Winning streaks are nice, but just focus on winning series, fools.

CUBS have not allowed a HR in their last 6 games. Last time they went 7 games.......

Surprised to see Lou going with Colvin again. Also surprised not to see Nady in the lineup.

Wouldn't mind seeing Tracy in there for Lee.

Wouldn't mind seeing Nady in there for Lee.

I don't know. Tracy needs at bats too. Plus Nady hasn't hit a ball solid in two weeks is seems like.

Tracy is hitting .154 with a .214 OBP, .231 SLG, and .445 OPS. He does not need at bats. He needs to be released.

Keener98 · April 28, 2010

Wouldn't mind seeing Nady in there for Lee.
Seconded

That means hes still had more solid hits than Tracy all year.

MWV · April 28, 2010

Wind appears to be blowing out to LF. I think we win this one.

Seconded

Which is exactly why Nady needs to play. Lee needs a day off and Nady is not going to break out of his slump without getting any AB's. Nady has a history of being a solid hitter, while Tracy doesn't.

Garwilly · April 28, 2010

Do chats exist these days?

April 28, 2010

Good thing Soto is sitting. He must be thoroughly exhausted playing so many games in a row.

Wouldn't mind seeing Nady in there for Lee.
Seconded
I don't know. Tracy needs at bats too. Plus Nady hasn't hit a ball solid in two weeks is seems like.

Tracy is hitting .154 with a .214 OBP, .231 SLG, and .445 OPS. He does not need at bats. He needs to be released.

He's had 13 at bats.

Yeah. Kind of hard to have good timing at the plate with all those splinters in your butt.

I suppose it would be Cub-esque to lose a series to a horrible team missing one of the two players on the entire roster who doesn't suck

if ARam can hit one of those deep fly balls he hit the last two days, he'll probably have himself a home run today.
