85 Pitches

No excuse. You ride that bull until his arm falls off. If he can't come back on Sunday and throw again, then what's the offseason for? It's the playoffs. It's not like the Cubs were up 5-0 at the time. Leave him in until he's done.

Along those lines, Soriano needs to stop batting leadoff. I don't get it. Bat him third and move Lee to fifth. At least then Soriano will hit two and three run bombs to precede Lee's impending whiff or double play. I really have never thought the Cubs were very good this year and I am not confident at all. I'll be in Chicago when we get swept. Hooray.

I, however, am confident in the Cats tonight. It is absolutely monumental that we win this game. Playing three consecutive top 12 teams is never easy, especially when the most winnable is on the road--in an impossible place to play. LSU is almost indestructable, and we'll probably get Florida off of two losses so beating fake-USC is imperative. Little needs to get going, especially if it's rainy. Furthermore, Woodson cannot lay an egg; and he won't. Their offense sucks, so if we can jump on them and force them to throw it will be smooth sailing. They see the same old UK coming in; we'll go down there and blast them, 30-17.

Keep checking the Bass, and I'll have bumper stickers next week for those interested. We're getting some pretty solid word of mouth going; a couple of 1000-hit days!
