Cubs go for the day/night sweep. Blanco gets the start behind home plate. Otherwise, it's the same group with Theriot moving up to the 2-hole and Fukudome moving down to seventh.

Lots of the same faces in the Braves' order as well. Slumping Jeff Francoeur gets a start and the chance to see what it's like to slump out of the eighth spot.

Harden is starting the nightcap after telling Piniella he prefers to work at night.

Oh, my God—we traded for a vampire!

anyone who seriously wants the cubs to retaliate at chipper....crazy idea. don't get involved. this isn't a team you'll see again this year, not a division rival, and likely not a contender for a few years. don't need more injuries or suspensions or ejections. just let cox be a scumbag and let it be. settle down, shut them down the next two games and we'll see their 4th place asses in 2009. btw, glad lilly is pitching down there with those enormous power alleys. should be good for him tomorrow.

At the bottom of all the comments, would it be possible to add a "back to top" button or perhaps a button that links back to the home page?

We're sneaking up on playing .500 on the road. That would give me a bit more confidence in the team headed into the playoffs. The Brewers have gone 8-2 over their last 10 games... but haven't made up any ground. That's got to be frustrating.

Any thoughts of Cubs being better off winning wild card and playing Phillies, rather than AZ (Webb, Harren, Unbeaten Randy Johnson)?

    Folks, I've known Richard Lovelady since he was an 18 yr old Freshman at East Ga State College in Swainsboro, Ga.

    I was the WBB Coach at EGSC and Richard was their prize recruit from outside of Hinesville, Ga.

    My roommate was the Pitching Coach there.

    Richard showed up a skinny, loose lipped, 83mph Lefty. Pretty good basketball player actually. 

    My roommate became the head coach.

    Richard came back from a minor injury for his Sophmore year a more serious man. He hit 90mph and started mowing GA JUCO hitters down. It was really fun to watch.

    He was the first D1 signee for EGSC baseball (school had only had athletics for five yrs at that point). He went to Kennesaw St and became their closer. One yr later, he hit 100mph and KC drafted him in the 10th Rd. 

    He lost the high velo with a surgery a while back.

    It's so cool to see him in MLB. And now he's a Cub!! It's crazy to realize I actually "know" a Cub.

    He's a legit good guy.

    Easy to root for!!!

    Tim. Thanks for remembering Lee Elia Day. It will always be one of the most epic rants in all sports.  It took about 3 seconds to recognize him from your picture but I  did get it right. 

    Now that Les Grobstein is no longer with us, that might contribute to this grand piece of Cubbery fading.

    Just like fine wine, it should be savored...unedited. 40 years, wow.

    Does he have any options left, Phil?
