NOTES-
Cubs took 2 of 3 at Wrigley last month. Look to start a winning streak again after coming off two tough losses to the crappy Rangers of Arlington.

And Sox fans, Lee >>> Konerko.

It's the Cobs VS the Sux.
Battle of the 2 worst bullpens in baseball.

[Posey H8er]

Once the Sox fans get a thread up, TROLL!

[SportsWorld]

Just got my tickets for this game.
Cub fans go online and buy tickets to invade the South Side.
I got mine for only $30.00
Can't wait to see the battle of the bullpens.

[Posey H8er]

When will the White Sox board make a thread? I know there season is more down the drain than ours, but this is the Crosstown Classic.

John Cusack was on Leno last night and he said he was a fan of both teams. I don't think its really possible to be a fan of both teams.

You either;

a.) are saying it so you don't piss off any moviegoers (in Cusack's case)
b.) don't really pay attention to baseball
c.) aren't a diehard

Even though I'm sure the city benefited from the Sox most recent World Series win, I didn't give a damn.

[Posey H8er]

^ I thought I heard he was a Cubs fan.

[2poor]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure he is really a Cubs fan (I know he's a northsider), but he was just saying he was a fan of both teams because he was on national television.

[SportsWorld]

He is scared of the South Side like we all are.
Seriously when I am at US Cellular I fear for my life
Somehow I am fine at the United Center though even though it isn't in the best neighborhood.

[GYBE]

On my fantasy team, the news under Aramis' name indicated he'd be back today. Is that confirmed by the team?

[treyZz]

Cusack is a fraud.

Screw that douche.

He was at the White Sox world series games 2years ago in White Sox gear.

[Posey H8er]

On my fantasy team, the news under Aramis' name indicated he'd be back today. Is that confirmed by the team?

I don't know but I am starting him.

[2poor]

Rangers announcers were saying that Aramis was participating in BP before their games, so I don't think its a stretch.

[2poor]

One of our prospects...

Mark Holliman ended a personal four-game losing streak in style, hurling a seven-inning no-hitter as Tennessee blanked visiting Huntsville, 3-0, in Thursday's doubleheader opener.

Holliman (7-5) faced one batter over the minimum in a near-perfect effort. The 23-year-old right-hander retired the first six batters, issued a leadoff walk to Adam Heether in the top of the third inning and mowed down the final 15 men he faced.

He also helped himself at the plate, smacking a two-run homer in the fifth inning.

[SportsWorld]

Pat and Ron said Aramis would be playing today and they think he will be a DH.

cubs got this, big z FTW!

[2poor]

Not that you guys care that much, but I thought I'd share that my job with the University of Michigan Health System has been approved to change to a full-time salaried position complete with a full benefits package.

I am ECSTATIC!

Nice. Check your PM's.

[2poor]

Aw hell. Responded.

There are many tickets available there for reasonable prices it seems.

[2poor]

Looks like Soriano got us off to a good start, another leadoff HR.

1-0 Cubbies.
