Cubs have 4-5 pretty decent bats.

Re: 8/17/2012 Cubs at Reds
I predict an ugly night for Travis Wood. Just saw him last Saturday, and will likely not pitch his best game of the year tonight. And, we might need it with Arroyo on the hill.

Re: 8/17/2012 Cubs at Reds
Well to be the contrarian, Travis did pretty well for four innings. I expect anohter dogfight with Bronson on the mound. If we get good Bronson, we're good. If not, just like last night, we struggle. Hope for the best.

Re: 8/17/2012 Cubs at Reds
That's about as good a lineup and order as you can make with Votto on the shelf. Heck, even acknowledging Frazier in front of Rolen. Kudos Dusty.

Re: 8/17/2012 Cubs at Reds
So it's set, Redmond will start the second game of the DH. Fay posted a small article about this. This one line just caught my eye. I love this.

It's not like the Reds haven't seen Travis Wood enough.

Re: 8/17/2012 Cubs at Reds
In 2012, Wood has already given up 18 HRs, and Arroyo 20. How many tonight?
I'll guess five; Three for the Reds, two for the Cubs.
