Probably still tired, or Lou's having faith in Blanco

"Yes it's true. Everyone knows that I've pitched. I make sure of that. I have nine different pitches, all of which are awesome. I have a 0.00 ERA, got one out, throwing all knuckleballs. I don't remember who I faced -- some dude from Ole Miss." - Ryan Theriot

Its Blanco's Birthday

Why under-cut a guy on his birthday? AND… the Cubs only have 1 catcher on the bench, so if Soto goes in and gets hurt, the Cubs are screwed.

I bet it is hard for any pitcher to overcome

pitching against their former team in a high stress situation, let alone to be a pitcher that didn’t want to leave his former team. That would suck all around.

Hot smash to Lee at first, knocked it down and it began squirting away from him towards second base

he grabs it, twists to throw across his body back to first to Shark covering – Howard lumbers down the line and appeared to beat the throw.

I’m no Theriot FAN, but I don’t HATE the guy either. We knew coming into the season that we didn’t have the best shortstop in the league. The guy is batting over .310, and none of us expected him to do that well. Is he a great shortstop? Heck no. But he’s better than what I expected. Every team has weak links.
