If Pie actually got cut from a DWL team my expectations for his MLB career just plummeted.

He didn't. The Cubs had asked him to cut short his season so he wouldn't be tired come spring training.

Or maybe the Cubs just wanted to give him a face-saving excuse to walk away and quit embarrassing himself. Probably a smart thing for the org. to do.

Pie stopped in early December last year, as well.

The Cubs said that in October, so that means they can see into the future.

Marmol is truggling a little bit. I wonder if it's time for him to rest that arm before the season starts.
