Nothing wrong with it. Just his ability to make decent contact on meh pitches from lefties isn't going to make or break his resurgence.
-
I thought he looked pretty turdly outside of his first hit.
-
I only want to keep him if it's in concert with a serious offseason attempt to compete in 2015. I don't think he wants to stay, though, and I don't think the Cubs want to keep him. I'd put the odds at under 10%.
-
What an inning for Samardzija. If he's healthy in July, we're going to get so much.
-
Clutch illness from the little one to keep me from having to sit through this turd in the cold.
-
This is our inning. We're tying it here.
-
It's the game thread. Nothing I say here can be held against me, nor can I be asked to justify it. That's how it works. It's in the NSBB Constitution.
-
Being a lefty-masher bench outfielder is like musical chairs. There's a need for them, but there's more guys who can do it than there are jobs, too. He's a worthy big leaguer, but it wouldn't be hard to envision him jobless.
-
Bonny playing like he wants to be part of the "core". Dude, get out of town while you can. I'm irrationally convinced that Epstein and Hoyer packed the team with guys in jobs a step above their abilities just to make sure there's no revolt about how bad the team is. Bonifacio's not going to complain because he's getting 500 PAs when he'd be lucky to get 200 anywhere else. Veras gets to rack up saves. Ruggiano's just happy to be in the bigs.

This is my game thread. I will not let it go down without at least three pages of posts.
-
Darwin Barney has a knack for being exactly as slow as he needs to be.
-
Castro handled that throw in the manner of a man who had never before considered the possibility that a baseball might be thrown at him.
-
Castillo sucks, Castro sucks, Olt sucks, our entire outfield sucks, Barney sucks at hitting, Lake sucks but continues his magical ability to get good results despite his sucking, and Rizzo is kinda average.
-
Olt never touched 3b. That'd be overturned if they had challenged.
-
That would have been a pretty good play if he'd caught it. Or at least realized that he hadn't caught it.
-
rally killed
-
Samardzija's pitch count is going to be a problem. I don't think he's getting into the 7th if he doesn't get better. Edit: DP on the next pitch after I posted probably helps.
-
Barney looks really patient this year.
-
Castro looks good against lefties. FU Marlon Byrd
-
Gonna need to see a pitchfx before I buy that strike three to Bonifacio was on the corner. It looked pretty wide, but this camera angle is brutal.
-
Samardzija's incredulity about that HR was pretty good.

Is The Ricketts Family the worst thing to...

I saw it linked elsewhere as Levine and didn't bother to check the byline. Also, wizard. -

Levine puts a hatchet in Ricketts' back: http://espn.go.com/chicago/mlb/story/_/id/10730513/chicago-cubs-next-step-best-not-ask-owner-tom-ricketts?ex_cid=espnapi_public -
They've faced some roadblocks but they also haven't been as good as they think they are and have made a lot of mistakes. I have a feeling I know which part they'll focus on if things continue to go south.
