    His last 5 starts: .143 .368 .143 .511 Clearly still in a bit of a slump, but a pretty significant difference from the line you're reaching back to.

    It's all the same thing.

    Well, he's only had four starts this year, so eliminating one start is significant. In his three other starts he's had good K numbers, but has allowed too many baserunners and thrown too many pitches. Two quality starts one taking him 119 pitches to go six innings. His contract probably unfairly plays into the impression. Hearing the Cubs management stating the move to the pen was an attempt to add mph to the fastball doesn't help the perception either. If it takes him 119 pitches, it takes him 119 pitches. The idea that he shouldn't be in the starting rotation is dumb.

    Hill doesn't sleep. He just creepily stands in the middle of the room, staring at his zombie fingers.

    I don't understand the talk about Z like he was nothing but horrendous in his starts this year. You subtract that disastrous opening day and he was more than serviceable as a starter.

    ALL STAND NOW AND REMOVE YOUR DUTCHBOY CAPS FOR THE BELGISH NATIONAL ANTHEM:

    The Belgish emperor actually is a bicycle.

    Seriously, I don't understand how people can think otherwise. add sprinters to the list. there's absolutely no way usain bolt isn't on something, he went from average to greatest of all-time real quick. michael phelps, too. actually, all athletes in general are under suspicion as far as i'm concerned. Suspicion of being awesome. EMBRACE THE AWESOMENESS.

    Exactly. Colvin isn't going to net much at this point.
  11. Sammy Sofa
    Yeah, that was hysterical. What a chump. What happened? http://pittsburgh.pirates.mlb.com/video/play.jsp?content_id=8168241
  12. Sammy Sofa
    Uh, yes he can. If people honestly think the Cubs have a worst case scenario bullpen already, they're in for a serious reality check.
  13. Sammy Sofa
    Yeah, that was hysterical. What a chump.

    I grade this move thusly: http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l2jaouHrrA1qztjn5o1_500.gif

    And you're basing this on...what, exactly? A quick look at his recent posts reveals that indycub thinks our rotation is completely awful. I don't get it. He was also the guy who tried a weird "told ya so" tangent in regards to Castro where he tried to paint things like people didn't like him or weren't a fan of him before he came up.
  16. Sammy Sofa
    Me too.

    When the initial report came out, CSN said that Howry would join the Cubs this weekend in Arlington. This is what I was reacting to. If he signs a minor league deal and heads to Iowa and starts there without affecting the big club right away, then i'm ok with the signing. But CSN saying "he was heading to Texas" didn't sound like that. Eh, even then I'm not too worried. If he keeps performing like he has this year I doubt he'll last long, even with Lou's man-love for him before. If he can and Rothschild can figure something out and get him back to how he was pitching last year it'll be a decent pick up. I mean, ideally I wish they hadn't tried any of these crap heap options before trying more of their in-house options, but as it stands this isn't necessarily something to get worked up over.
  18. Sammy Sofa
    I'm confident. I'm also guessing that we see a pretty crappy lineup. Castro is due for a day off and Soto will no doubt sit with it being a day game after a night game.
  19. Sammy Sofa
    Or they just wait to try and sign him when he's a FA.

    This Yankees/Rays game on ESPN is [expletive] shameless. The Yankees are getting clobbered 10-2 and Berman and Sutcliffe are calling it like a [expletive] funeral, as if this is some brutal, unfair slaughter we should be mourning and jeering the Rays for being so mean to the Yankees. I've been watching for over 20 minutes and basically NO talk of the Rays. They're killing time talking about how great and caring the Yankees are and their visits to Walter Reed hospital and [expletive] like that. It's absurd.

    This could be the time to sell high on Gorzo. Surely if nothing else we could get a less bad reliever than Grabow or Howry for him. There are a lot of teams out there who could use another solid starter, adn even if Silva falls off a cliff, we still have Diamond, Cashner, and Jax all waiting in the wings. Just stop. You're way to eager to either overpay for unavailable relievers or overpay for medicore relievers. You just said yourself they have 3 guys waiting for a turn in the bullpen. Why the [expletive] would you advocating wasting Gorzelanny like that?
  22. Sammy Sofa
    Ugh, Marmol's totally wild.
  23. Sammy Sofa
    YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!! Way to go, Nady.
  24. Sammy Sofa
    Negative x-rays for Gorzelanny. Good news!
  25. Sammy Sofa
    Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh my [expletive] God. I HATE LOU.
