Cubs 3-3 (win series 2-1)
Brewers 3-3
POTG: 1B Derek Lee (2 H, R, 2B, 2 RBI)
This was the most random lineup yet, though I understand the plan. Ryan’s now played 15 innings in OF, and 3 at 2B.
Hey, Wade Miller isn’t good. I’m shocked. I figure he gets 3 more starts before something can be done – Pinella will impress me if he gives him a shorter leash. Miller probably won’t be this bad again, but I don’t think he’s going to be much good. Since Prior still isn’t pitching, I guess we’re waiting for Angel to force them into giving him another starting chance.
Not a good sign to see Eyre blow up. Nor DeRosa K 4 times. Eh.
Re: Cubs 9, Brewers 4
I’m not sure if you miswriting the score is something sinister or accidental :-). Either way, the Brew Crew needs every win that is rightfully theirs. Sheets, Suppan, and Capuano look like they could be 3 good starters. The key, I think, will be if the team can keep hitting. So far so good. Jenkins looks good for the first time in seemingly forever.
Capuano is a great starter as long as he keeps playing the Cubs.
