5/11 Snakes (Gonzalez) @ Cubs (Gallagher) 1:20PM WGN

Is Soriano's calf bothering him? Why sit him after 4 hits yesterday? He's finally putting it together at the plate.

 

If there is rain in the forecast then I support saving Z for tomorrow. I just hope he's not one of those pitchers that sucks on extra rest.

I wouldn't trust his calf on a very wet outfield.

 

Lou sounded wasted in his pregame interview.

Did you see him running the bases yesterday? He still doesn't look right.

I like the decisions. Don't risk Z having a short outing due to rain out. Don't risk Soriano's calf.

Why no Fuku?

 

Maybe because Johnson was scheduled to start. With Randy out, maybe fuku will be put back in

 

Man, i am a genius 8-)

[Outshined_One]

Soriano could use an extra day of rest anyway, imo.

[rawaction]

we have the B team out there and poor Ronny still can't sneak into the lineup.

 

but Felix and Gallagher is a good start :D

 

Ronny will play tomorrow vs. Randy Wolf.

[Outshined_One]

Okay, Ryan Dempster is now 100,000 times more awesome in my book.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Is 1st pitch going to be on time or is there going to be a delay to start?

Also, get Shawn Estes on Tuesday! So, he should be in the lineup then also, I would hope.

Definitely looks like a delay to the start. The tarp hasn't come off yet.

Definitely a delay. Tarp is on the field, still raining.

I love your av :D

[Flames24Rulz]

If this game starts, it probably won't start for at least a couple of hours.

He's very well spoken. I imagine a career in broadcasting is there for him after he's done, if he wants it.

Yeah, he's a good dude.

For those of you who are bored, Rich Hill's currently pitching down in Iowa.

 

He's gone 4 scoreless with 7 Ks, 3 hits, and 3 BBs.

Stupid rain. I got up early so I could watch this game and now it's not going to start for a while. Ugh.

[hotshot13422]

ugh, i swear murton is incapable of hitting the ball in the air. GIDP for the red-headed savior of NSBB

[rawaction]

The rain will also help the Cubs skip Leiber most likely. Zambrano tomorrow. Marquis on Tuesday. And then I'd guess it would be obvious to keep Lilly and Dempster on their regularly scheduled days Wed and Thurs, respectively. Then on Friday, you have the choice to go with Leiber or Rich Hill who would be on regular rest and would be able to be called up by then.

I'm pretty much at a loss regarding what happened to him. I once thought he was going to be a 10-15 HR type of guy.

 

Looks like the crew is getting ready to get the tarp off.

[hotshot13422]

Tarp is off!!!

 

Take it with a grain of salt

How do you get up early to watch a game that starts at 1:20 central time? Even in California, that's not the crack of dawn.
