Adbert down (which isn’t a huge deal, 2 off days next week so he can be back for his next start which should be in Pittsburgh the final week) and Rex Brothers up. We are run by [expletive] morons. Rex Brothers hasn’t been good in since 2015. There’s like 5-7 other guys to call up over Brothers. And Vargas and Winkler have no business continuing to be up either.

Ummm I feel like this FO wouldn't bring it up unless they were pretty sure it's happening?

The last time Rex Brothers posted a positive WAR (over meaningful innings) and had sub 3.5 in all of ERA, FIP, xFIP in a season, Kris Bryant wasn’t even in the Cubs organization yet.
