9/1 Astros (Oswalt) vs Cubs (Obscene nickname) 3:05 WGN

[Keener98]

Dome 2nd and Theriot 8th huh? Alright then.

 

Well they do have nearly the same OPS, and Theriot hasnt exactly been on fire the last 10 days or so. Actually over the last 10 days Fuku has hit for a better average, for whatever thats worth

[RedFlash]

I know it is Oswalt on the mound, but the Cubs should smash the Astros today.

[haubrich91]

Please win.

[Keener98]

Kosuke is 1-3 lifetime vs. Oswalt and Theriot is 1-5 lifetime?

 

Plus Kosuke has been walking more lately (although thats all he's been doing)

 

That's my best guess, but I realize I didn't make a great argument

 

Well Theriot has dropped off quite a bit in August as well, so its not like hes been tearing the cover off the ball.

LOL, the Astros are 24-10 in their last 34 games, but the Cubs over that time frame are 25-9 and the Brewers are 21-13 so they've lost a game to the Cubs and gained only 3 games on the Brewers.

[Keener98]

I fully expect Marquis to be terrible today after having his best start of the year his last time out.

[UMFan83]

If we could avoid giving up a run in the 1st inning for once that would be nice.

[Keener98]

Good morning, good afternooon. goodnight

This is actually good that the Cubs bats are slumping now. Let them slump now at the beginning of September, and then get hot at the end/early October.

So is the weather..... every day, it's the same thing. Highs in the upper 80s, lows in the mid 70s, chance of isolated showers in the afternoon. [/yawn]
