Cardinals and Cubs at the Dump
Once again the Cardinals and Cubs are set to square off at Wrigley Field. You think the Cubs have the bad taste of a Redbird sweep out of their mouth yet? That’s exactly what happened the last series these two played – so let’s expect much of the same.
Friday – Carpenter @ Harden: Cardinals win here. Carpenter is dominating and the Cubs just plain can’t hit. Harden has been less than stellar this year so expect a Redbird victory.
Saturday – Thompson @ Lilly: The LONE Cubbie All-Star is facing off against the worst Cardinal started. You SHOULD win a game here Cub fans… Enjoy it.
Sunday Game 1 – Wainwright @ Wells: AW has been lights out lately. Sure Wells has been getting a few wins but I expect the offense to go and hide against Wainwright. Cardinals win.
Sunday Game 2 – Lohse @ Zambrano: Should be a fun one and this is where the real fun begins for us Cub haters. We love seeing Zambrano implode and I expect the Cardinals offense to hit him hard. Pujols will be gearing up for the HR Derby on Monday and take Zambrano yard, not once, but twice. I could even see a 6-6 game going into the 9th only to see the Cubbie bullpen suck it up.
There you have it. Want to hear your thoughts on this series. By the way, anyone going to the all-star weekend?
