my # Cubs -166 take back Nationals +157
Nationals lineup with serious issues
guillen nursing sore shoulder
johnson bruised right heal out
church shoulder DL
guzman out left last night with hamstring
vidro still on rehab assignment
Nationals pitcher Hernandez pitching on extra days rest a big plus,
considering only two viable options in Nationals bullpen
Cordero and Carrasco were used again last night.
Bullpen got hit last night while Ayala and Majewski struggling against
lefties.
Cubs lefties and switcher available for tomorrow
Macias, Perez, Walker, Burnitz, Hollandsworth, Patterson should give
Hernandez and his bullpen some problems.
Cubs pitcher Prior throwing darts himself and is rested also.
Much rather have Cubs coming off a loss @ home than a Nationals team
coming off sweep(relaxed)
Only thing keeping this game from a full 3 unit play is
Hernandez recieving that extra days rest and throwing a complete game
gem that his is always capable of and
Cubs 3B Ramirez left game bruised right knee last nite day to day
Still think # is a little cheap, get it while it lasts, # will be -170 by game
Cubs with just not as many negatives as Nationals coming into this
contest.
Cubs Prior -148 2 unit play overnite
