WIth the series and first place on the line, both teams have pitchers with a little extra chip on their shoulders. Ex-Cub Todd Wellemeyer goes for the Cards and ex-Cardinals pitcher Jason Marquis goes for the Cubs. A chip that Marquis carried around particularly well last year when he started four times versus the Redbirds with a 3-1 record and a 3.60 ERA.

For those of you that love the site FireJoeMorgan.com as much as I do, the opening analysis of the Cubs offense was pure joy -- the Cubs are not "consistent" enough....this after Soriano strikes out, to reinforce his point..nice sample size Joe!

jeffy beat me to it....theriot needs to stop running, especially considering how good the guys behind him have been this year. that was a great throw by yadi, but still, when catchers fall down you better make it.

not been playing well against the class of our division. maybe we weren't that good afterall. soriano is completely lost at the plate. He is constantly behind and has no eye. You could pitch it to the dug out and I think he would swing.

marquis does not impress me at all so we have three real starters z, lilly and dumpster i thnk we are fortunate that we kept are pitching depth we are gonna need it i thought gallagher did a good job tonite.

    I think if you had ranked players by how much the team could ill afford to have them miss significant time, Steele would be right at the top of the list.

    steele MRI on friday.  counsell expects an IL stint.

    no current plans for his rotation replacement.

    I would say also in the bright side column is Busch looked pretty good overall at the plate. Alzolay…man, that hurts but most of the time he’s not giving up a homer to that guy. To me the worst was almonte hanging that pitch to Garcia. He hung another one to the next hitter too and got away with it on an 0-1.

    amaya blocked like 6-8 of smyly's pitches in the dirt very cleanly...not even an exaggeration, smyly threw a ton of pitches bouncing in tonight.

    neris looking like his old self was a relief (no pun), too.

    In looking for bright spots the defense was outstanding tonight. The “stars” are going to need to shine quite a bit brighter than they did tonight offensively though for this to be a successful season.

    Good baseball game. Hopefully Steele is pitching again in April (but I’m not counting on it). 

  • crunch (view)

    boo.

    smyly to face the 2/3/4 hitters with a man on 2nd in extras.

    this doesn't seem like a 8 million dollar managerial decision.

  • crunch (view)

    i 100% agree with you, but i dunno how jed wants to run things.  the default is delay.  i would choose brown.

    like hellfrozeover says, could be smyly since he's technically fresh and stretched.

    anyway, on a pure talent basis....brown is the best option.

    Use pitchers when you believe they're good. Don't plan their clock.

    I'm sorry. I'm simply anti-clock/contract management. Play guys when they show real MLB potential talent.

    If Brown hadn't been hurt with the Lat Strain he would've gotten the call, and not Wick.

    Give him a chance. 

    But Wesneski probably gets it
