The Cubbies were rained out yesterday in Atlanta. The two teams are set for a doubleheader today. This will be a day-night affair (game 1 at 12:10 pm and game 2 at 6:15 pm). Marquis goes in game one and Harden in the night game.
Getting a break Monday and Tuesday could be good for this team. Sweet Lou has been hinting at giving Fukudome some pine time, giving Fontenot some playing time and Johnson and DeRosa more time in RF. Either way, I would like to see the Cubs give this Braves team a thumping.
Conventional wisdom says it's hard to win both games of a doubleheader. It seems logically, but it also seems too simple. As with a lot of old gambler adages, it doesn't hold up to the smell test.
EasyBaseballBetting.com gives a nice look at the numbers and some reasons why you may not want to hold to that adage.
