Not a horrible start to the season, pretty much what I expected. Well actually I expected 7-0. I think we could blame Neil Cotts for the Cubs two losses. I’ll boo the hell out of him tomorrow.

Soriano has been on fire, four homeruns this season in 32 at bats. Ramirez has been pretty solid as well. However the most surprising player in the first week of the season has been Fukodome, where the hell did he come from? Honestly going into the season I expected him to lose his starting job to Reed Johnson. By the way, did anybody see Johnson’s game saving grand slam catch over the center field wall in Miller Park? Wow.

Speaking of “wow” moments Ted Lilly almost threw that no hitter yesterday against the Colorado Rockies. I think I may have jinxed it. I texted my buddy letting him know it was the seventh inning and Lilly was throwing the no-no. Yep, then he gave up a base hit. It ok Lilly, I’ll blame that one on myself.

Hmmm..what else.

Oh yea, did I say that Cott sucks? Nope, I didn’t so I’ll say it. YOU SUCK COTTS.

Good news is that Soto will be back in the starting behind the plate tomorrow. Hill did a pretty good job backing up the All Star, Rookie of the Year catcher. Surprising Hill batted .300 in Sotos absence.

Almost forgot. YOU SUCK TOO LEE.

Bradley will probably be out of the game tomorrow, strained groin or something like that.

Once again Marmol SHOULD be closer. I know in earlier entries I wanted Gregg, but I didn’t realize how crappy he is.

I won’t be sitting in my regular seats for tomorrows game, my uncle has those. I was able to pick up some upper deck tickets though, should be a good one.

*Side note, I read that a cat apparently walked into the Mets new ball park, Citi Field. If anybody knows the history of the ’69 Cubs, a black cat walked past Ron Santo. The Cubs had a huge lead in the Eastern division that year, and from then on out the Cubs slumped and the Mets went on to win the World Series. I don’t believe in curses and all, but hmmm, maybe karma will work things out.
