Pena hitting eighth, and Byrd hits third. That's....interesting.

[Prizefight]

10 mil for your 8th hitter. Mercy

Against a left-hander? Not that strange.

 

Probably the most interesting thing is the Cubs are not starting Reed Johnson today, who has been the Cubs best hitter through limited at-bats and has hit Lilly very well in even more limited at-bats. Maybe Quade wanted to keep Pena in there to show his faith in him though after that closed door meeting a few days ago.

[PrimeTime]

Eithier was just scratched from their lineup..So that helps somewhat

Yeah, I totally overlooked that. Go Cubs.

Day game on the hottest day of the year in LA. The ball should be flying out, especially if Ted Lilly is serving them up like he has been known to in the past.

when the Cub shouldn't try for 2, they get thrown out.

Pena again. A no-doubter.

[Schwarber Fan]

Pena's one of the streakiest power hitters in the game... prepare for a huge week Edited May 4, 2011 by Rondon Fan

[CubmanPi]

Pena just wanted to justify my re-post of the Lilly gif. (Assuming it showed up)

[CubColtPacer]

Pena has increased his OPS by 110 points in the last 2 days.
