8/31 Phillies (Moyer) @ Cubs (Marshall ) - 1:20 CT WGN TV

[Yeti]

I have a bold prediction for today's other game. Probably bolder than the Theriot HR prediction yesterday.

 

The Pirates hand CC his first loss as a Brewer today.

i want some of whatever you've been smokin the last couple days

:) I don't know...I just have a feeling.

 

Karstens is a better pitcher than he's been the last 3 starts. The Pirates didn't do awful against CC last weekend. Pittsburgh's due for a win, etc.

[UMFan83]

I have never seen so many days with the wind blowing in during the summer in my life.

[UMFan83]

Whoops, Rickie Weeks leadoff HR looks like I am on crack.

Oh I didn't predict the Theriot thing, someone else did.

[UMFan83]

It's crazy how Philly has put a RISP in all 4 Top 1sts in this series.

 

3 times they've scored. Yesterday they didn't

[UMFan83]

Howard is starting to hit lefties again. This could be bad for the NL

[inari]

I think this game might end up with a reallllly high score.

The wind is blowing in, unless you are suggesting that both teams are going to kill the opposing pitchers.

I am suggesting that.

 

At the very least, the Phillies are going to annihilate Sean Marshall.

I hate Werth

[Outshined_One]

This game's going to suck.

[UMFan83]

Not to get all pessimistic, but the Phillies have outplayed us this series to this point.

[Ski]

Hey wow, another game where we have to come back. Why am I not surprised. Can't the Cubs have a nice quiet inning while I play MLB Power Pros?

[UMFan83]

Werth is 6-10 with 3 doubles, 2 home runs, 3 BB, 6 RBIs this series for a line of .600/.692/1.778/2.470

 

Earlier this year he was 4-8, 1 double, 1 home run, 2 BB, 3 RBI, 2 SB against the Cubs for a line of .500/.636/1.000/1.636

 

 

So Werth vs. the Cubs this year:

 

10-18

4 doubles

3 home runs

5 walks

9 RBIs

2 SB

 

.556 BA

.652 OBP

1.277 SLG

1.929 OPS

How, may I ask, did you determine that?

[TMan92]

Let's get a couple back from old puss arm!

We've been outpitched, and gotten lucky a few games.

[TruffleShuffle]

now playing the role of pat burrell, jayson werth

[Ski]

Nice to know that a pitch 4 inches off the plate is a strike.

[TMan92]

Nice to know that a pitch 4 inches off the plate is a strike.

 

 

If Moyer gets that call we will absolutely not win this game.

[UMFan83]

I figured with a new home plate ump we would get a better strike zone. I was really wrong, and its really really going to work against us today.

[DivineBovine]

We're screwed if he keeps getting that pitch.
