GDT 7/7/15-Game 1-Cards (Lyons) @ Cubs (Arrieta) 12:20 CDT

This game was punted when the lineup was written.

Agreed. Holliday is with the team, and he should have started. Yadi should be starting both games, even with last night's late finish, so that he could help both of the young, inexperienced pitchers. Marp hasn't been hitting at all since the end of May, but he has to play every inning if he's going to break out of his funk. And they should have traded for Hamels so that we wouldn't have to see Lyons.

Yeah that's what I wrote.


You can't tell me that Matheny didnt think we'd have a better shot tonight, so he gave many regulars a rest today.

And nowhere did I say it was the wrong idea or decision
