Newbie here to the board. I will be at the game tonight, and was wondering if anyone had seen lineups yet? I thought I heard Lou say he was going to work Cedeno in today or tomorrow....

 

Go Cubs!!!!!!

Welcome to NSBB!

 

Line-ups usually come out 1.5-2 hours before the game.

I love how WCIU puts HD in the right hand corner of the screen.

Give me a break

 

It's only HD if you have a HD antenna.

I have HD and WCIU is the worst picture I have ever seen.

 

I have HD also but WCIU is a local channnel that broadcast HD and they have no HD channel. So in order to get their HD you need a local HD Antenna.

Incorrect. RCN Cable has WCIU HD.

 

I just checked their channel listing and I couldn't find it. What channel is it?

[Sammy Sofa]

Scoring estimates?

 

Seriously, unless Marquis pulls out a miracle like he did in the series with the Brewers, we're likely getting absolutely murdered tonight, even if the bats switch back on.

 

I say Cubs lose, 9-5.

Wow I just bought 2 tickets on stubhub to the Sat Aug 18th game vs STL for 50 bucks total. Section 515 looks like a great view on seatdata. I hadnt been able to find any decently priced tickets for this game at all, and yesterday when I checked stubhub, these werent there. Woo

The only bad seats at Wrigley are the 200 level under the covering.

Anywhere else is a great seat.

[Balsa]

YARGH!

 

I get to watch this game!!

[C.C.]

You know...I'm feeling a Marquis gem tonight. Cubs win 8-2.

[Keener98]

While generally this is true, there have been a couple of occasions where I have found myself right behind a pole that blocked my view of the plate (both in the upper and lower decks). Unfortunately, there's no iron clad way to avoid this (other than to pay mucho dinero to sit in the front sections or the bleachers).

Per the weather channel - winds in from RF (ENE) at 6mph.

Thanks, at least its not blowing out. Lets hope Jason can get that sinker working tonight.

[Mizzou]

I think Marquis is going to step up and have a nice outing tonight. Not sure why, but I see it happening.

Ugh. The thought of more Jones, Floyd, and Kendall in the lineup the rest of the year is maddening.

[badger1679666666]

Jones has been on fire vs. right handed pitching, and floyd will hurt himself again soon. The only one on that list that really is maddening is Kendall. Especially with Soto tearing it up.

A .696 OPS since the All Star Break is on fire now? I understand hes been better, but it would have been really hard to play worse

7-4 Bears over Eagles.

He has a .649 OPS against RH pitchers this season. Again, not really on fire. He's had a decent 2-week stretch, but he still was putting up a sub .800 OPS during that time period.

Negative eight percent?

 

jesus.

[Sammy Sofa]

Has Jaque really been "on fire?" He's had some creeper hits that found some holes and taken a few more walks, but he's still showing the same complete lack of power he's had all year.
