    What do we need another SP for? Every single one has done his job. Looking into a Playoff Rotation are you comfortable with anyone we have as our #3 starter. Zambrano is great, Lilly is solid, but after that I am little uncertain. Hill could easily run away with it with a solid August and September, but right now its anyone guess. I wouldn't pay a lot for another reliever unless the Reds demand Marshall in the Griffey or Dunn trades. Otherwise I'm fine with a Z, Lilly, Hill for the top three and then if Hill shows any sign of struggling, you've got Marquis and Marshall available in the pen. I'd say any of those three would be dependable for three innings or so. If we got a starter handed to us on a silver platter, though, I'd definitely be very interested. :D Won't happen... doesn't look like any good ones are going to be available. Mike Maroth just might be one of the best SP's dealt this year. What we have is better than what's going to be better. that would be the mike maroth who is 0-3, 8.17 ERA with a 57 ERA+ and 1.81 WHIP for St. Louis

    to be fair, his ERA is under 4.00 again after today, but yeah, he's not exactly a world champion 3rd starter Well to be even more fair, he's never been asked to be a No. 3 starter. He's been a pretty good number 5 guy IMO. Some days he gets rocked, some days he's OK, some days like today he's really good. Take a look at most teams fifth starter, not too many have an ERA under 4. Again, I'm not betting anything on any of his starts, but for a fifth starter he's been pretty good. how many teams have their 5 starter locked up for 3 years/21 mil it's sad to say but that will be the norm really soon for a fifth starter. Contracts are getting really out of control. e.g. Meche 11M per year a little much, yes, despite his career best 127 ERA+ so far

    it's the symbiotic relationship between the #3 spot and a Cub wearing #17

    Nope, it's for Glendon Rusch when he pitched well those first two seasons he pitched with the Cubs. Don't think I'm going to change it either. too bad....was hoping the word filter got you He's been Rusch33 for a couple years now. no one gets my joke, that's cool People got it. It just wasn't that funny. um, your mom's not funny? /got nuthin

    their "easy games against TB" will result in going like 1-3 against them

    off topic, but I wonder if Rusch33's screen name was really supposed to be something else....

    is there a certificate of authenticity? cuz all his balls are marked, and it could have been a foul ball from any park that he has played in the past few months

    So their fans can come at 8:30 and only miss 2 innings fixed

    i'm suddenly filled with the urge to sign up for that site and rub it in

    Not even worth responding to. EDIT: Actually, I'll respond. The player is going to be someone who's not on the 40 man. So, that rules out Duke. Although, the way Duke has pitched this season... my buddy in Pittsburgh just IM'ed me and said the rumor is on the radio there too. Just because you don't want it to happen, Jake, doesn't mean it won't. Face up that you have one of the worst GM's in baseball history

    the players only have a Ken Caminiti-like future to look forward to, so I hope it was worth it for them

    Regression to the mean. He's far, far more likely to produce in the second half at the level he's produced at over his previous 4000 at bats than he is to produce at his level of production over his last 200. if only baseball were hard and fast as statistics would like you to believe btw, his second half OPS is only 30 points higher than his 1st half over his career
