4/17: Shields vs. Hammel
4/18: Ross vs. Hendricks
4/19: Cashner Vs. Lester


Obviously a very solid Padres team. Winning 2 would be excellent.

Theo's thing is to bring up prospects on the road, but with what sounds like a real bad injury to Ramirez... wonder if Bryant's up tomorrow.

Gonna be a tough series. I love that the Pads gm went all Fantasy Baseball this year though.

And they probably have a better bullpen now with Kimbrel, so cant fall behind.

Before the season I guessed the Pittsburgh series. Going to stick with that. 6 game road trip to get him used to MLB life as much as possible before a home debut.

That 3rd game is the Game of the Week for Sox fans.
Wouldn't they love to see Cashner dominate Lester?
Especially if Rizzo went 0-fer and struck out every time?

The Chris Sale game will be the game of the week for me but that one should be pretty good too.

Cashner will probably throw a Trade Revenge Gem ala Travis Wood vs The Reds

BREAKING NEWS....Padres / Cubs - Cashner / Rizzo have met more than once since this trade happened.
Good trade for both teams but win for the Cubs with Cashner's injury problems and Rizzo's performance / years of control with a team friendly deal.

Looks like Bryant is in the lineup today in AAA. Guessing Monday is the day.


Also, Russell is playing 2B for the first time.

Castro looked good as hell last night at SS. One game, I know, but he got to everything and threw the ball spot on...solid hard throws too. Russell will be the SS, but Castro should have no problem moving to 3B or 2B.

Padres with their horses. I'm worried about this series. Padres offense is much improved and they probably have the pitching edge. I'd me supremely happy if the Cubs take two.

I guess these are the types of series Cubs have to win though if they want to contend.

Today the weather is good, Saturday looks to be on the cool side, and Sunday has a high chance of rain in the afternoon.

Terrible start.

That's restaurant quality right there sini.

Hammel keeping the ball up is not going end well.

Do you know any that are hiring? I'm a natural with dishes! Solomente se un poquito de español pero yo trato!

Also I belted out OH NO FUCK ME!!!!?when Upton hit that cuz I recently traded him for degrom (with khtis Davis and Carl Crawford to soften the blow)

Anyways I'm tingly all over so it's time for history or time to jerk off. Arguably one in the same.
