Didn't the Royals beat the Giants in a game Lincecum started earlier this year?

You fail the sarcasm class of the day

I don't see why the sarcasm was necessary there.

Murton with a start against a righty?

[abuck1220]

glad to see murton get a start against a righty. neither cedeno nor patterson are doing much for me these days.

I'm sure a lot of it has to do with not getting playing time, but Cedeno has completely regressed to the player he was last year instead of the guy at the beginning of the season who was taking pitches and having good at-bats.

Murton with a start against a righty?

 

Right-handers have killed Correia this year, and Murton's also the best defensive outfielder the Cubs have on the bench at the moment. It's probably a good move.

 

Considering the pitcher's splits, I'd be tempted to start Cedeno over Fontenot, but Fontenot is playing so much better than Cedeno right now and the fact that the pitcher has faced less than 200 batters total this year makes me want to avoid the split and start Fontenot anyway.

plesac pronouncing ichiro "ichiroo" (rhymes with scooby doo).

Waking up about 3 hours after this one ends. Here's hoping I wake up to good news. Good night everyone.

 

Go Cobs.

I'm behind it all the way, I was just a little surprised to see him in there.

A win would be nice.

I like the stars and stripes caps.

They're a little jacked up, but they could certainly be worse.

[weatherdood]

Don't feel bad, I asked a couple of games ago because I had no idea what to do either.
