Right now as I am fighting for one of the bye week spots(This week is pretty much a must win for me, since the team I am playing next week has all six starters with two starts, to only one of mine, so they have five more starts than I will!)
Carrasco has a surprise shoulder ailment throw him on DL, so missed start. If I had known, would have had Yordi Ventura in his spot this week and Yordi is killing it today!
Odor lost a finger nail earlier this week and has not been back. Was off to a great start.
Grandal had a shoulder ailment keep him out until now and looked bad today.
Puig got HAMMYstrung today
Span's back is firing back up and he is siting today
So far, so good though! Leading by 92 points over a team with a full compliment of players going. That being said, after Bumgarner is done with his start today, they will have two starts in hand for the rest of the week. Although, as long as San Fran holds on, Bum will get the win and another 12 points for me! Heck, should be able to pitch one more inning, so the way the Cubbies are striking out today, even more points! Only down side would be Casilla will not have a chance for the save if the score stays the same. Nonetheless, would take two near perfect, dominating starts in the two starts in hand for my opponent to get close again.
