I will be extremely disappointed if the Cubs lose to Kip Wells.

[C.C.]

I will be extremely disappointed if the Cubs lose to Kip Wells.

 

I will be disappointed if we don't take 2/3.

Indeed.

They could've just put the extra game today and made it a 4-game series instead of a double header sometime later in the season.

We are owed a game with them?

Yeah... The day Josh Hancock died the Cubs were in St. Louis. That game was canceled and postponed to a later date. September 15 double header.

Yes, there is a day-night double header on 9/15 at STL as makeup for the 4/29 Josh Hancock game that was postponed. The first game will be at 12:10 pm on WGN and the second game (originally scheduled for 2:55pm) will start at 7:10pm on CSN.

 

FYI, I'm sure one of the reasons why they didn't schedule the double header for this series is because the Cardinals are already playing a day-night double header with the Brewers on Saturday (7/28). That is a makeup for a game that was postponed on 4/13.

Yeah, I had forgotten about that.

 

Hopefully Anthony Reyes can get his first win of the season (yeah, right) on Saturday against the Brewers.

[kujay]

Jacque Jones owns Kip Wells: .421, 2 HRs

Ramirez: .308, HR

Lee: 2 HRs

Soriano 6 for 8

Z is 1 for 2 ;)

Looking good for us.

 

means we will be shut out

You're probably right, but I'm gonna go out on a limb and say we crush Wells. 10-2 Cubs

is maroth a lefty? if so then that is really [expletive] to bump him for kip wells cuz we all know the cubs problems against Left handed starters this season....Here's hopin the return of DLee starts another nice stretch of wins after *gasp* losing two in a row for the first time in a month

 

Maroth has an 8.10 ERA for St. Louis

 

Appears the Cards are skipping Maroth. Their website, and Len said this yesterday during the game as well, shows Wells, Wainwright and then Looper for the series.

Doesn't Z own STL in STL?

days off suck

 

They could've just put the extra game today and made it a 4-game series instead of a double header sometime later in the season.

 

We are owed a game with them?

 

Yes, there is a day-night double header on 9/15 at STL as makeup for the 4/29 Josh Hancock game that was postponed. The first game will be at 12:10 pm on WGN and the second game (originally scheduled for 2:55pm) will start at 7:10pm on CSN.

 

FYI, I'm sure one of the reasons why they didn't schedule the double header for this series is because the Cardinals are already playing a day-night double header with the Brewers on Saturday (7/28). That is a makeup for a game that was postponed on 4/13.

 

Also, isn't there something in the CBA that says teams can't play more than 20 days in a row. If so, that's why they couldn't reschedule the game for today.

I'm going to games 2 and 3 of this series....sure would be nice to have a series win wrapped up by Wednesday night.

I broke down in the middle of last week's winning streak euphoria and procured tix for all three games. They better not get swept now!

 

Oddly, I'll then be there on Saturday, rooting on the Cards against the Brewers. :shock: :?

 

Breaking out the Marquis jersey shirt Thurs night?

Oh hell yeah...2nd row of the LF Bleachers, on Wednesday night...if he's out there it'd be cool as hell if I could get him to sign it...Thursday I'm up stairs and we're bringing the kids...2 boys, under the age of 3....that ought to be fun...the older one will watch but I'm thinking Mom will have to take them to the kids area in the 3rd or 4th.

 

I've really thought hard about picking up a ticket for tomorrow too...I want to see Z pitch.

I'll be in the Cardinals Club, right behind home plate for Wednesday's game. I'll be watching this one from a hotel in Horn Lake, MS.

If there is such a clause, I'd really like to know why we played something like 26 games in 24 days at the end of 2004 due to Hurricane Frances wiping out a Marlins series.

 

BTW, normally I'd assume a loss, but the Cubs have always smashed Kip Wells to my recollection.

For some reason I'm thinking there was a player vote to allow that situation. There is definitely a clause about needing X amount of off days.

Win, you pathetic bunch of bums.
