Why not both? We can do a piggyback system and it won't hurt, imo. I'm not sure if you're joking, but based on both of their past performances on days when we need them to go deep to protect a taxed bullpen, it wouldn't be such a bad idea. Half joking, half serious. I don't know why more teams in the majors do it more often, but, at the same time, I'd imagine it would be a bit of a pain to time things like warming up properly.

But he'll probably be facing Jason Marquis and a tapped Cubs pen...so.. Their bullpen is just as shot as our own is. I'm more worried about the Philadelphia series at this point.

I have yet to decide how much I hate the bullpen.

I want to die.

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

This just in: Dae-Eun Rhee is awesome. 5 IP, 1 ER, 3 H, 7/0 K/BB so far.

Z will forever be my all-time favorite Cub if he comes through here.

Quick, post overreactions and ridiculous assertions about Kerry Wood's manhood here!

Seriously, eff Jason Bay.

This is Marmol's fourth straight game, to boot.

Penis.

Osoria's gameday pic has awesome goggles.

Koyie Hill

GIDeroP coming up.

Oddly enough, Duke has 3 fewer pitches than Dempster so far.

Those growlers keep getting worse and worse as you get older.

It's been about an hour and ten minutes and we're already halfway through the game.

Reed Johnson will eventually slump and Pie will eventually start seeing more playing time. I'm not overly worried.

Don't DP, Reed.

Just do as I do and pretend he never existed in the first place.

Who knew Robert Castellini and David Glass were actually the Duke brothers? http://assets.espn.go.com/photo/2006/1106/nhl_pp_dukes_275.jpg

I post on message boards for other teams. *Shrug*

Has Bill Plaschke turned on him yet?
