Tell you what, if the Rays hadn't rallied today to end a personal mini-slump, I was going on a Macaulay Culkin-like sabbatical; since Home Alone, seriously, anything other than one episode of the Righteous Gemstones? The Cubs generally do well in these Friday matinees and frankly they need it right now after an ugly road trip. I'm not super-huge on a pitcher's career splits against a team unless all fairly recent. That said, Reds starter Graham Ashcraft has some Weight Watchers first-timer caloric numbers against the Cubs in his fairly brief career.
