Here come the walks.

[UMFan83]

I for one am shocked that Chatwood is starting to implode in the 2nd inning

[Tim]

Well, Chatwood still sucks.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

I agree with what Duker said yesterday. The Cubs needs to see which pitchers have cleared waivers and trade for one of them. Anybody. Chatwood just can't be pitching in these final 42 games in any meaningful situation.

I for one am shocked that Chatwood is starting to implode in the 2nd inning

 

Because you thought he would implode in the 1st inning?

[Andy]

I really missed not seeing this moron pitch.

[stitchface]

Is he out of options? Because he has things to sort out.

[soccer10k]

Don’t bother warming anyone up. Just let him wear it for 100 pitches.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

The question now is, does our sometimes clunky offense have what it takes to not be clunky and score at least four runs?

[UMFan83]

In one inning Chatwood gave up more runs than were scored in the first 2 games of the series by both teams combined.

[Gilby]

How about we develop a pitcher that's worth a damn to take starts like these. That'd be neat.

[Schwarber Fan]

How about we develop a pitcher that's worth a damn to take starts like these. That'd be neat.

 

We have at least 2 on the roster in Chavez and DLR that are better options.

[NotSoSober]

Now that it's only a 2 run game, take Chatwood out

[Tim]

Old man dong

[soccer10k]

Well there’s our solo dong for the day.

[stitchface]

holy horsefeathers! His mechanics are ridiculous. DFA if he doesn't have options.

[raw]

It's almost like Chatwood shouldn't have even started the game. If only there was a way to know this before the game.

[mikeyt34]

holy horsefeathers! His mechanics are ridiculous. DFA if he doesn't have options.

 

Can't he develop a "shoulder issue" which forces him to the 60 day? He can take the rest of the year off and maybe Hickey can salvage something out of him next spring.

[soccer10k]

Another GIDP.

[TMan92]

I am really happy Maddon yanked his ass

[stitchface]

Ankiel him - can he play OF?

[NotSoSober]

Relying on Hickey to save Chatwood is like relying on Chatwood to give you 3 innings

[badger]

Javy!

yeah because hickey has worked such magic with the rest of the staff

[gobigred]

Is baez standing farther away from the plate than usual? He can't hit a pitch that's a strike on the outside of the plate
