These late night games
have really taken their toll on me. At least this one shouldn’t be so late.
Carlos Zambrano and Rich Harden. Now that's a pair of Aces.
Out to keep my streak alive tonight...

Posted in last thread late...RE: Marlins Infield Power
Dear god, what’s going on in South Florida? That’s not exactly a hitters’ park, and all four starting infielders have hit around 20-25 HR a piece. Seriously, Cantu and Jacobs?
"This is the kind of thing … that makes you want to see the Chicago Cubs team lose." Marty Brennaman
Cantu had one big season a few years ago in Tampa Bay
other than that he hasn’t been this good

Are they hitting them on the road
or at the Dolph?

Here is an interesting Cedeno stat
Opposing pitchers have thrown a complete game in 93% of the games Cedeno starts. Ok, slight exaggeration but I’m guessing that the over/under on the number of pitches he doesn’t swing at for the game is 3
My pregame pick for player of the game is...
Hank White!
He finally gets to play!

That wasn't sori's fault

You know I said something last night
About the crowd in Arizona acting like they were dead. I was wondering if Wrigley was that much different because I am going to my first Cub’s game at Wrigley for the first game of the Houston series. But, DAMN there is so much a difference just sitting here in the lazy boy listening to the crowd.
Zambrano =
good at hitting.
and now they’re walking Soriano??? Nice.
