Former Chicago Cubs players Kerry Wood and Ryan Dempster will fill in for television color analyst Jim "JD" Deshaies over the weekend. Deshaies will not being able to cover the following two games because he will be in attendance for the graduation of his daughter Kelly.

Wood will do the color commentary on Friday while Dempster will get his shot on Saturday on CSN Chicago. Both games will start at 1:20 p.m. CDT and it should be really entertaining to listen to two former Cubs standouts.

Will Ryan Dempster break out his Harry Caray routine on Saturday for Cubs fans? I'm not sure but you will have to watch to find out.
