7/9 Cubs (Beeler) at Reds (Simon), 6:10 p.m. CDT WGN

[d_money]

Pat said Simon was claimed off waivers from the Orioles. Are they just bad at their own pitcher eval?

[Andy]

If anybody is reading: Lou Mal's or Gino's or neither?

Giordano's. I've never had Lou's but my cousin, who's lived in or near Chicago for a few years, swears by it.

[Schwarber Fan]

This piece of crap is gonna haunt us for 15 years isn't he?

[Clem Fandango]

[expletive] you, Billy Hamilton. Get your teeth fixed

[Hairyducked Idiot]

This piece of crap is gonna haunt us for 15 years isn't he?

 

Pretty soon we'll be winnning 9-4 when he does that instead of losing 4-1.

[Clem Fandango]

Dallas Beeler more like Dallas get him the [expletive] out of there

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Ricky is mad.

[Schwarber Fan]

We're gonna get 5 game-swept. This is appropriate.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Ricky is mad.

 

By which I mean Ricky is standing up for his players so they forget how terrible they are for a few minutes.

[Fro]

time to call up Manny to be manager

Giordanos or Lous

[Hairyducked Idiot]

That's 7 Ks for the guy striking out like 5 per 9 going into tonight.

[ScrubMD]

Before we DFA Olt, we're going to need him to give Hamilton a Nancy Kerrigan.

[davell]

This should shut the door on Beeler getting starts anyway.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

It won't.

 

Maybe it'll shut the door on the "we won't be that bad after we sell off this year" talk.

He's an integral part of "The Plan" the rest of the year. I say he gets at least a few more starts.

[KingCubsFan]

If anybody is reading: Lou Mal's or Gino's or neither?

Giordano's. I've never had Lou's but my cousin, who's lived in or near Chicago for a few years, swears by it.

Anything but Giordano's. It's far and away the worst.

He's an integral part of Project Tank.

yeah, i'd give beeler, wada, hendricks and maybe jokisch at least a few starts each. good time to figure out if any of these guys can be a solid back-end starter.

Beeler's like 7th on the depth chart for SP even after the trade, the only reason he's getting this 2nd start is because of double header timing and the desire to start Straily for a little while in Iowa. Especially with that outing that didn't have any redeeming value(well, no HR I guess?) I'd put real good odds at him not starting again this year.

So all we need is one more trade and one injury and it's Beeler from here on out.

Yes, all we'll need to do is turnover 80% of the rotation in a one month span and Beeler may be in line for consistent starts. As long as they don't decide to stretch out Grimm(or Villanueva for that matter) or give Jokisch a shot since he can strike guys out.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

I think they like Beeler a little more than you think they do. I'm not completely convinced they have Wada ahead of him. Maybe I'm crazybuckets.

1) Giordano's is good

2) Lou Malnati's is good

3) Gino's is good

4) It's pizza, it's always good. Don't over think it

I was referring more to the unintentional, intentional tank plan the rest of the year. But also what you said, though more so for Wada and Hendricks. Beeler is garbage.
