Quick Look at Tonight's Matchup

I know I said I wouldn't be around today, and I'm not going to be, but I wanted to take a quick look at the pitchers in tonight's Cards/Cubs game and how they've fared against the opponent.

Adam Wainwright goes for the Cardinals.  He's faced the Cubs a few times.  Aramis Ramirez has done well against him, including the only home run he's allowed, and Ryan Theroit is hitting close to .500.  Wainwright's been able to keep Derrek Lee in check, though he's walked him three times.

Rich Hill is the Cubs starter.  Most of the Cardinals haven't faced him all that often, but both Pujols and Glaus have touched him for a home run.  On the whole, though, the team hasn't done much in the batting average department against Hill.

Could be a low scoring game if both pitchers come to play.

Also, John Mozeliak is chatting on the official site today.  Someone ask him which blogs he reads!

That's it for me.  Remember, the UCB project is tomorrow!
