Re today:Bruce Sutter threw a splitter, Dick Tidrow did not.
-
Are you looking for a retainer from Tommy Hottovy?
-
And who is the closer? Carlos Marmol?
-
A southern Illinois Cub fan - with plenty of exposure to the Cardinals. Whitey Herzog passed away last night at 92 years. He was certainly an innovative manager and baseball exec who brought speed back to the game in the sixties. I wish I knew his evaluation of PCA.

Are you an orthopedist, can you cite data that ligaments develop strength as a pitcher ages?
-
Deathball? - this might be excessive hype.
-
Thats sturdier.
-
Switch to the Pirates - they have a superior winning record and a 100 mph prospect who seems surdier than most of them.
-
Donald Trump had data to prove he was the smartest investor of all time last week, now maybe not so much.
-
Why the label "mid-rotation"? Must a pitcher have 100 mph velocity to be considered "top of the rotation?" Greg Maddux was mid-rotation? Justin Steele is mid-rotation? Fernando Valenzuela was mid-rotation?

Poppa Joe will love this - paying all those bowlers to play a kid's game is not a wise use of money anyway.

Early-season trends that may or may not end up meaningful
Guest234 replied to Bertz's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
The trend so far is Tigers versus Pirates in the WS - no one will lose. Kind of an early hot take. -
Triple negative? Very similar to what Killian did his first time up, and has not erased as yet.
-
Well he has a cow flop ERA now.
-
Who is catching the blame for this poor roster constuction? The leash is shortened for Jed.
-
Interesting to note that DJ LeMahieu and Anthony Rizzo will man the corner infield spots for the Yankees, better than the Cubs? Past glory versus maybe potential.
-
The budget rule is spend what you bring in but do not bite into the family money earned in other enterprises (Poppa Joe's money).
-
This is why grades are not assigned as percentages - allows some nuance that cannot be quantified.
-
The team belongs to the Ricketts family, Tom walks the dog but he does not decide how much to feed it by himself. It is Poppa Joe's money, he made it, and he has other interests besides baseball. Fans and followers need to take that into account.
-
How well does David Bote have to hit to be considered?
-
Wisdom demonstrated something last night.
-
As they say "The proof is in the Pudding", lets take the temp about mid-May.
-
No doubt that Craig Counsell is and has been a very good manager - but extreme plaudits for deploying Josh Hader and Devin Williams might be a bit rich.
-
Bellinger is no longer a plus center fielder? Really - based on "data"?
