Ill update when the lineup come out, but I think the Cubs crush Moore tonight. He is the type of pitcher they feast on.

Man Giants Stadium looks an awful like Wrigley Field.

@TheCCO: #Cubs vs. #Giants, Moore (10/11):
Fowler CF
Bryant 3B
Rizzo 1B
Zobrist LF
Russell SS
Heyward RF
Baez 2B
Ross C
Lackey P

Figured we see regular lineup tonight, I thought maybe Contreras would catch..

Look like Maddon going with the vet Ross to shutdown the Giants..

I'm hoping to see everyone hit tonight and take the Giants out of this early..
Plus
Maybe send a little message to next opponent that says we're all hitting now..
Looking at you Rizzo

Rizzo was like 0-10 in that last game alone. Here's hoping he can get on base.

Let's take a huge lead into the late innings so when Joe decides to manage completely differently than he has all year, we can overcome it. :)

Mostly I want them to get on base, the hitting will take care of itself. Moore will walk batters but the hits may be hard to come by at least early as he probably will pepper his pitch selection with curves and sliders which we hit a combined .191 against. Get guys on though and he'll be forced to go to his fastball.

With the exception of that crazy 90 degree turn in the wall, and the entire RF bleacher section that looks toward the LF stands instead of the field.

Guys - horrible news --- according to the media and some Cubs fans, the SF Giants have back door swept us and our season is over. MLB has decided to cancel Game 4 and Game 5, with SF advancing 3-2.

Rizzo finished 0-24 with 16 K's, Baez pimped 6 almost-homers-turned-outs, Maddon brought in Chapman to pitch the 6th-9th while giving up 7 runs, and Buster Posey hit for the cycle the last two games.

Guess I'll be watching Housewives of Jersey with the wife tonight, instead.

I would have played Almora over Heyward against a lefty.

I dont think either Montero or Contrares can settle Lackey down if he is not getting the corners.

The Cubs paid Heyward a lot of money to help them in the postseason.

He'll take pitches and work counts, and is our best OF defender.

He can't sit again. That stupid double switch last night may have cost us the game.

Looking at the lineup, I'd actually like to score a few runs. I wouldn't have Heyward in against a LHP at the start. Not with Ross catching over Contreras.
