Wow. Fox and Hoffpauir in the outfield. Looks like Fukudome will be covering lots of ground tonight.

 

Hopefully Demp has the strikeout working tonight. I like resting Bradley tonight,and Id have him DH tomorrow as well. Give him 2 days off from the field during this stretch could be a good thing.

Looks like there's a small storm going through Atlanta now, but it shouldn't last all that long. I don't see there being any delay.

That lineup is....meh. Okay I suppose. Glad to see miles excluded, at least. Fox playing the outfield would/could/will be a nightmare however.

[Gingerballs Lives]

Any Cubs lineup that doesn't include Aaron Miles is ok with me.

Any Cubs lineup that doesn't include Aaron Miles is ok with me.

You clearly forget the days of Lenny Harris, Jose Macias, Neifi Perez, Damien Jackson, Rey Ordonez, and the like.

Yeah but in terms of the last few teams we have had, Miles definitely deserves to be close to that list. Especially for the amount he's being paid.

 

All things considered, I like that lineup.

I realize that Soriano and Bradley need a day off... it just seems like an odd time to do so, when Soriano has killed the ball in Turner Field and Bradley has a 10-game streak. I'm not a fan of Soriano anyway, though, so I'm glad to see him on the bench :grin:

I can understand being glad to see him on the bench due to a really prolonged slump as he's been in for some time, but to be happy in general for him to be on the bench simply because one "doesn't like him" is nuts.

You're correct. It's not that I know him personally and we don't like each other... it's that I'm just not a fan of him as a baseball player, so I really don't mind seeing Hoffpauir out there instead, especially during a slump.

[DiamondMind]

Really enjoying the style of the lineup. Hopefully the change of pace can keep the offense hot against a very good Vasquez tonight.

 

Let's do it!

[PrimeTime]

Didnt we hit Vasquez pretty good when he was on the White Sox? Or I might be thinking of one of thier other starters

[Fred Hornkohl]

We tagged him for a .954 team OPS last year.

 

Refer to Pg 1, worthless stats of the day for Monday.

[Derwood]

anyone else have the Braves broadcast on both EI feeds?

 

EDIT: Nevermind, they have the home team on the visitors feed and vice versa
