Chicago Cubs at Houston Astros, May 21, 2008 7:05 PM CDT
Afternoon notes:
- Barry Rozner says that not only will the Cubs win the NL Central, they ought to win by at least 10 games.
- Bruce Miles talks stats with Ryan Theriot, and reminds us:
Theriot made some changes to his swing over the winter and came to spring training in good shape, proving that perhaps you can work and "grit" your way to better numbers.
- Sean Gallagher went on the Kerry Wood diet over the winter and lost 30 pounds. If you're interested in the company that provides Wood, Gallagher and others with the diet plan and meals, Sunfare, here's their website, although as of now they only operate in the Phoenix and Los Angeles areas. (It ain't cheap, either.)
- For the Astros fan point of view, check out the SBN Astros site The Crawfish Boxes. (You see lineups posted there because they wait longer to post their game threads, only an hour before game time. I don't think you guys want to wait that long. Right?)

Shawn Chacon has set an unusual record this year: his first nine starts all ended with a no-decision. He's actually pitched fairly well in most of them, including 8 shutout innings against the Phillies on April 15. The Astros are 4-5 in Chacon's starts. He is 1-3, 8.31 in 5 career starts vs. the Cubs, and Aramis Ramirez eats him for breakfast, lunch and dinner (.588/.600/1.706, yes, that's one-point-seven-zero-six, 10-for-17, 4 doubles, 5 HR, 13 RBI).
Sean Gallagher threw OK in his first start, better in his next one, and now is the time for him to continue what appears to be a developing consistency. He pitched one scoreless inning in relief against Houston last August 8, and the only hit he has allowed to a current member of the Astros is a single to Kaz Matsui, last year when Matsui was with the Rockies.
Today's game is on cable in Chicago and Houston and at the MLB.com Mediacenter.

Just checked into my hotel in Houston
Here on business tomorrow – flew in early to see the game. Got dugout box seats – row 38 just to the 1st base side behind the plate. Leaving for the park in about an hour…..I am so excited!! First MLB game this year.
Look for me – green Cubs hat, deep blue Fukadome shirt….dark headed chick grinning ear to ear. That’ll be me! Is the game even televised??

Chacon and Gallagher
With these two on the hill one and the wacky field dimensions, I am going to agree with you. I know Chacon has been throwing well, but I have a feeling Dome gets hot tonight, while DLee (if he plays) and ARam keep hitting.

I'm worried
about Gallagher tonight. I don’t have alot of confidence of him doing well against this tough Astros line-up in that park. If he’s gonna do well he needs to pitch better then he did in his first two starts. So I think if were gonna win tonight, were gonna have to bomb Chacon, but for the most part he has pitched well this year. Thats why I thought yesturday was the game we needed to win to take the series. To bad once again we couldn’t hit Chris Sampson. I hope I’m wrong about Gallagher tonight and hope the Cubs can pull this one out.

If Sledgehammer can get through Tejada, Berkman, Lee, Blum and Punter Hence (yes, that’s what I’m calling him from now on) a few times with minimal damage, it’ll be another step forward—and a pretty big one at that.

Well, we didn’t figure on his being in the starting rotation. Maybe, he can solidify a permanent spot in the rotation with a good performance tonight.

by memphiscub on May 21, 2008 4:40 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
I hope he does well
but in his last start the Pirates they were hitting the ball hard but right to Cubs fielders. If he does that tonight against these hitters in this park were in trouble. His stuff was probably better in his first start, but he only had it for 4 innings really. He needs to have that kinda stuff tonight, but keep it going for 5-6 innings if he’s gonna have a chance.
by cubsfan25 on May 21, 2008 4:43 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
In his first start
he was pretty clearly gassed by the 5th. He had pitched on 3 days rest and had been in the BP since being called up.

So, after 46 games played, which NLC team behind worries you the most?
I agree I don’t think HOU can keep it up but, past that, I think I have my eye more on STL at this point than MIL.

I seriously worry about them acquiring a decent starting pitcher before the deadline...
we may have to get into a bidding war to keep that from happening. Sort of a Yankee like maneuver to insure your opponent can’t improve for the stretch run.

by santoswoodenlegs on May 21, 2008 5:20 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
The only thing that doesnt worry me so much about them getting one solid pitcher is he can only help them win ever 5 days, and even then, he won’t get them all.

And look below.
Ned Yost is holding them back. I’m guessing he gets fired soon.

Brewers and Cards...
Brewers because of their offense and the possibility that they get a pitcher or two at the deadline. Cardinals because I can’t completely write off the possibility that Carpenter and Mulder come back later in the season.
Realistically, we should win the division. But those are the teams I’d worry about most.

I was wondering
how Lou was going to justify sitting a player (Lee) who was heating up vs. one that was cooling off (Soriano). Clearly he decided not to justify that move.
I am scared too, but I guess if Hoffpauer is going to play the outfield, might as well stick him in the smallest left field in the national league

by gwood on May 21, 2008 5:31 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Interesting lineup
Dome finally in the right place, in front of Lee, let’s see what it produces. If Carlos Lee can play left in this park, then the Hoff can as well.
Chacon walks a lot of guys, so the boys should be patient, and he’ll get himself in trouble.
Soriano should hit 5th. Period.
by Canadian Cubs Fan on May 21, 2008 5:32 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
That's an interesting statement.
The difference, though, is that Carlos Lee can outhit his ineptness in the field.

I assume you're referring to popups on the infield?
Depends on who is playing second…if Ronny or Fonty is in…then they’ll probably tell him to let them take anything on the right side, if DeRo is manning 2nd….well, we’ll see.
and he’s not in the lineup for defense anyways,

I think Hoff hitting above Edmonds
suggests Lou isn’t liking what he sees out of Jimmy. (Or maybe he’s giving Micah the chance to prove he deserves Fontenot’s roster spot when Ward comes back.)

by Al on May 21, 2008 7:11 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Ideally, we'd have two
but honestly, Fontenot’s below average with the glove and his bat comes in fits and starts – actually over the past two seasons it’s looked more like fit and start and only one hot streak is all he’s good for. We should have hung on to Cintron. But since we didn’t, I’d just as soon put Soriano at 2B than Fontenot. At least with Hoffpauir we’d get another bat on the bench – a real LH bat.
by DGU on May 21, 2008 7:15 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
But then you're really stuck for defense.
Because Soriano is a below average 2B and Hoffpauir and Ward are below average OF.

SBN team is watching the slowness unfold. I think it’s a case of games
ramping up and a bit of server/cache hangover from the downtime this
morning.The good thing is, increased traffic populates the cache faster, which
in turn should speed things back up eventually.

if you're serious, stop by Waveland & Kenmore after the game
and look around for a hefty lefty – I’m sporting a Berkman physique these days… ;-) If it’s not obvious, just ask around for “Ken” or “Kenny”.
And just for the record… No, I’m not the guy that has the basket of balls out there after every game. That’s another ballhawk. He does his thing, I do my thing.
