(BEEFCAKE)

Yesterday's game was rained out. That always sucks. Yesterday's starters get pushed to today.

The big news is that Kyle Schwarber will be called up to DH and hopefully play some catcher for the five road interleague games starting tomorrow. I'm not going to sit here and gloat that I was right, but I was right. It's good to be right...even if it's one time out of a hundred.

The plan for Schwarber is to DH, pinch hit and get some innings at catcher and LF in his brief callup. After the series with the Twins, he'll be sent back down to AAA Iowa...the ole promotion wrapped in a demotion trick.

Arismendy Alcantara K'd 3 times in yesterday's I-Cubs game, but he also smoked two dongs.

I am completely unaware of this Ryan Williams (RHP) character the Cubs have in their minor league system, but he's apparently a prospect now as he K'd 7 over 6.0 IP and scattered three hits and two walks.

The Cubs are 7 games over .500 in mid-June...would you have thought that going into the season? I would have taken it in a heartbeat on Opening Day. They're currently in 3rd in the NL Centeral behind the evil, no good dirty Hackers and the Pirates. The Cubs are 7.0 games back of St. Louis, 1.0 game back of Pittsburgh and all three clubs have been 7-3 in their last 10 games.

Let's take a minute...or several months...to sit our smug, Cardinal hating fart clouds of hate while St. Louis gets investigated for hate-hacking the Houston Astros.

Waiting for my huuuuge Cardinal fan friend that thought "deflategate" was a national tragedy to respond to the ny times link. He thought Brady should be gone the whole year.

Stanley Cup will be in the house tonight. The Young Cubs will get a taste of what a Champion is treated like in Chicago. Maybe some of those vibes will rub off.

As big as this Blackhawks party will be this week it is only a dress rehearsal for a Cubs World Series Championship party.

I have fapped more to the Cardinals hacking story than when a 4chan user posted the celeb nudes. This is the true fappening.

Lets hope we can keep pace with the red hot pirates so Theo can make a big move come the end of July. I'm thinking Justin Upton, Cole hammels, james shields...

Between Schwarber and Vogelbach, we could really use one.

This game looks like the Cubs are playing the Indians from Major League.

Anyone else just watch Bryant hit that BP Grand Slam? I knew it was bad news when he hit Baxter to bring Bryant up. Good stuff.

Sheesh. 2 position player pitchers. Good for bryant...I guess. It's his job to hit the ball though.
