Don't the Cubs get to call up a reliever for the double header?

 

I believe so, but they didn't know about the double header until late last night and Iowa is in Tacoma, so odds are logistics would prevent anyone from being in town and available til game 2

Duane Underwood Jr is the probable starter for Iowa. I think he makes sense in this situation. (I know you hate him.)

you can't keep running this guy out there

I really hope Monty can keep being good so we have no choice but to mothball this dude when Darvish comes back.

I am against booing players on your own team, except Chatwood. He horsefeathering sucks and continuing to pitch him is a morale killer for a team of actual good players to play behind. There's no upside here, there never was and they need to admit their horsefeathering mistake and move the horsefeathers on.

Chatwood has had two absolutely terrible calls go his way already.

 

I'm assuming we didn't call up a 26th guy? We're in trouble if Chatwood does his normal thing and then we have rain delay issues for Monty tonight.

 

There's a third terrible call to get the K.

Right there with you. I flat out hate this guy.

Yeah, he needs an extended stretch in AAA. Is there some veteran innings eater we can pick up for cheap to bridge the gap until Darvish comes back?

Might get out of this on just 30 pitches. Could be in line for a strong 3-inning performance.
