He can't hit and it almost worked. Plus, the Astros have shown that they can throw the ball away... -
Hmmm, dropping the bunt wasn't a bad idea by Bowen.
-
Nice play Teddy!
-
Cesar, where's your range?
-
WOW, the Astros defense is terrible. Asmus too?
-
Quade is too cautious
-

Izzy with the first hit.

I HATE FOX

BOOOOOOOOO! I don't want to be subjected to Bonds' at bats
-
Ted should be pitching a shutout right now. :x

Blame Fox all the way around. They are causing the blackout.

I'm with you

Oswalt's going to give up some runs today.

LOL, I'm with you! :shock:

[daydreaming]A win this afternoon would be great. The Cubs could put pressure on the Brewers again before they play tonight; who knows, 2.5 games out could be possible by the end of the night?[/daydreaming] The Cubs have to take care of their own business today. Is the wind really going to be blowing out hard during the game? If so, Lilly will be challenged. On the other hand, Oswalt has been much more hittable this year... I like the Cubs chances.

I don't agree. Other teams are able to bring up their hot hitting prospects to determine if their MiL numbers can translate on the ML level, there's no reason why we can't be "excited" about the potential of Soto... Blanco's health problems coupled with K. Hill's light hitting make it very possible that Soto would have been recalled even if Barrett were still a Cub (Besides, I think that Geovany's injury, earlier in the year, is what kept him from coming up sooner). Since joining the Padres, Barrett is hitting .289/.289/.356 with 5 RBI and 2 runs scored. In other words, if he were still a Cub, many people would be frustrated with MB because he's continuing to under produce and, as I already mentioned, many people would probably be saying "Soto's hitting .341 at AAA, let's see what he can do!" Now we'll get the opportunity to see if Soto can help offensively and defensively.

Today's lineup as heard on The Score: Soriano, LF Theriot, SS Lee, 1B Ramirez, 3B Floyd, RF DeRosa, 2B Jones, CF Soto, C Zambrano, P The only question is SS. I think I heard Theriot but it went by quickly.

Bye bye Koyie Hill. Not so fast... Cubs.com Another article on cubs.com (the one I posted, which was just from yesterday) said that Dempster is expected back IMMEDIATELY after the All-Star break. So unless something has changed just in the last day Carrie Muskat (who wrote both articles) is now contradicting herself. Yeah, I think the finalization of the Pie demotion, coupled with Soto's recall, changed Dempster's status. It's possible that Ryan is healthy enough to be activated now but the team is buying time for their next move; which may be a trade of Izturis or DFA of K. Hill. Reports today are also speculating that the Cubs are looking to recall Cedeno if/when they unload Izturis. In addition to those moves, a recall of Petrick seems to still be on the radar. Eyre would have to be DL'd or shipped off to make room (unless Dempster actually has a setback).

Yeah, on CSN, Hendry said that Lou may decide to flip flop Lilly and Z. Zambrano's plane was late from South FL... We'll see how this goes.
