CHC Carlos Zambrano, RHP{12-7, 3.69}@STL Kip Wells, RHP{4-12, 5.75}


Scouting Report:

Cubs:Zambrano became the National League's first 12-game winner with a victory over the Giants in his last start. The Cubs took advantage of a 9-0 lead to give Zambrano a breather, pulling him after 80 pitches and five innings. He gave up two hits in the shortened start and struck out three. Since June 6, when he declared he was starting his season over, Zambrano is 7-2 with a 1.43 ERA and has given up 10 earned runs over 63 innings, while striking out 66.

Cardinals:Good news has been more common than bad news for Wells lately, even if it hasn't been all sunshine and light. Wells is clearly headed in the right direction, as his eight excellent innings against the Marlins showed. He'll get the ball to start a critical homestand, as the Cards have a week of games against the two teams they're chasing in the standings. The Cards have not ruled out Mike Maroth for this start, but Wells is the more likely candidate.

Cav we make game threads here not series threads.
You make game threads until the Cubs lose then another poster makes a new game thread.
Change the title to July 24th game thread.

He's new.
Yeah we can't have series threads here especially one against the Cardinals because it will go at least 30 pages.
