I do not believe Richard would be a "world beater." I believe there's a better chance he could give us 5 or 6 solid innings than running Hanmel out there time after time.

thankfully nobody in the cubs organization feels the same

 

Hammel's best start in the past month has been 2ER in 6.1 innings against the Braves. He's been bad for awhile.

do you honestly think richard would be better? I mean he's been better lately but that's in part because his stuff plays up in a bullpen role where he can get more on his FB.

 

Hammel is clearly the more talented pitcher. When you don't have better options you go with the best option available (and one that has been dominant in a SP role at some point this year).

 

Castro!

 

Given that there are only a couple weeks left and how long he's been bad, I'm definitely willing to try something else. Cahill is my preference, though. Or, actually, a Cahill/Richard tandem.

you (and others here) definitely think more of Richard/Cahill than I do. I'd rather see if Hammel can actually pitch like he did for half a season rather than blindly hope either of them can somehow luck their way into a decent start. agree to disagree, i guess.

[expletive] up yet another runner at 3rd, 0 out spot. Wonderful.

 

How are we THIS bad with runners on third and less than 2 outs? Jesus Christ.

 

 

One of the outs was with the pitcher batting, but, yes, one of our hitters struck out. God forbid.

IT'S ALMOST AS IF TAGGING HIM IN THE SHOULDER MEANS HE WAS ALREADY ON THE BASE
