Yep of course he is. Weather reports from Wrigley are that winds are blowing OUT to right field at 20 mph. Let's put it this way, anything in the air hit about 300 ft. on a normal day will be gone

Anyone else think that batting Owings in the 9th spot is kind of ignorant? IMO if he is going to hit like he has been, why not let him bat 8th and give AGon a chance to roll the order over. Gonzo is faster and is better on the bases anyway, so why not create a good thing both ways by letting Owings clear the bases after Bruce or EE gets on, because you can almost count on Hernandez getting out. It would also give us a better chance of getting speed on the bases for Joey Votto and Brandon Phillips. Just a thought, but I think it would be productional.
WE DON'T, WE DON'T, WE DON'T MESS AROUND HEY!
WOOO!
Good idea.Dusty is paid to think this way and its sad that he doesn't.I would say that he should be batting even higher then 8th.
Who ever wrote this might have been on to something.
intrestinggggggggggg...
It's nice to see him starting to come around. especially against the 3 pitchers the Cubs ran out there. I'd like to see him do it for at least a week or two before we get the anointing oils out but I am very encouraged.
He likes hitting at home if you look at his splits from last season. GABP is the only place that he fared better then Wrigley Field. A nice 6 game homestand might be just what the doctor ordered for our boy.
He took some nice cuts in the Cubs series. Nice 2 out RBI today. Just hoping he like everyone else can continue to build on it. We need him and Phillips to get hot to keep Votto safe and to continue to get him pitches to hit.

The apparently relentless success of Votto will push Bruce and Phillips to hit. Hitters feed off each other. The good spells Dunn and Griffey had, (When Jr. wasn't hurt), was the same way. It becomes like a competition. Bruce and Phillips have shown they can be the perverbial "Professional Hitter", and will do their jobs.
