First place never felt so good.

anybody with the 720 dialed in... please share Santo's whinings. I love to hear that guy wallow in his patheticness.

 

nice kick in the gut before leaving for the 11 game / 10 day roadie

 

LOVE IT!

We can post magic numbers again! For real!

 

And I can bear to look at the standings again. I haven't been, for almost 3 weeks. (I mean, I didn't really have to because I knew what was there, but I just couldn't. Oh, you know what I mean.)

A .500 homestand was NOT what the Cubbies needed....now nice!

Feels good to be in first place again.

The pitching matchups this weekend:

 

Friday: Bush vs. Arroyo; Hill vs. Gorzelanny

Saturday: Suppan vs. Harang; Zambrano vs. Snell

Sunday: Sheets vs. Dumatrait; Trachsel vs. Morris

 

The matchups are fairly neutral, as Morris has stunk for the Pirates about as bad as Dumatrait has for the Reds.

Happy Andre Ethier day everybody!

Harrang has out number, so I'm not looking forward to that. But dang.. this is weird. September and tied for first.. I don't know what to do.

Let's curse every media outlet that chooses to rank tied teams in alphabetical order. http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/mad.gif Because that's always going to favor the cubs.

The Brewers are actually faring better against Harang than the rest of the league is. He also got shelled in his last outing, so I suppose that's good news.

The Brewers did well the last time the faced Harang, that was Prince's "6 runs should be enough" game.

See Alyssa Milano never fails. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

The Cardinals are pounding the Pirates. Ankiel has 2 HR and 5 RBI.

 

Harang is 3-4 with a 6.39 ERA (50 2/3 innings, 36 earned runs) in his last 9 games.

[Glennron]

More proof that the media wants the Cubs to win the division? This is the title of the game recap on espn.com : "Soriano's homers for naught as Dodgers upend Cubs".

 

No mention of Ethier's huge come-from-behind home run or Loney's big day.

[pitchleague]

yeah, but 2 homers IS a big deal unless you lose a game 14-2.

 

I can't WAIT to get home from work to check out the highlights.
