8/10 Dunn and Mercker's Reds (Milton) @ Cubs (Hill) 1:20 CSN

[rocket]

go dunn and mercker!

[Brian]

I'll watch to see Hill.

[otis89]

Yay! We're gonna lose again! Losing is so freaking awesome! Let's do it the rest of the season!

[OldHappyCubFan]

I predit 4 home runs for the Reds.

 

1 Dunn, 2 griffey, and 1 for valentine.

[Flames24Rulz]

go Dunn, hope he hits 3 homers. Too bad hes not in Cubbie blue.

[Laura]

GO RICH HILL!

 

SHOCK AND AMAZE US!

[sweetpeteman]

my prediction: The Cubs hit 8 homers, all solo shots, and lose 12-8... after Dunn hits 3 grandslams.

[rickrolled]

There will be a bench-clearing brawl in this game.

 

At least I hope so. otherwise I wont watch

[Brian]

maybe Dunn will sit in favor of Pena, since it's a lefty on the mound

[rabidawg900]

my prediction: The Cubs hit 8 homers, all solo shots, and lose 12-8... after Dunn hits 3 grandslams.

 

Excellent prediction. :lol:

[Chris]

Sorry to disappoint some of you but the Cubs are gonna win

[mhuber92211]

Sorry to disappoint some of you but the Cubs are gonna win

 

This is without a doubt. 7strong from Hill 7-4 Cubbies.

[Roast]

Ugh. I used to be positive and happy. But Dusty Baker peed in my blue kool aid.

[ctcf]

This is fun!

[UMFan83]

Well now that we lucked ourselves through Prior and Z, lets get to the fun part of the rotation and continue the losing!!!!

[Marco4]

Cubs to lost 3-2. Two Rich Hill solo shots give Cubs lead until 8th whereupon various members of bullpen walk in two runs and then Adam Dunn hits go-ahead and eventual winning homer in 9th.

 

:roll:

Go CUBS !!

Eric Milton gives up a million home runs a game, which means the Cubs will hit 0.

1. Macias - 3B

2. Perez - 2B

3. Lee - 1B

4. Blanco - C

5. Hollandsworthless - LF

6. Hendry - RF

Nope. "The 3 spot, that's my dude Lee's spot man. Ain't no one gonna knock him out."

The Score said on their update that Lawton isn't playing today and that ....

 

... Matt Murton is leading off.

 

And don't ask if I'm serious, because I wouldn't post it otherwise.

Good for Dusty. That probably means a lineup like:

 

Murton

Walker

Lee

Ramirez

Burnitz

Nomar

Patterson

Barrett
