The Final "Cubs On Fox" For 2009: Cubs vs. Cardinals Preview, Saturday 9/19, 3:10 CT
The Cubs game is the main Fox-TV game this afternoon; the others are Twins/Tigers and Giants/Dodgers. The Twins/Tigers game will be seen in Minnesota, Michigan, Toledo (Detroit's Triple-A team is there), and, bizarrely, New York City, Boston and other parts of New England. The Giants/Dodgers game goes to most markets from the Rocky Mountains on West (except for Montana, which is getting the Twins). So if you're anywhere but those areas, you'll see the Cubs and Cardinals.
However, according to Fox's website, the Cubs will be playing the Rams today.
Bruce Miles has more on Milton Bradley (sorry, had to do this, Milton makes news even when he's not playing):
Milton Bradley took BP, but Lou says he day to day. Methinks those days to days are numbered in Chicago, though. I can't see this going on past this year. The Cubs probably won't call up prospect Tyler Colvin from Class AA Tennessee unless Bradley can't play anymore this year. It would be interesting to see him, though.
And there's one other game you might want to pay attention to tonight -- on the South Side of Chicago. Jake Peavy will make his White Sox debut against the Royals. Just sayin'.

Chris Carpenter and Ryan Dempster matched up on May 20 in St. Louis; the Cardinals won 2-1 in one of the games in The Series In Which The Cubs Refused To Score (two runs in three games). Carpenter also beat the Cubs at Wrigley Field on July 10. He's 9-3, 3.02 lifetime against the Cubs. Derrek Lee likes to hit against him: 14-for-42 (.333), 2 doubles, a HR.
Ryan Dempster, in addition to the loss above, has faced the Cardinals two other times this season with a 4.26 overall ERA and a pair of no-decisions. Since August 1, Dempster has been nearly as good as he was all last year, posting a 2.98 ERA in nine starts, though going only 5-4. He has walked only 16 in 60.1 innings in that time period. Ryan Ludwick is 8-for 16 vs. Demp and Skip Schumaker has hit .407 against him (11-for-27).
See above for today's TV information. For other games today see the MLB.com Mediacenter.

I’m in Twins territory, but for some reason, MLB thinks my computer’s in Western Oregon. Looks like I’m screwed either way.

learning to play LF a spot over a guy you really need to see play more games ( Fox).
Are there any Lou supporters out there who can explain this. Does he need a few games to vest his insurance or
something ?

Maybe
they want to trade Fox in the offseason and are afraid he will lower his value in the last two weeks? I don’t agree with that but it’s the only thing I can think of.

Cause if he hits anymore home runs it might be a problem.
I realize you are grasping at straws but anyone really believe Hendry tells Lou not to play Fox much for the last two weeks so Cubs can keep his trade value high ?

Why does Lou put up with this asshole?
Park him on the bench for a week. If he’s so hurt, let him sit. Why is he rewarded with playing time?
He sucks anyways. 40 RBI’s………To all the people wondering about Hendry controling the Fox situation, I am with you. its going to look bad if Fox has better stats than your big free agent signing. And if they are doing that and hurting a player for their own reasons they should be fired. I want to see what kind of a backbone Ricketts has when he finally takes over this sorry team.

I read Lou's postgame remarks...
and have come to this conclusion: I am hopping on the “Fire Lou” bandwagon if I hear him say “What are you going to do?” just one more time. Should be on that bandwagon in about 3 hours.
I just can’t fathom how a manager can repeatedly blather on about not knowing what to do. Like managing a baseball game is beyond any one person’s capabilities. Like errors and defensive incompetence are unavoidable. Like sending Aaron Miles in to pinch hit and watching him pop out to SS is a huge suprise. Like trying to have Scales learn how to play outfield on the fly and then possibly cost the team an extra base was completely unpredictable. Like putting players in positions to succeed is poppycock.
Whew. Failed to breathe for about 40 seconds there.
