Is he more aerodynamic or less because he isn't wearing pants?

Depends on… you know what, nevermind. 

[JHBulls]

The only pitcher who could give back an entire five run lead is pitching. And… Clench! 

[Soul]

What?!?

Where has this Pressly been all year

Since his really-bad-no-good-bummer-of-an-extra-innings-appearance Pressley has a 17.8 K%, 10 BB%, a 0.00 ERA and a 2.94 FIP.

[BKHoo]

I can’t believe I am going to say this - Pressly looked REALLY good. 

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Pressly since his blowup outing: 8 IP, 7 H, 0 R, 8/3 K/BB

[We Got The Whole 9]

Pressly was phenomenal 

[Geographyhater8888]

Rockies are now 9-50 with a record 22 consecutive series losses.

WTF was that?  A clean, I don't what's the nickname for striking out side inning for Pressly?  What, that's his second or third clean inning all year?

[Derwood]

Well, we'll always have the McGuire game....

Cubs need to upgrade from Brujan,  he really provides nothing for them.

Berti has the base stealing ability

Turner gives them the veteran presence ala Grandpa Ross.

They need a guy who can actually provide some pop and hit a little off the bench

And apparently has been a great mentor to Palencia.

Great, he'll be out a couple weeks now...

Who comes up to DH, maybe Jonathan Long

 

Seriously you are like that reporter who gets a little bit of information and then goes with a scoop not caring to fact check it or not. Every now and then he is right. But usually not. You went from the injury has to happen on his AB after the slide in the first inning to now saying he will be out weeks with a finger injury. Why. It just wait and see what actually happens instead of trying to be the first to say anything? 

[Tryptamine]

results aside, I am really not impressed with what I'm seeing out of Brasier.

The contact the Rockies handed out to KB (7/$182M) is more expensive in AAV than any contract the Cubs (8/$184M to J-Hey) have ever handed out. Make it make sense.

Brasier trying to make this interesting...please don't.

I will always love KB but wow did we ever dodge a bullet there.
