Lets hope Blanco plays.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Let's hope for a continued rebound from Ted Lilly. It is just the Nationals for Christ's sake.

[otis89]

Just win, losers.

[erik316wttn]

So what are the odds Lilly has something resembling a (or, heaven forbid, a full-blown) 4th inning meltdown?

 

That's got to be a mental thing.

So what are the odds Lilly has something resembling a (or, heaven forbid, a full-blown) 4th inning meltdown?

 

That's got to be a mental thing.

Taking a look at the stats, this could very well happen if he had to face Felipe Lopez two, three times in a row. Other than that, he should be fine.

Lets hope Blanco plays.

 

Tribune

"He caught a shutout," Piniella said. "And he was shut out also. But listen, we teach our catchers here to carry the pitching staff first, and hitting is second. And he worked that to a T today. I've never seen a guy strike out eight times in eight at-bats.

 

"To his credit, he called a heck of a game. When he needed to steady Zambrano, he did his job. Like he told me after the game, 'We won, and that's what matters.' That's a nice statement from a young man, but I think we'll give him [sunday] off."

[CubmanPi]

How many more players have to be thrown out before we can stop stealing third already?

[BCVM22]

Yeah, I'd like it if Cub baserunners could stop making Johnny Estrada look like Johnny Bench please.

Nice. By the way, how bad was Lee's SB attempt at third? Did it look like Lou called that or that he tried it on a green light?

[BCVM22]

I can't imagine Lou would have called it in the 2nd inning, with the Cubs up by 5 and Aramis at the plate; my guess would be Lee running on his own. He was out by a fairly decent margin as close steal attempts go.

[Andy]

Normally I'd be certain that a lefty the Cubs have never faced would shut us out. This year I'm just worried. Big difference.

[cubbyvirus00]

Cedeno better be starting

[CubColtPacer]

Cedeno better be starting

 

I see no reason why he wouldn't..the lineup will likely be close to the last two days..something like this:

 

Johnson

Theriot

Lee

Ramirez

Fukudome

DeRosa

Cedeno

Blanco

Lilly

Let's get outta washington with a win.

[bcl412]

Winning road trip before Brewers and Cardinals series=good

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

agreed

 

And I am so not getting the work done I needed to today. Draft again and then Cubs game...maybe later.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

please stop having Cubs games on WGN. k, thx

[javy knows my name]

please stop having Cubs games on WGN. k, thx

Please only have them on WGN so I can watch them and so I don't ever have to watch the Brewers feed when they play them

[UK1679666180]

Lannan tall lanky LH'er, struggles with command, throws a good two seamer (upper 80s) with sink and will throw a change to RH'ers. Doesn't have much of a breaking ball to LH'ers.

 

It wasn't often that I could say this before this year, I expect the Cubs to work deep counts against him.

 

The key of the game for the Cubs offense will be how well he keeps the ball down. If he's on, the Cubs will be rolling over the ball and grounding out to 3B and SS. Hopefully, all those DBs down the 3B line are an indication of what'll happen today.

 

If I was charting the game, I would note the location of his FB moreso than anything else.

[ctcf]

It'd be nice to leave April with a single digit in the Loss column.

 

EDIT: Wow, MLB.com says they've matched their highest April win total with 16.

That's impressive! And we aren't even clicking on all cylinders.

DC-area radio show last night was talking about how embarrassing/annoying it is to be out-louded in your own park. I'm looking forward to more of the same today. I've been surrounded in Cubs fans both games. Off to the park - let's see the series win, Cubs.
