Fontenot must really be in Lou's doghouse. Baker two games in a row, both vs RHP. That's the best 3-6 in baseball if all those guys are hitting close to their potential
Don't really know what to expect out of Hart, he has been terrible out of the bullpen not only in the majors but also in the minors, but he has been pretty good as a starter in the minors (maybe he just feels more comfortable there) so hopefully he can at least give us 5 and keep us in the game.
If he's going to be out for a month+ we almost have to make a move either sign/call up a lefty (if there are any in the system) and make Marshall a starter because Hart/Shark aren't going to have success being ML starters, but Lou/Hendry seem set on keeping Marshall in the bullpen.
Marshall should start (best braves hitters are LH and Chipper is a SH). But Lou will probably go with Hart or Shark, which probably won't end well whichever one pitches.
Because that story broke like 3 weeks ago, this is the first game the Cubs are on ESPN since then though I believe. Len and Bob talked about it when is was relevant.
What did they say? I'm watching CSN... ESPN sucks. They just showed the roster moves the Cubs made today Guzman, Ramirez, Johnson for Fuld, Patton and Hart. They were saying how he would be back sometime this summer and went 4-8 last week.
Make it 10 and somehow Cueto will pitch through 6 innings tonight Cueto left the game with with 2 outs in the first. His ERA took a jump of almost 3/4 of a run. Alright so he will be available out of the bullpen tomorrow to come in for long relief.
