4/10 Cobs (Z) vs. Reds (Harang) 12:10 CST WGNTV

[erik316wttn]

Today, our 1-3 Cobs take on our oldest rival, the Cincinnati Reds (or Sulley's 2nd favorite team. Dirty Commie)

 

Anyway, the Cubs send this guy, who looks to improve on his horrendous Opening Day start

0-1, 54.00 ERA, 6.00 WHIP

 

He is opposed by one of the goofiest looking MF'ers in the game today, Aaron Harang

0-1, 5.40 ERA, 1.40 WHIP

 

Harang used to be an ace, but he's been Dustyed

 

And, for no reason, here's a picture of a Gorilla giving the finger

Win, idiots. At least Marshall should be available out of the pen. His arm is going to fall off at the end of the year, I think.

[Schwarber Fan]

Harang hasn't been good in years.

 

Loss

[RedFlash]

Carlos Silva's twin is going tomorrow? Hope his performance is as good as Silva's.

[bhogg]

The last two games the Cubs have made pitchers work and have ran up pitch counts. It's time to keep doing that and for that to pay off.

Probably not, so long as Lou is making the lineup each day.

[A New Era]

Our "Stopper". . wait Wells isn't pitching. [expletive].

[ctcf]

We're all gonna die.

[Cubswin11]

Let's go you Schmuck's (I mean Cubs) get a W

[C.C.]

Z goes 4 strong giving up only 5 runs. Cubs lose 6-4.

 

Year 1 my ass.

[Derwood]

I can't wait to see how Lou will manage to bench Ramirez, Lee and Fontenot today

[Rusch33]

Haven't seen a Cubs lineup yet, but the Reds Lineup is out..

 

Stubbs 8

Cabrera 6

Votto 3

Phillips 4

Bruce 9

Francisco 5

Dickerson 7

Hanigan 2

Harang 1

[Derwood]

Cubs lineups usually aren't out until an hourish before gametime

How the hell are we only 2 games out of first?

[CubColtPacer]

Opening Day lineup once again for the Cubs:

 

Theriot

Fukudome

Lee

Ramirez

Byrd

Soriano

Fontenot

Soto

Zambrano

[OleMissCub]

Soto starting? gosh, I hate it when our backup catcher starts

[MWV]

If we win these next two, we'll have put together a .500 road trip to start the season. Let's do it.

When you've got a bullpen that can't throw strikes that'll never happen.

[hawkcub]

To bad the 8th inning didn't exist. We would be 3-1 if that were the case. :-))

[GlassCow]

I'm going to the home opener on Monday. I'd really prefer to see the team have at least 2 and preferably 3 wins when that happens. Our 'ace' needs pitch today for that to happen though.

[MWV]

Bullpen:

ERA  WHIP K/BB HR/9
7.90 1.61 1.4 1.32

 

Starters:

Nice hack, Theriot.
