I cross my fingers for a split. Probably will lose 3 of 4. A solid chance to be swept. Yikes!

In truth though, you never know what you'll get when these teams get together. It's never as easy as it should be for either team (excluding last July).

Getting the cubs for 4 games at wrigley before Aramis Ramirez is back playing for them every day at 3rd, with Reed Johnson likely on the DL forcing Fukudome to play, and with the rest of their offense scuffling is a blessing - remember last July when all Brewer fans were stoked about Sabathia and Sheets kicking off the big 4 gamer at Miller Park last year? Pitching matchups often don't mean much with these teams. I for one hope all four games are in the 80's with the wind blowing out at about 30 mph.

Or having Gamel/Hart/Hardy heat up, we could blow them out. Breweres seem to hit Zambrano pretty well also.

He had a 0.43 ERA in 3 starts against the Brewers. But, I'll be at the Friday, Saturday, Sunday games and my Brewers record at Wrigley is quite good. If I owned Wrigleyville and Hell, I'd rent out Wrigleyville and live in Hell. If Geovany Soto's batting average slips any lower, we'll have to water him twice a day.

Thanks for giving me at least a ray of hope that I won't be sitting through 3 miserable games. Where will you be sitting? I will be in 220, 236, and 506 for the 3 games, respectively.

I'll be a bleacher bum all three days. Wrigley is the one place I really have no reservations in sitting out there (I've gotten tickets in back of home, only to find a pole in front of my face). I love getting there early and getting first row seats. i was there when that Brewer fan caught that Prince homer and wouldn't throw it back. People pelted my brother and I with hot dog wrappers while chanting "Jeffery Dahmer." We had the audacity to be Brewer fans. Anyway, we won. If I owned Wrigleyville and Hell, I'd rent out Wrigleyville and live in Hell. If Geovany Soto's batting average slips any lower, we'll have to water him twice a day.

Of course that probably mean you can't trust ERA, especially when McClung has yet to start a game and Burns has only started one.

You pitched great....Keep it up Crew!
