5/4 120cst Chad Billingsley 2-1 2.64era .95whip vs. Paul Maholm 2-2 6.20era 1.33whip
5/5 1205c TBA vs. Matt Garza 2-1 2.67era .89whip
5/6 120c TBA vs. Chris Volstad 0-3 6.11era 1.39whip


Records
Dodgers 17-8 1st in NL West
Cubs 9-16 6th in NL Central

Last 10
Dodgers 5-5
Cubs 5-5

Stats

OPS
Dodgers .739 3rd in NL
Cubs .650 13th in NL

Home Runs
Dodgers 23 6th in NL
Cubs 14 14th in NL

Team ERA
Dodgers 3.45 8th in NL
Cubs 3.94 12th in NL

Team WHIP
Dodgers 1.19 4th in NL
Cubs 1.28 8th in NL

Clear pitching advantage 2 out of 3 games regardless of who they announce to match up against Volstad. After a crazy hot start, the Dodgers have fallen back to earth and outside the best hitter in baseball, their lineup doesn't scare you too much. That said, Cubs are terrible. Dodgers take 2 of 3.

You can not go wrong with Mather and LaHair in your lineup.....too bad Stevie C isn't back yet.

Soft tossing left hander...wouldn't be this a good time to have started Baker at 3rd instead of the sub .200 Stewart?

I guess Baker has the flu.

Volstad sucks.

Well OK then

Volstad is a piece of shit. Does he have options left? Bring up Wells or Travis Wood.

Hopefully Travis pitches well tomorrow and can then slide into Volstad's spot as Volstad is very bad and should get the boot from the rotation.

Agreed. Volstad is absolutely terrible and belongs in Iowa.

Not much to see today......Volstad sucked, Soto sucked, Castro and Stewert had some hits, LaHair walked and Marmol got out the mop and pitched an effective yet meaningless inning.

DL Garza retroactive to his last start would make sense. He would be able to come off the DL in time for his next start. They say he just has the flu though. Nut up Garza.
