05/05 Cubs (Volstad) v. Dodgers (Capuano) 12:05 CSN

[Vanilla Ice]

Pitching seems about even. Slight edge to the Dodgers. Edited May 4, 2012 by Vanilla Ice

@JordanBernfield #Cubs Sveum says Garza will pitch Sunday now. Under the weather. Volstad tomorrow.

pwned

[Smack]

Capuano has pitched well when I've seen him this year, including up here in Milwaukee.

[SouthSideRyan]

We have the pitching advantage.

 

Mod edit: Not so much now that Garza was pushed back.

 

I disagree.

[Schwarber Fan]

Am I missing something or wasn't it Volstad's day anyway?

Go CUBS !!

 

One of these three names is not like the other two.

 

Poor Demp. In his four starts, he has allowed five runs, the Cubs have scored seven runs and the bullpen has allowed eight runs.

[Soul]

Greetings one and all from beautiful Tallulah, LA !!!

 

On your way to Birmingham, or Dallas?

[davell]

Travis Wood is at Wrigley, in case. Garza can't go tomorrow.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Assuming Garza truely is under the weather and not injured, if Wood pitches tomorrow, someone is going to have to develope an "injury" in the next 24 hours. My vote goes to Reed Johnson.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Inning of Doom watch.

 

I'm guessing 6th?

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Hahahaha.

 

The good lord wants the Cubs to win!

[El Duderino]

hahahahahaha

[Careless]

Lol

[Careless]

I love it, the crowd going semi-nuts on every pop up.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

The outfield is playing insanely deep for LaHair.

[Guest]

First inning runs would be wonderful.

 

Make it happen, Soriano.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Soriano hits a ball that shows why that guy who had his toddler sitting on the wall down the first baseline yesterday was an idiot.

[Schwarber Fan]

lol @ this ump already

 

what a joke!

[Guest]

Guess it's up to Kyle's boy to come through.
