Miles reminds me of Gimli.

Gimli looke like he could knock the cover off the ball. Miles, not so much.

So far, the Cubs haven't drawn a single walk.

[CP_414]

Lt Hammy strain..that would mean 1 missed start, right?

 

It's going to be longer than that. Pedro missed 2 months last year with a strained left hamstring. Vernon Wells missed a month. Stephen Drew and Brenden Ryan are on the DL now with it. I'd be shocked if Z avoids the DL.

Amezaga, pinch hitting for Nolasco, grounded out to second, 4-3

Of course that depends on the severity of the sprain. If it's mild he might not even miss a start. If there's microtrauma he may have a DL stint. I'm sure he didn't do any worse than that. Which means he will miss up to 3 starts depending on how he heals.

Nice job by Gooz with the bowels of the Marlins lineup. So will Lou go with Marmol to Gregg to finish up?

[Brian]

Anybody else get the feeling Greg told the Cubs he'd show up but there was no way in hell he was going to sing?

[Bull]

depends how bad its strained. If it was bad enough for Z to pull himself could be bad. But if its not bad he could be day to day.

 

Do you stretch Guzman to 3 innings here in case he needs to spot start for Z?

Thats why its good to have guys like Dempster and Marshall at the back end of the rotation, you can afford to lose your ace for a few starts. Hoever, if its any worse than that, like I said, go after Pedro.

Also, I'm taking credit for today's win because I kept Nolasco in my fantasy line-up.
