Re: 5/8 GC
They need to take this game and stay headed in the right direction.

The Cubs are trotting out one of TLR's old "Sunday lineups," and after a decent start to the season Villanueva has pitched like the crappy journeyman his is in his last two outings.
All of it should add up to an easy day for the Cardinals, which of course means the Cubs will win.

Re: 5/8 GC
Following the game on MLB.com. Wonder if Ricketts will object to the graphics, since they show fans sitting in the rooftop seats that don't generate any revenue for the Cubs.

Re: 5/8 GC
"Anthony Rizzo doubles (10) on a line drive to right fielder Carlos Beltran. Luis Valbuena scores. Fielding error by right fielder Carlos Beltran. Two out."
Details, anyone?

Re: 5/8 GC
Saw the clip. This one of the reasons I loathe Beltran. I have no problem with him playing hot potato. The ball hits the door instead of the ivy and caroms back toward him faster than he expected. Stuff happens. The throw back to the infield with the urgency of a tortoise taking a dump is what drives me crazy about him.

Re: 5/8 GC
Even though the Cardinals are leading right now, I've had a bad feeling about this game all day.

Don't go overboard; there's still 130 games to go.

When have I ever been anything but a model of restraint and moderation?

Josh Hamilton actually homered last night. I assume he's still on your fantasy team. You go ahead and have that beer. Maybe 2. You deserve it.

Pissa. I benched him this week because I had to find a way to get Starling Marte into my lineup.

Hope Marte's having a good week. Hamilton hit another one tonight.

I think at this point if I flipped a coin and called heads and tails, the coin would land on its edge.

Re: 5/8 GC
As someone who also owns Hamilton and doesn't have to make weekly lineups, please stick with Marte.

Marte's 7-game hit streak ended last night with an 0-for-4 with 3 Ks. This is the part where I saw to myself "It's only fantasy baseball ..."
