  1. I don't think its going to happen yet. First of all, there are only 2 lefties in the pen, him and Wood. Wood seems to be viewed as the '6th starter' so if Richard is DFA'd and a starter goes down, we have no lefties in the pen. For whatever reason, managers all feel compelled to have lefties in the pen even if that lefty is bad and can't get lefties out. As far as Iowa goes, Concepcion and Zastryzny are options but neither are on the 40 man. Giovanni Soto is on the 40 man but isn't exactly lighting it up.
  2. If Richard is still on the team I want his party room privileges revoked.
  3. Yeah well at least our hit was legit Dodgers
  4. Just an all around shitty game. Jake is the only player on the Cubs roster that didn't have a poor game.
  5. sorry Jake, Joe decided to use his 3 worst relievers to back up your 7 shutout innings Edit: or 3 of 4 depending on how you feel about Wood after yesterday
  6. Funny observation but one was on a holiday afternoon with perfect weather and today was a wet weeknight evening. Fair enough. Still, we gave up 2 runs from Jake and the back of our bullpen. We'd take that, especially against the dodgers, pretty much every day. Yep but it really comes down to wondering why our worst overall player was coming into a tie game in the 8th inning after your ace gave you 7 stellar innings. Joe will say matchups but Richards sucks against everyone so
  7. This is almost the exact opposite of yesterday
  8. Miggy should start tweeting #theyaregood
  9. Funny observation but one was on a holiday afternoon with perfect weather and today was a wet weeknight evening.
  10. Just not our night at the plate. Can't get anything at all going.
  11. We really need to get better relievers beyond Rondon Strop and Grimm. I know it's a luxury to have good Middle relievers but we don't have a ton of other holes to fix right now.
  12. I mean, in a game where the Cubs have like one hit there is blame to go around. Not "like" one hit. One hit
  13. That was still worse, but this is close, if they don't get rid of Richard, there's a serious mental block somewhere... I don't think they will until they find another lefty
  14. Dumbest Joe decision since he elected to not walk Goldschmidt in April
  15. These lefties are really confused by Richard.
  16. Shitty reliever gives up a lead off hit. Shocker
  17. CJ Edwards should be pitching right now. Not this has been
  18. Lmao Opponents are batting .342 against Richard
  19. Nevermind the great Clayton Richard coming in to blow the Cubs 24 game winning streak in Jake starts
  20. No no no no Joe. Does extending Jake in a May game really make sense
