Your Cubbies beat my DBacks pretty well last weekend. That really sucked. At least we had the Rockies to beat up on this week. After this sweep we are 8-1 against them this season.

Webb is now 9-0. Sick.

Justin Upton, the kid is unbelievable. He got buzzed near the head by a couple of pitches by Fuentes and then with a 3-0 count he
. He's got crazy power, amazing speed, and

He doesn't turn 21 until the end of August and he has a .932 OPS right now. FWIW, if the DBacks don't lock him up and buy out some free agency years he will hit the FA market at 26 years and 2 months. The problem with most free agents is that they are past their prime. He'll be at the start of his peak years.

I'm looking forward to the interleague games, I wonder if Melvin will use Micah Owings as the DH when he isn't pitching.
