Why the hell is Barrtt 8 and Macias 7?

[otis89]

Why the hell is Barrtt 8 and Macias 7?

 

Because Dusty is an idiot. That was a stupid question.

[AAApittsburgh]

Catchers are supposed to hit 8th, dude.

Unless there's a rookie in the lineup, dude. (minus today)

[frostwyrm]

Vazquez has had an interesting month. He's been either great or terrible in all his games.

[Coach C]

Not sure if that origional line-up was right, but Blanco is playing today.

[Mark_R]

I'm pissed at these conflicting lineups. one said Blanco, the other Barrett and now I've got Barrett playing in fantasy ball today.

[sethuel1]

DOH. I was planning on spot starting this one. But I got into a conversation with a GIRL and forgot about it. See what females do to me

 

:x

 

Oh, and cubs suck.

 

??? Roast talked to a girl?

 

:pimp:

 

AWWWWW--thats nice.

 

be careful now, Raost. dont go and get yourself any youngins....

Are you insinuating that Roast was "talking" to a girl?

[cubsfaninfla]

Anyone notice that Brenly seems to be taking little jabs at Dusty.

 

Murton gets an UNUSUAL start in left.

[Flames24Rulz]

not a good start.

[cubsfaninfla]

This looks like one of Prior's bad days. :(

[XZero771679666304]

Not a good start. With the wind whipping straight in, I think we're going to have a hard time scoring runs.

[Lefty]

This is some anemic lineup we're trotting out there.

[CuseCubFan69]

He stayed on top of that high pitch quite well.

[Mark Priors Calves]

Matt Murton is making his first start in left field against a right-hander today.

We're not certain playing Jody Gerut against Javier Vazquez wouldn't make more sense, but at this point, any move that takes Todd Hollandsworth out of the lineup gets the thumbs up. Jul. 29 - 1:47 pm et

 

I've become a big fan of the guy at rotoworld who writes the little blurbs about the Cubs.

[Flames24Rulz]

good pitch by Prior to get the popup.

Yeah, he is pretty funny sometimes.

Me too. He sounds like the majority of Cubs fans. In fact, he's probably a better voice of the Cubs than Propaganda Woman Carrie Muskat.

I'd be curious to know how many times Holla has played himself out of a starter's job in his career.

[Coach C]

Sweet. Stranded him at 2nd.

[Omar]

Inning over! Prior escapes w/o damage. C'mon Cubs offense!

[Flames24Rulz]

nice 3 pitch K for Prior to end the inning. Made Tracy, Gonzo and Glaus look pretty bad :D

[BleedCubbieBlue81]

Decent inning, I'll take it

[ManCrushOnNomar]

Aramis ok? Or is this part of his "day-to-day" status?

[mhuber92211]

good hustle by Neifi there actually made it close. I think Lee will break out today.
