Doubleheader From Hell

Due to the rain-induced cancellation of the return of Mark Prior, Wednesday will witness a doubleheader at Wrigley starring the 2 most overrated starting pitchers of our time: Mark Prior aka the most prominent victim of the Curse of Having Dusty Baker as Your Manager & Kerry Wood who has yet to win more than 14 games in a season and still cannot grasp the difference between pitching and throwing. Less charitable sorts might describe the doubleheader duo as being Mary Prior and Carrie Wood.

Hopefully, the slaughter at the hands of the Padres will last no more than 6 hours and then perhaps GM Hendry will set about trying to find bona fide starting pitching for the offense starved team. Speaking of offense, did you see that Sammy Sosa has in his last game hit a Home Run & a Triple and by doing so made the difference between winning and losing for his new team, the Baltimore Orioles?

True. But he also had offensive support which made it a lot easier.
