    I don't think it can be said enough times how badly we got our asses handed to us and how amazing Howard was to keep us in it. Just ridiculously amazing play.

    You think the guy calling out the rooftop owners is a tool? How so? Just general layweryness or what?

    Is Black still looked at as primarily a pen guy or has he changed any minds about that with his performance this year?

    Did we know this? http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2014/06/cubs-notes-bryant-schwarber-trades-samardzija.html

    He only threw 120 (6 more than his career high) and he's going to get an extra day of rest since they've got an off day this week. I'm not terribly worried about it. To be honest, as others said in the game thread, I was kind of glad they got a hit when they did so he didn't end up throwing 140.

    Manny probably told him to hit it over the fence this time.

    Arrieta is getting interviewed on MLBN: "After sucking for so long in the Orioles organization.........it feels good."

    Man, he is just relentlessly pounding the bottom of the zone.

    This is without a doubt my favorite one from that game. At no point is that thing anywhere near being a strike, but Bell just goes ahead and jacks at it anyway. The one where Alou walks away shaking his head is pretty good too.

    Why not? Over $250K issue?
  12. mul21
    A 15:1 K:BB ratio is good right?

    He just got screwed on what should have been strike 3 looking to Bogaerts.

    We wouldn't have Feldman if we had Tanaka. Wait, what? Feldman signed the year before Tanaka was posted. He means Hammel.

    What is this about? I was busy stuffing my face with Portillo's and missed it.

    Considering it was a regularly scheduled DH, would it not have made sense to line up the guy you wanted to make the start instead of just relying on whose turn it was by the time it happened? I think it worked out okay. They got 6 innings of 1 run ball from Beeler and got to see what he looked like against ML hitters.
  17. mul21
    Well, geez, I guess he should hit more homers and will the Cubs to the playoffs so he can rack up meaningless cliches on his resume like Garza. Moron.
  18. mul21
    Yeah -- I thought it was strange that Beeler started the other day over him, especially when Wada was just placed on the 40 man last week too. I think the consensus was that had to do with scheduled days to pitch more than anything else.

    I don't think it really matters at this point. Send him and let the manager in Iowa worry about it. Bring up Alcantara and maybe even Valaika or Watkins to get somebody with potential to hit in there instead of Barney. I've tired of his act.

    Screw around with his hitting approach and watch him struggle all year? I was more under the impression that they basically told Starlin to be Starlin this season and he's gone back to the player we knew and loved. I think they have told him that, but I think he picked up some valuable tools last season. His power has definitely come with him maturing and filling out, but I think his approach is a lot better than it was even in his best season. He's probably not ever going to walk a ton, but it looks to me like he's using a better approach to get himself into more favorable counts now. If he hits .290-.300 with an OBP of .340 and hits 20ish HRs every year, that's a hell of a valuable (and cheap) SS.

    looking for an american girl doll? While I'm sure my 6 year old would love that, they're only giving away clothes and not a doll. None of which I was aware of until I just looked at the promotion.
  22. mul21
    Does anybody have a couple tickets available to either of the Saturday games this weekend?
  23. mul21
    I would imagine optioning him back to Iowa would be a problem and since it's just a one day thing Beeler is getting the call. Once Hammel and/or Shark are gone I'd bet Wada is the first option since it would be more of a rest of the season type situation.
  24. mul21
    He's in Australia.

    I wish the Cubs would take themselves a little less seriously and do stuff like that. The best part of that is the Wendy Peffercorn is a Dime shirt though. I need one of those.
