7/28 Astros (Oswalt) @ Cubs (Dempster) 7:05 WGN

If Soriano gets plunked I bet the pitcher gets tossed because it'd be the most obvious thing ever.

 

Yeah I don't see the Astros wasting Oswalt early. Most likely scenario is if he leads off an inning like the 7th or 8th and one of the teams has a sizable lead IMO. They still have two more days after today to get him if it's a tight game tonight.

dumb question: is there a roster move that has to be made before the game to make room for Demp? If so, who's going down??

 

Hopefully Shark, but probably Berg

It's Berg.

 

Who pitches after Dempster leaves after 5?

He'll get brushed back and deserve it. We'll see how Oswalt handles it, I love his moxie as he's a bit of a punk so he might drill him.

Fred, seriously, I love you. Thanks for taking the time out of your days to provide us with the stats.

This sucks so far.

[Cubs Fan In NY]

Damn, this isn't looking good so far :?

[BCVM22]

Keppinger should not be allowed on base, by any means. Bad.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

The word you are looking for is "ballgame."

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Had him all the way.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Dempster is getting hit hard tonight. This might not end well.

[Old Style]

Way to recover and limit the damage, Demp.

 

:good:

[BCVM22]

Let's attribute that inning to return jitters and hope Demp calms down.
