Great strike 2 or greatest strike 2?

WELLINGTON CASTILLO.

Really? You're gonna bunt there instead of trying to hit a fly ball?

Wow Matheny. Thanks for that gift.

You still have not enough pitching and Olt isn't becoming a legit starter. He's just keeping the seat warm for Kris Bryant.

NSBB 2004-2011: We need to rebuild. NSBB 2012-2014: BAWWWW Why are we rebuilding?!?!

Can we sign Dempster to close again? He seemed pretty free yesterday.

Swing at ball 4. Good start.

WTF

Brian Schlitter? More like Brian [expletive].

Pissed in Renteria's cornflakes.

I will take Dempster in his current form over Edwin Jackson. Go get 'em, Jed.

Hmm. Maybe this team can hit .500 if Castro and Rizzo perform.

Dempster is at the game, sitting in the bleachers.
