considering where they are in the lineup (3-4-5) and considering the bullpen situation, I'll wager to say that if the Cubs don't score here, they won't win.

Considering the M's just traded Miley they are probably short handed too. This could be a really strange game.

Here's a fun thought..... Matusz gave up 6 runs in 3 innings and isn't gonna get the loss :D

I have to assume that the Cubs will DFA Matsuz tomorrow, take Grimm up then potentially send him down Tuesday for Cahill, who will start Tuesday's game.

Lackey might just walk up and pop this umpire at home....he's got a bit of a temper and this clown behind the plate is brutal.

Can't recall Grimm for 10 days. Probably would bring Cahill up.

Why start Cahill Tuesday?

Which starters got hurt that I am unaware of?

Great job by Hector and Chapman, two guys who had pitched a lot the past four days.

That was operating under the theory Lackey was coming in and pitched enough that would make him move back a day.

We can't allow them to bat again, and we don't need to force Lackey to pitch in relief.

Let's just get this right now.

I see. But that would be two spot starters in 3 days. Whoever follows Lackey in rotation would be on regular rest Tuesday
