The Cubs are off today before their six game home stand that leads them to the All Star Break. When they resume play tomorrow night against Cincinnati, I will be in the stands. I am taking my three boys to see the game. We got lucky and we'll get to see Dempster as a starter, live in person, for the first time.
At about the same time, one hour to the north, CC Sabathia will be making his first start for the Brewers. His acquisition has the baseball world rumbling about the Brewers challenging the Cubs for NL Central supremacy. Jayson Stark did a nice job of debating the issue, and ended up defending the Cubs.
It will be breakneck pace from here on out. After the All Star break, the Cubs won't get another day off until August 7th, and only six total the rest of the way. If Sabathia is what the Brewers need, and the Cardinals keep defying logic, this will be an exciting September.
