It's no longer an off-day.
That's good.
The Cubs have to play today.
That's bad.

There's always the drinking-game strategy. I propose one drink for each of the following:
- a Cubs pitcher issues a walk
- a Cubs batter gets a swinging strike (including fouls) on the first pitch of the appearance
- a Cubs fielding error not otherwise covered (see below)
I propose a finish-your-pint drink at these occurrences:
- a Cubs batter strikes out with RISP
- Castro has an inexcusable mental lapse
- Garza boots a routine throw to first into the stands (more applicable to tomorrow's game)
- Marmol blows a save

I am firmly in the Don't Trade Lahair camp.
What does this organization want out of a cheap, left-handed hitter under team control for several years? I don't get it. He's a gift. Take it and run.

Sorry. I'm reacting to a bunch of commenters (who aren't here anyway).

He actually struggled. Be glad The top three hitters were free swingers.nice little start by Maholm......hope he can do a lot of that tonight while (hopefully) his mates deliver runs for him.
Missed location on most of his pitches Glad he's missing low tho.
