7/15 - Cubs Bring Up Cain, Lincecum; Send Down James, Marshall
To make room for the newly acquired Cain and Lincecum on the roster, the Cubs have sent down left handed pitchers Chuck James and Sean Marshall to AAA. This now unfortunately means there is only one left handed pitcher in the Cubs bullpen (Scott Eyre), and three left handed pitchers overall on the roster.

7/15 - NL Falls to AL in Midsummer Classic Yet Again
The National League has lost once again to the American League in the midsummer classic All-Star game by a final score of 3-2. The National League struck first with two runs in the top of the first, but the American League came back with back-to back homers off Zach Duke in the bottom of the sixth. Alex Rodriguez hit a two-run shot to tie it, and Vladimir Guerrero followed with a solo shot to take the lead, and no one else scored the rest of the game. The Cubs made their presence known with four starters: Aramis Ramirez, Kosuke Fukudome, Geovany Soto, and Carlos Zambrano the starting pitcher. Other Cubs Ryan Theriot, Mark DeRosa, and Reed Johnson also got into the game later. Carlos Marmol and Bob Howry were in the bullpen, but were never used. Now if the Cubs make it to the World Series, they will not have home field advantage.

7/17 - Soriano Returns; Cubs Send Down Kemp
Alfonso Soriano has fully recovered from his broken collarbone that he suffered last month. He is back on the roster and should be ready to play tomorrow, the first game since the All-Star break. The Cubs have sent down outfielder Matt Kemp to AAA to make room for Soriano on the roster.

Thanks guys. It was so awesome. What do you think of me losing the All-Star game? My second loss, but luckily this one doesn't really count. Their pitching stinkin dominated me! Roy Halladay, and this other guy from the Indians, I don't know who just owned my lineup.
