	Well, behind Ryan Dempster's outstanding performance, the Cubs took 3 of 4 from San Diego, 3 of 3 from Arizona, and now they get three AT HOME against the Pirates, who the Cubs are a perfect 6-0 against this season, outscoring them 52-24...we also don't have to face Ian Snell, probably their best starter. (Oh and by the way, we have three more against the Pirates to end next week, as well). In between series we get the second place Houston Astros...we end the month against the struggling Dodgers and Rockies...if all goes well, our division lead could be significant come the start of June. Go Cubbies!!!

	Nice outlook but I take each game at a time. It's a better approach. Worry about the record after the month is over. Here's to Gallager's next start.

	True, true...but you can't tell me you like that schedule to end the month too! Obviously anything can happen from game-to-game...we'll see what happens!

	i dont see anything wrong with zackey being a little excited with the upcoming scedule. I dont think lou piniella and the Cubs would be overly concerned if one fan is looking into the future. so who are we to tell him how to look at the scedule.

	Good call Zacky, with that schedule it is a great time for the Cubs to maintain some momentum and gain some confidence. I am especially hoping for our promising young starter Shawn Gallagher to get a couple quality starts over this stretch.

	I for one am also excited about the currert state of affairs with this team. We are really starting to click. A few weeks ago people were wondering when Sori or A-ram was going to start hitting and that has began to change. We have such a great depth of players right now. With D Lee in a mini slump we are still able to score alot of run. I just hope those Astros slow down. It will be a good match up next week when we visit Houston.

	This Pirate team has been playing some good baseball as of late. And that Astros team is red-hot, so it's going to be interesting for the Cubs if they can maintain their pace.

	I am just upset that I went to Tuesday's game and we lost. Other than that, these Cubbies are on fire and pitching gems. Let's just not blow our lead like the Mets did last year. It's still early.

	Oh man GSH!! Never mention the Cubs possiblity of blowing a lead in the standings with the Mets in the same sentence, bad mojo! I wasnt even alive in '69 and the thought of the Cubs blowing it and having the Mets overtake them is depressing. Come on Cubbies, this is our year!
