IGT Cubs vs Rockies April 15-17

[cubsneedmiracle]

vs

Friday 6:40pm Saturday 6:10pm Sunday 1:10pm

Matt Garza, RHP

Stats
0-1, 5.68 ERA
There's been a strange symmetry to Garza's starts. In his first one, he struck out 12 and gave up 12 hits, both career highs. In his second, he struck out eight and gave up eight hits. Garza says he's getting beat on his soft stuff.

Jhoulys Chacin, RHP

Stats
2-0, 2.77 ERA
Chacin struggled but still earned the win against the Pirates on Sunday. He threw seven scoreless innings vs. the Dodgers in his first start, but he didn't have consistent fastball command in either start.

Casey Coleman, RHP

Stats
0-0, 7.20 ERA

Coleman expected to make his first start of 2011 for Triple-A Iowa but instead was called up to sub for Randy Wells, who was placed on the DL with a strained forearm. In his first start Sunday, Coleman gave up nine hits and two homers to the Brewers.

Jason Hammel, RHP

Stats
1-0, 4.91 ERA
Hammel pitched six solid innings in a no-decision in a 7-6 victory over the Mets in his last start. But he gave up a first-inning run and is challenging himself to be better at the start of games.

Ryan Dempster, RHP

Stats
1-2, 6.30 ERA
Dempster has a high career ERA of 6.79 against the Rockies, but a winning record at 5-4. In his last outing at Houston, Dempster allowed only one run in six innings before faltering in the seventh by giving up three runs.

[Shawon0Meter]

I think we take game 3 and avoid the sweep.

 

[cubsneedmiracle]

Garza at least needs a consistent start.

 

[DewsSox79]

I see Rocks taking 2 of 3.

Maybe after the double header and the flight back, they will be wore out tomorrow and the Cubs can get the W.

That would be a hopeful thought.

A lot of people are thinking that. From what I've heard.

COL winning game 2 now also....Best chance of winning would be Game 1 and 3

 

[Captain Obvious]

Maybe 1.... maybe not.

I selected "quade pull the pitcher..." But I think I'm just being hopeful, more than realistic.

 

[Jntg4]

Quade pull the pitcher... because it was the last option.
