[Careless]

It doesn't matter how well Gregg pitches, he's not finishing the season with 20 saves

[Fred Hornkohl]

Hoffpauir scored on a wild pitch, Theriot to second

[Cubswin11]

Soriano appears to be heating up again, hopefully this is a start of one of his 2-3 weeks of terror. Which is going to be much needed when Bradley is going to miss time with the suspension and Lee/Soto not hitting right now.

[NotSoSober]

Didn't Lou say earlier in the season, that if Gregg warms up, he's going to pitch no matter what due to the hip or whatever? If so, why is Guzman up as well?

I think part of it was a cold weather thing. I remember Lou talking about the cold having an effect on Gregg's hip, so with warmer weather, it might not be as much of an issue.

I think it was because he had some sort of minor knee procedure done this offseason, and once he would get up and start moving around/pitching he would stiffen up once he sat back down. I think he is getting better and it was something that was going to or did go away.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Gregg in to pitch for the CUBS

[coldsteel]

Trivia Fact: "Home Run" Bobby Scales was drafted by the Padres in the 14th round in 1999.
