The Stinky Fish at Chicago Cubs
Zambrano seeks his 99th career victory today as he takes on Nolasco and the Marlins. He has great numbers against the Fish, 4-0 with a 2.98 ERA in eight starts versus the Marlins since 2003. He hasn't lost to Florida since July 1, 2002. Can't go against those numbers. As for Nolasco, he has allowed at least four runs in four of his five starts. He gave up four runs and six hits in five innings of a 7-4 road loss to the New York Mets on Tuesday, but did not He gets the loss today as the Cubs touch him up.The Cubs are 4-1 backing Carlos Zambrano,& the Cubs are 7-1 over in their last eight games.
Wiz's pick:Chicago Cubs
White Sox vs. Texas
With Chris Getz and Jim Thome recovered from injury, and 2005 hero Scott Podsednik called up from Class AAA, the Sox beat the Rangers courtesy of those three players. Thome hit a three-run homer, while Podsednik scored on a Getz triple to break the tie. ,Meanwhile Mark Buehrle continued to show why he is the ace of the staff, going six innings and allowing three runs on seven hits to improve to 4-0 on the year. Bobby Jenks picked up save No. 6; I expect a similar effort today as the White Sox look to erase yesterday's 9-6 loss from their minds. Starting pitcher John Danks had an uncharacteristically bad outing his last time out as he has worked his way up to being a solid starter. His ERA only jumped up to 2.74 with this performance, a testament to his three other starts this season.
Wiz's pick:Chicago W/Sox
