Fontenot must really be in Lou's doghouse. Baker two games in a row, both vs RHP.

That's the best 3-6 in baseball if all those guys are hitting close to their potential

I was just gonna type this before I saw your post. Wow. I would've thought Font would be getting the nightcap.

Actually, three games in a row vs RHP for Baker counting yesterday's game against Thompson. I know Fontenot hasn't been very good, but still.

if you throw in a healthy, productive geo (aka the one from 2008) somewhere in there, and also take account of the fact that theriot is playing great right now, it really will make you hate your life. oh what could have been

[Irrelevant Dude]

I should probably get ready to duck the barrage of tomatoes, but why start Fuld instead of giving Reed Johnson some playing time?

[Keener98]

Glad to see Lou not sit Soriano tonight. Hes showing some signs of life, and i really wish Lou would bat Bradley 2nd. Hes taking a crazy amount of walks right now. Hell with Theriot hitting pretty well lately, Id love a Theriot,Bradley, Lee, ARam, Soriano 1-5. Oh well we got alot of "grit" and "Spark" in the lineup tonight lets hope it gets us a W.

Because Reed sucks vs Rh pitching?

Yeah, that's what I was thinking.

 

Theriot

Bradley

Lee

ARam

Soriano

Fukudome

Baker

Hill

 

 

Although I don't want to give up on kfuk being the answer in the leadoff spot. He has provided a nice SPARK there, too.

[Illini Iceman]

Lou said after the game Lee and ARam WILL BE in the lineup tonight, but wouldnt reveal the rest of the lineup. And pretty cool thing of Z to do, he choose the day game so Wells could pitch on ESPN in front of a national audience. Z said he wanted everybody else to see how good he is.

 

Wow, that's an incredibly nice thing to do. Kudos to Z.

 

Of course the fact that he got to match up with Lohse instead of possibly being against Wainwright who is more likely to shut down the Cubs offense and hang Z with a tough luck loss probably didn't seem too bad either. But maybe I am just being cynical....

Yea when Fuku is in the lineup I like him leading off and Id put Theriot 6th or 7th.

Theriot(Soto here when hes back and Theriot behind him)

Baker/Font

[A-Cal]

wainwright is only a few minutes away from exposing The Spark

 

for shame

[Outshined_One]

God bless the mute button.

[BCVM22]

The team that has scored first is 3-0 so far this series. Just putting that out there.

[Outshined_One]

I love how Colby Rasmus' mustache makes him look like he's still in high school. Seriously, the thing looks like it was drawn on with a pencil.

[Outshined_One]

Keyhole zone so far. Yikes.

[Keener98]

Not a good way to start the damn game Randy

[CyHawk_Cub]

That's iit...put guys on before Pujols..

[BCVM22]

Already trial by fire for Wells. Hope he comes out okay.

[Keener98]

Phew

[Cubs Fan In NY]

Beautiful!! :D

[CyHawk_Cub]

Great pitch Randy...thank you Albert

[Careless]

Of course he gets Pujols to hit an easy DP ball. That was just where he wanted the Cards
