Well, manager Lou Piniella hints the Cubs could become creative and trim down to 11 pitchers, which raises another problem. Although only one position player would have to be moved, two pitchers could go because reliever Angel Guzman returns Monday as well.
"The best of all worlds for us, and I don't know if we can do it, is to get by with 11 pitchers and just have to make one player move," Piniella said. "To me that makes sense because it gives us more parts during the course of a ballgame."
Thank GOD Soriano wasn't voted into the Allstar game... I actually want the NL to win this year for once. Seems kinda coincidental that the last 8 years that Soriano has been voted in the NL has lost.*
*I don't know the NL record the last 8 years, but it seems like they have lost the last 10

Julie, did you have a good time? Glad you had good weather-hot and hot here.
Love to hear "Go Cubs Go"-Chip called a good game. Somehow I think Harry must have enjoyed hearing him today!
