[CubsGM]

We lose this one by 1 thanks to that. I'm calling it now!

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 25-1 when they lead after 6 innings

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[XZero771679666304]

Why not let Wuertz go one more? Now I'm nervous.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Cotts in to pitch for the CUBS

Lots of lefties. I woulda gone with Eyre over Cotts though.

Marmol and Wood both available today?

[XZero771679666304]

So is Marmol available today? I hope not.

[BCVM22]

Marmol and Wood both available today?

 

It would be the third day in a row for both of them, so yes, but that rules them both out for tomorrow.

[JockJones]

So is Marmol available today? I hope not.

 

He could be available. He only threw 10 pitches yesterday and they were low stress.

[rawaction]

Gotta get a couple more runs, as to rest Marmol and Wood. Would like to see some combo of Cotts, Eyre, Howry finish this out.
