9/9 Cubs (Z) @ Pirates (Former Cubs) 11:35am CDT, CSN TV

[Sammy Sofa]

How much would Gregg make if he accepts arbitration?

[Old Style]

Please tell me I am having a nightmare. Kevin Gregg did not really give up a 3-run HR to Ronny Friggin' Cedeno, did he?

How much would Gregg make if he accepts arbitration?

If it's $1, then it's $1 too much.

[illiniguy]

How much would Gregg make if he accepts arbitration?

He's got saves and his era has been so so, probably way too much.

CUBS are 59-4 when they lead at the end of the 8th inning

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS have allowed exactly 1 HR in each of their last 6 games

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Miles, pinch hitting for Gregg, blooped a single to shallow right center field

[jersey cubs fan]

How much would Gregg make if he accepts arbitration?

 

 

He makes 4.2m this year, I'd have to think he gets more than that, close to 5 maybe. I think the Cubs would have to offer at least about 3.8

[laurens]

Miles... not... out?!

Side bet, anyone think we will gain a game on the Cardinals again this year?
