    Taking Cubs Tonight

    Got it at -106 this morning, line moved up to about -120 then back down to about -110 right now. Garza has been sharp all year and Cubs have been playing really good ball of late winning series against the Dodgers and Braves. Cubs have also murdered Wolf over the years. Only downside is they haven't been very good against lefties this year. I think they get it done.

    $500 play for Friday

    I really want to hammer this Cougar.

    Fvcking Cubs. There's no reason in theory why they can't cruise to a win here.

    Cubs are better than people think. Good value here with Garza.

    Then again, I don't bet MLs.

    Yeah seems like a nice price for Garza vs. Wolf

    So of course I am skeptical but have to play it

    He's typically a pretty shaky 1st inning pitcher anyway, but this has disaster written all over it.

    Really? I guess I haven't noticed, but I've seen him struggle before in the past early. Must've been last year.

    Yeah the Cubs of years past beat Wolf so they are more likely to do it again in 2012

    Cougar you are better than this

    At least take Garza because you think he got a good nights sleep and you prank called Wolf at 4am

    At least the Cubs brought their bats today vs. Cy Wolf.



    Typical Garza start.

    Shoulda known this under was solid. Cubs can't hit anyone and Garza keeps them in games.

    Maybe he is, but who was he playing for last year then?

    What'd you expect in a rebuilding year? For them to go out and snatch up relievers at 3-4 million per pop? All these guys are minor leaguers except Wood and Marmol who is a head case.

    When you go into the season with the Cubs' lineup, you don't go out and buy relievers to build a decent bullpen. There is no point.

    What else would you call cutting 35-40 million in payroll from 2010 to 2012?

    They are getting the bad contracts off the books. There won't be any additions until that is accomplished.
