after a rough start, Marquis wasn't so bad. Hopefully Marmol keeps it at 5.

 

this is like the "marquis isn't so bad for a fifth starter argument."

 

he has a remarkable ability to pitch so poorly that people's expectations go down and anything better than complete disaster is fine.

 

he sucks.

 

i think he meant it could have been worse.

 

which fits exactly with what i was saying.

 

so what you expected him to give up 8 or 9 runs today.... what are looking for. he gave up 5 runs in the first 2 innings then went scoreless in 3 1/3, which means it could have been worse...

 

It's impossible to please abuck.

 

it's impossible to please me by allowing 5 runs in 5 1/3 innings, yes. i'm also not pleased with a $100 mil that hovers around .500. sorry.

 

I'm not just talking about this situation. I'm talking about the Cubs in general. I can't remember you ever saying anything good about anyone not named Rich Hill.

the dbacks always just play good enough to beat us, and great plays that should not happen are just part of all of that.

 

Yeah, I can't wait to leave this place. It's unholy.
