Hail Cesar (close). Is this the beginning of the Prieto era?
Hey, ya never know. I'm all for a 3B change
Prieto is playing 3rd base tonight due to the following:
With McGreevy on the mound, he requests Herrera to be his battery mate . So when Herrera moves to C , then Gorman takes his spot as DH in the lineup . Thus someone must play 3rd base ... Tonight it will be Prieto . Other times it could be Saggese but Oli wants Prieto to get first shot to see how he does ( the coaches pretty much know Saggese's off. and def. )

Might be one of those seasons for the Cubs. They just wont lose
You may want to tweak that by saying .. 'They just won't lose'.. AT HOME VERY OFTEN. They have played a heavily lopsided schedule between home and away so far.
At Wrigley 23 games and AWAY only 15 games. Home record = 18-5 On the road, 8-7
By contrast, the Cardinals (3.5 games back of the Cubs ) have played 20 at home with 17 games on the road ( a much more balanced schedule so far home vs away ) At Busch, 10-10 on the road 12-5
While the Cardinals are .500 at home (a far cry from Cubs domination at Wrigley), the Cardinals have won more than twice as many times on the road than they've lost . The Cubs are barely over .500 in road games.
