With all of the personnel moves that need to be made in the next few weeks (Barrett's suspension, Wood & Prior's return, Lee's return, etc.), Hendry has to DF Rusch or find someone who will give us a used resin bag for him (while we pay his salary). Len & Bob were discussing the possibilities of using Nevin as the backup catcher. I can't believe that Soto won't be called up. With a weakened Wood and Prior, I would think that Dusty is going to need a long bullpen to the detriment of our "powerful" offense. Playing with a 24 man roster and holding a spot for Rusch is ridiculous. Today's loss has to be chalked up to Dusty for starting Rusch. All of us predicted that he would be gone by the 2nd inning with the wind blowing out.

I'm amazed he only gave up one dinger. Detroit didn't bring their A offense today.

I conceded today's game before it even started. With Rusch starting, everybody could see the result a mile away. Everybody except our moron manager, that is.

 

With today's performance, I think even Dusty, as idiotic as he is, would have to recognize that Rusch cannot start any more. Somebody has to be removed from the 40-man roster to make room for Prior. The logical (in other words, not what the Cubs will do) move would be to admit a mistake and get rid of Rusch.
