Gameday Thread, #24: 5/1 vs. Cubs

Arizona Diamondbacks at Chicago Cubs, May 1, 2010 1:05 PM EDT


Ari_medium


Dan Haren
RHP, 3-1, 4.50

chc_medium


Carlos Silva
RHP, 2-0, 1.73

An even earlier start today  I'm getting fed up of day games. Line-up after the jump, and that'll be about it.

Star-divide

  1. Kelly Johnson 2B
  2. Justin Upton RF
  3. Stephen Drew SS
  4. Mark Reynolds 3B
  5. Adam LaRoche 1B
  6. Chris Young CF
  7. Gerardo Parra LF
  8. Chris Snyder C
  9. Dan Haren RHP

Couple of amusing factoids. Seven of our nine starters today have an OPS+ greater than 100. And guess which one is second-best, after Kelly Johnson?

Dan Haren, OPS+ of 155.

Carlos Silva sucks. Let's kick his ass!

I don’t mind it on a Saturday so much, but during the week, they’re really rather irritating. I understand that Wrigley has all sorts of tradition, et cetera, but I’d rather see those homeless people in the outfield bleachers out looking for gainful employment instead of drinking themselves silly.

DFA Howry and purchase the contract of Jason Urquidez from Reno. It’s not worth trading Snyder for a bullpen arm because he’s worth more than that unless we can get a closer-upside guy (i.e. Daniel Bard) plus an average-ish prospect. But I guarantee that Urquidez would be better than Howry. Also, remove Kroenke from the 40-man roster (even if you straight-up get rid of him), demote Parra to Reno so he can learn to hit lefties so we can actually keep him in games like these, and sign Juan Cruz.
