    Hi sorry I missed the first game. The Cubs go for the DH sweep against the Brewers with Jason Hammel who apparently still doesn't know it's the second half. Hopefully he doesn't figure this out for some time. Go Cubs n stuff.

    Hector Rondon is officially good to go tonight per the beat writers.

    So now that the Pelicans look likely to make the playoffs, can they PLEASE send Eloy up?

    I talked to Fred on the phone a couple weeks ago. He's had some health issues, but is still kickin.

    So why exactly isn't Eloy in Myrtle Beach yet?

    Honestly I never felt genuinely comfortable with him being a Cub after that. I'm glad they traded him. I respect your morals. I really do. But in a way you should stop cheering for a team then. Because you are cheering for some bad guys, no doubt. And you don't know which ones those are, yes, but just knowing that there are bad guys in a group and you cheer for the group doesn't make it any better. I suppose you could make the argument that all 25 guys on a roster are close to squeaky clean. But then you are being naive. Buddy, this is still lazy, stupid logic. I guess I should also never have friends, because some of them might be bad. I don't know what secretly goes on in their lives. They could be rapists or pedophiles or murderers. WHO KNOWS! You have to go through life trusting people and even befriending them without knowing what kind of person they might truly be. That said, you probably SHOULDN'T go around trusting and befriending people you KNOW to be those kinds of people.

    Regarding Castro, I'm sure I wasn't this outspoken at the time re: him. I imagine I was pretty bummed. I also don't think I had the same level of appreciation for the implications of what that meant. He certainly went from being one of my favorite Cubs to one of my least favorite. It kinda creeped me out when people were really upset about him being traded. I also kinda find it weird when people still miss him.

    As for Sosa, I'm actually gonna have to claim total ignorance on that front re: him and domestic violence. Cannot recall ever hearing about any, which seems weird if that was the case.

    Did you root for Starlin the last few years? Honestly I never felt genuinely comfortable with him being a Cub after that. I'm glad they traded him.

    Wow some of you posting in this thread are making me real sad. Don't give me this "well some players are bad people and you don't know about it" horse horsefeathers. That's such a piss poor excuse. When you DO actually know about it, that's when you make the conscious decision to not root for (or in the FO's case, acquire) someone. As for "Well Florida never charged him crap: hi have you ever seen an athlete sex/domestic abuse scandal? They are rich and famous and like most celebrities in their position, get away without any actual criminal charges most of the time. Even without the celebrity factor, stuff like this goes uncharged, un-investigated, untried, and unpunished the majority of the time. I'm out for the rest of this crap. Do better, people. You're smarter than that.

    This is the first time I've been really disappointed in this front office. This absolutely sucks on every level.

    Break them.

    Ended up 4-5 with a BB and a K. Not too shabby

    The Cubs basically owe me a sweep where they outscore the Mets by double digits.

    Kyle's career to date: 359 IP, 3.23 ERA, 3.38 FIP, 120 ERA+, 7.5 K/9, 2.1 BB/9

    I'm proud to have him as my doppelganger.

    Can't believe I'm mad about the Futures Game MVP, but here we are.

    EJM is red hot right now. 2 doubles and a walk today.

    Ian Happ with a 10.6% K% at AA in 49 PA heading into tonight's game.

    He's become a real prospect and is already a solid trade piece.
