Sunday Morning Headlines/ Game Thread Cubs @ Reds 12:10 CT/1:10 ET WGN

That's more like it Cubs snap into shape A day too late. From the Daily Herald: Cubs manager Lou Piniella issued a warning before Saturday night's 14-9 victory over the Cincinnati Reds. "These last 20 games or 21 games, I'm going to try to play a lineup that can win a ballgame that day," he said. "That's all I'm going to do. I've played everybody all year. Everybody's gotten opportunities all year. "And now we're going to try to play a lineup that can win a baseball game that particular night. These guys want to stay in the lineup, swing the bats." It seems the Cubs got the message. One guy who really got it was left fielder Alfonso Soriano, who hit solo homers in the third and fifth innings and followed it with a 3-run blast in the sixth. It was the third time Soriano went deep three times in a game, and it helped the Cubs (86-56) snap a six-game losing streak. The 14 runs matched their amount for the entire six-game skid. More on Lou's new-look lineup Why didn't he try ...

Ok.  Everyone calm down.  If Major League Baseball resembles anything at the moment, it's slasher films from the 80's, and Cubs fans are acting like the helpless red-shirted dorks who drop their glasses in the rain and thank the person who gives them back, only to find out that they're...The Killer. Hey, as long as we're on the subject of red-shirted, first-to-die-in-movie dopes with glasses... You see what I did there? If you don't follow the Reds that much, you may not have noticed that the Reds traded away two of their best players: Adam Dunn and Ken Griffey, Jr.  Dunn now plays for the Diamondbacks, while Junior is on Chicago's South Side. So I'm not promising anything, but...Corey Patterson has taken over OF duties for Adam Dunn. The Pitchers For the Cubs, it's left-handed Ted Lilly.  With Zambrano hurt, and Rich Harden fragile, the Cubs need Ted Lilly to step up.  Also, it doesn't hurt that he's pitching against Corey Patterson. Ted is a Ca...

Thursday 8/21 Game Recap; Cubs 3, Reds 2
2008-08-22 02:46:00
Sorry for you, Korey Today, your Chicago Cubs avoided looking like complete arses, defeating the Reds 3-2 and coming away with the 2-1 series win. I can only imagine the collective shudder after the first batter of the game, Chris Dickerson walked on 4 pitches. Chris Dickerson = Eric's son? You decide Apparently Big Z had a Big Z moment and got it together (from the AP, via Yahoo): Carlos Zambrano delivered a heated first-inning lecture to someone he knew would listen-himself. Upset after giving up a four-pitch walk to leadoff batter Chris Dickerson, Zambrano calmed down, regrouped and got out of the inning. The Cubs' ace also overcame a sore tooth, and homered on Thursday to finally get his 13th victory as Chicago beat the Cincinnati Reds 3-2. "I was talking to myself. I told myself, 'Is it that hard to throw strikes? Come on, let's go,"' Zambrano said. "I would rather have people go out there and hit home runs than walk somebody. I hate walks." So do we, Carlos, so do we. A...

You guys are facing Josh Fogg, for crying out loud. 7.71 ERA? I've been watching Little Leaguers this week that could do better than that in the majors. Game is on Comcast, and for us down-low folks, SportSouth (not to be confused with Fox Sports South). Winning series is important!
Game Thread; Reds at Cubs, 8:05 p.m. EDT/7:05 CT: Are the Reds Having A Lau

One of the good things about having a 6 5.5 (thanks a lot, Cecil and your sorry-ass guarantee)-game lead is you don't have to stress about every game. Especially when the Reds come in town. Did you see that lineup last night? Wow. So, speaking of the Reds, they just sent out a letter to their season-ticket holders (no word on if there is such a thing) explaining their "plan." And by plan, I mean, sucking. Here are a few highlights, along with the true meaning: What they said: "While the run production generated by these two veterans (Griffey and Dunn) will not be quickly replaced, we chose to endure the short-term ramifications for the sake of building a strong, competitive team for 2009 and many seasons to come." What they meant: "Those were our two best players, and the guys who actually got what few fans we have left to come to the ballpark. So, yeah, we're in trouble. But we have hope for next year. I am a broken record." What they said: "Since taking ownership of this franch...

Dusty in happier days It's actually kind of cute the lengths that Reds.com has gone to to try to keep their fans engaged; like suggesting that the Reds, now 21.5 games back of the Cubs, are still "a factor" in the division race. CINCINNATI -- The Reds are 21 1/2 games out of first place. But that does not mean they're not participants in the pennant race. Actually, it does. But never fear. Dusty has big plans for next season. And with an abundance of youth on the roster, Cincinnati manager Dusty Baker feels the experience will be good for his club. "It'll be beneficial because we're planning on being in that race next year," Baker said. "Guys that have never been there don't know what it's like. We need to get a taste of it." So Dusty's plan is to start playing the young guys. You know, Corey Patterson, Jerry Hairston Jr., Neifi. The young guys. Meanwhile, the (marginally) more intelligent fans over at Red Reporter have begun pondering what they did to deserve a season tha...

Ted Lilly nods that it's time to get it on! Today's matchup is one of good and evil, awesomeness and non-awesomeness (in the words of Barney Stinson). With the Cubs, you have Theodore R. Lilly, who is a pretty decent pitcher and overall bad-ass. For further documentation of this, check out the always-entertaining Ted Lilly Fan Club. Good stuff over there on a consistent basis. But pitching for the Reds is Bronson Arroyo, otherwise known as "King Douche." I'm sick of his act and it's time to end it. King Douche ??Bronson thinks he's cool because he plays guitar. Dude, you're not John Mayer. I'd listen to Miley Cyrus before I listen to your garbage. The only reason your music is of any interest is because you can also throw a baseball fast. But here's the kicker: NO ONE LIKES YOUR MUSIC. Ooh, you can play guitar? Hey, so can my friend Jeff! He's at the local bar in the arts district every Thursday. ??Bronson has the "flip hair."

The Cubs' brass is listening! And making good decisions! So, yeah, yesterday kicked major ass. Some may have an ill opinion of Hendry, but he's probably one of the more underrated G.M.'s and doesn't get enough credit. He's just an easy target. So make fun if you want, but I'd rather have someone who's willing to take a risk rather than just sit on his ass. And some have mentioned the whole "Billy Beane as a golden god G.M.," but I just don't see it here, aside from Gallagher. As a matter of fact, since he's leaving, let's pay tribute to Matt Murton by showing his highlight reel: If all we get is a half-healthy Harden and Chad Gaudin for King WAGGLE, another inconsistent Patterson, a minor-league catcher and a future decent starter, yeah, I'm OK with that. Oh, and there's a game tonight. Someone named Zambrano making his second start since returning from the D.L.

Guess who's back? Toothpick: The toothpick has been around longer than our species. The skulls of Neanderthals, as well as Homo sapiens, have shown clear signs of having teeth that were picked with a tool.[2] It is the oldest instrument for dental cleaning. Toothpicks are well-known in all cultures. Before the toothbrush was invented, one cleaned one's teeth with hard and soft dental woods. Toothpicks made of bronze have been found as burial objects in prehistoric graves in Northern Italy and in the East Alps. It was also well-known in Mesopotamia. There are delicate, artistic examples made of silver in antiquity, as well as from mastic wood with the Romans. In the 17th century toothpicks were luxury objects similar to jewellery items. They were formed from precious metal and set with expensive stones. Frequently they were artistically stylized and enameled. The first toothpick-manufacturing machine was patented in 1872, by Silas Noble and J. P. Cooley.[3] Nowadays other means of ...

Reds In Shock Bid For Gunners Ace - Report

Liverpool are reportedly planning a sneaky ?6million bid for Arsenal striker Nicklas Bendtner? Reds boss Rafa Benitez is keen to add depth to his forward line over the summer, and reports from England claim he is considering a shock swoop for the Danish youngster.The 20-year-old has received limited opportunities with the Gunners due to the emergence of Togolese striker Emmanuel Adebayor, with whom the Dane has had a rather drastic falling out.Bendtner has generally struggled to live up to his billing as one of the most promising young strikers in Europe, although late last season he exhibited glimpses of his significant potential.Wenger will be reluctant to sell given the respective injury issues of Robin van Persie and Eduardo da Silva, not to mention the growing uncertainly surrounding Adebayor?s future at the Emirates.But Benitez will almost certainly have to replace the unsettl...
