I will get right to it:

 

Phil Dumatrait

0-1, 7.71 ERA, 9.3 IP, 5 BB, 6 K, 2.14 WHIP

 

vs:

 

Ted Lilly

13-5, 3.51 ERA, 151.3 IP, 41 BB, 124 K, 1.13 WHIP

In his two starts against the Reds: 1-1, 1.38 ERA, 13 IP, 2 BB, 19 K

 

A victory over the Reds would be nice.

[TMan92]

If the Reds starter is a soft tossing lefty, I am worried.

I'll be watching this one so hopefully the Cubs will play well and win.

[Sammy Sofa]

Tuesday's night game was heartbreaking. I hope the Cubs can win and put it behind them ASAP.

Never heard of him. Hopefully we can do as well or better as we did with Harrikala.

LOL, this translates to a guaranteed quality start against the Cubs

[Cynosure]

7.71 ERA means a 2 hitter.

[C.C.]

We are going to light this guy up tonight. Cubs win 9-3. Lee's going yard tonight.

Is that before or after they put in a reliever with 1.13 ERA? Because certainly we can't hit someone who has a 7.71 ERA.

[otis89]

Win, you pathetic bunch of losers!

[tinkerstoeverstochance]

please don't have dero in the line up! he's swinging flat footed and pulling off pitches.

 

A win would be nice.. Lets get this train rolling!!!!

[Cynosure]

Who bets Lilly ends the season with more wins than Zambrano?

 

I am glad we got this guy for 2 more years.

3 years, right?

[Cynosure]

Yes I was mistaken... 4 year deal, silly me.

[badgercub]

What does the weather look like for the game tonight? Before I make the 2.5 hour drive this afternoon, just wondering if it looks like they'll get the game in.

[Keener98]

we lose

Yeah, this pitching matchup heavily favors the Cubs, so I don't see how we can't win tonight.

 

Lilly is the starting pitcher I'm most confident in.

[weis21]

let's try to hit singles and THEN homeruns cubs. it's time to move kendall up in the lineup, his .402 OBP isn't helping much in the 8 hole.

[CubsNSkers07]

Is it supposed to rain all day in chicago tell me know I can't stand to not have a game after yesterdays loss.

I wouldn't mind it. Give everyone another day of rest.

True but after Fontenot's fell as short from a home run as it did I need my cubs fix for the day haha.
