Really need LaStella or Baez up ASAP so Castro can take some
time off. Can't keep his bat in a lineup that struggles so
much. Release Soriano and go with a 5 man bench finally.

Much rather have Richards than Soriano.

I think I'd rather have Edwin Jackson than Soriano.

Another rain delay. Really, this has to be the worst weather
year in Cubs history.

Sounds like this game isn't going to be resumed. Just awful
weather this year.

Hurts losing a Lester start. Really need to take these next
two in Pittsburgh. We can be two games back of the bucs with a
strong showing.

Do both teams have a say a in when a game is made up? Obviously
we wanted no part of a doubleheader in this series with our
rotation depth issues and Richard being dfa'd again.

Lester might start Thursday against the Giants.
I would imagine both teams have a say. The Cubs have 2 open
dates in Sept before they go to Pitt, so that would be my guess.

No. It's strictly up to the home team to set the new time and
date. The only restrictions are the date can't violate the CBA
provisions (I forget the maximum # of days a team can play
without an off-day) without a waiver from the players on both
teams and the game can't be rescheduled to a date the visiting
team already has a scheduled game in another city.
Looking at the Cubs' schedule, they and the Pirates have an
off-day on Monday September 14th before they start a three day
three game series in Pittsburgh. Sunday September 13th the Cubs
finish a series in Philly so expect the rainout to be played on
that Monday if the Cubs & Pirates players are willing to give up
the off-day or the Tuesday September 15th night game will be
made into a split or twilight-doubleheader.
