0?

[killthegoat06]

How about one lousy run?

How about one more lousy run than the other team?

[IWU_CUBS_FAN]

How about one more lousy run than the other team?

 

and one less lousy punch thrown by a cubs player...they need to just win the series

[IWU_CUBS_FAN]

so i was thinking that when barrett got in the fight with AJP last year he went on an absolute tear....so maybe just maybe Lee will go on a tear, which would be even greater because Lee was already playin really well...

 

 

WIN A SERIES

[sunnydoo]

If this turns into a bean ball war, will anyone be concerned with getting hit?

 

 

Go Cubbies.

[illiniguy]

If this turns into a bean ball war, will anyone be concerned with getting hit?

 

 

Go Cubbies.

I really doubt the Padres want to get into a bean ball war with Maddux as their pitcher. Now if we score a bunch on him and knock him out, then maybe that could happen.
