BAYLOR MANAGING: Why was right handed Chris Stynes the starting third baseman on Tuesday night against the right handed Yoshii when the Cubs had the switch hitting Mark Bellhorn on the bench? Especially when coming into the game Bellhorn was 7 for his last 18 at bats.

TUESDAY NIGHT'S GAME: Cubs lose 8-4 to the Montreal Expos. Juan Cruz continues to struggle at times. Chris Stynes was awful. Delino DeShields needs to pay attention on the basepaths.

THE CHIPSTER: Chip informed us before he gave the Cubs line-up that the Cubs had "a lot of former Expos in the line-up tonight." The Cubs had a grand total of two former Montreal Expos in the starting line-up. Delino Deshields and Moises Alou. That is not a lot Chip.
