Games of the Day
The Reds visit the Cubs this afternoon as the two staff aces face off at a freezing Wrigley field. Aaron Harang's done every thing right so far this season, keeping the ball in the park, keeping his walks low, and accumulating a high number of strikeouts. Zambrano pitched poorly against the Reds in his first start but better against the Brewers. He's already allowed four home runs on the season.
Two first place teams continue their series as Bonderman and the Tigers face Halladay and the Blue Jays. Bonderman's given up four of the five runs he's allowed this year in the first inning. So far this season, Halladay is dominating left-handed batters, as that group is just 4 for 26 against the righty.
If you like left-handed strikeout artists, tune in to the Devil Rays and Twins tonight as Scott Kazmir faces Johan Santana. The big difference between the two is control and stamina. Eleven of Kazmir's fifteen strikeouts came in the first three innings this season. Santana is pretty consistent inning to inning.
Enjoy!

Actually, it's rather pleasant here in Chicago today.
