6/2 CUBS (Garza) @ Giants (Cain), 6:15pm CDT, FOX

[CubmanPi]

Garza has averaged less than 5IP over his last three starts, his HR/9 this year is 35% higher than his career average, and he's been good for a 0.2 bWAR through two months of the season.

 

The Giants have a guy named Melky. And one named Theriot.

 

Advantage: Cubs.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 2-6 (0.250) vs. San Francisco on 02 June , and it's been 63 years since the CUBS beat the Giants on that day !!!

DeJesus 3rd...

[davell]

Other than Stewart not being in the lineup, I think I kind of like the order, with the way we've been hitting.

[Sammy Sofa]

Why not bat Soriano there while he's hot?

[Proven Veteran]

I'll be at this game. I'm expecting 0-0 through 9.

[Schwarber Fan]

what the hell is up with Stewart?

If the alternative is Mather, I can't disagree too vehemently.

[Sammy Sofa]

what the hell is up with Stewart?

 

His wrist.

[weis21]

Does this mean this is a national blackout. I REALLY hate MLB blackout restrictions!

Only 50+ games until we play the Padres again.

[otis89]

I'm getting the Reds game. What is so damn bad about letting fans watch the team they want to watch? Why can't you just do that?

[Sammy Sofa]

Man, I love the throwback uniforms.

FOX can't help it. They're required to be morons. They employ people like Tim McCarver and Dick Stockton.

Go CUBS !!

[javy knows my name]

These unis are pure sex.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 6-10 when they score in the first inning...... 12-23 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[El Duderino]

The batting helmets kind of kill it.

[haubrich91]

Garza doesn't seem to have the put away pitch yet.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 16-19 when they don't allow any first inning runs.... 2-14 when they do

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Magnetic Curses]

The batting helmets kind of kill it.

 

michael jordan designed the ensemble.

 

but on a similar note, whatever happened to those aerodynamic batting helmets with the speed holes in them?

[javy knows my name]

I want that hat, and I don't wear hats.
