Headline- Prior plays catch at the Friendly Confines http://chicago.cubs.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20070921&content_id=2222354&vkey=news_chc&fext=.jsp&c_id=chc I am boggled that Prior is still one of the headlines on cubs.com even though he has not pitched all year and we are in the middle of a pennant race.
He has been very well rested so It wont hurt him, but the only reason I can justify this decision is if Marmol was made unavailable for this game, and Lou has lost his confidence in Dempster.
Meh. You had to expect they were going to sweep the Astros with who they're putting out on the field these days. The real test is this weekend against the Braves. watch atlanta call up a bunch of guys from rookie ball The rest of the teams we play may do this too with their lineup. It is not like they have anything left to play for.
