Should be like 2 hour max and call it but I guess MLB really hates playing unplanned doubleheaders.

It's an early start and the Cubs have a travel day on Thurs so it wouldn't be that bad. I don't know what the Braves situation is because I can't be assed to look.

Been following in gameday while stranded in meeting hell. Now that I'm free just chiming in to say that the Cubs might actually be good again. Like :lol: a QS and a dinger from Mike Montgomery. Who'd have thunk it.

Also what happened to Bryant? All I saw was he BLAN'd in the first and then got pulled.

Sprained his finger on the defenders cleat while diving headfirst into third. Thankfully he's day to day

Also stop sliding in headfirst, you stupid dorks. :mad:

X Ray's were negative, thankfully. From the way his fingers bent back on replay it looked like a certain dislocation. He may miss the st Louis series but I don't think he will go on the DL.
