Great, then add a circle change. Make adjustments as a soft tosser or get hit hard as batters catch up. He’s doing fine so far.

He needs some sort of out pitch. The fastball and changeup are good, but I think he could work on something more. He reminds me of Buehrle with how he pitches.

Let’s hope Thorpe’s start is more like Buehrle’s first start of his career and less like Garland’s.

Be loud enough where it makes it to the broadcast and you make that bum Schriffen call you a hater.

Hoping Thorpe doesn’t get shelled and gets either the win or a no decision and they win.

Sure, sell for a discount. Why not?

If it gets some guys out of here in trades and ages Grifol a bit before he gets fired, let’s do it.

Seems like the goal is to slash payroll, be bad, have poor attendance and set up for a move to Nashville. That is what makes sense to me right now.

Aaron Rowand? Brian Anderson? DeWayne Motha Fuckin Wise?

Meh. They should know the Cubs can come back after what Morel did to them last year.

Even though this is a throw away year, I don’t really understand what the goal is as far as getting better. I’m having a tough time understanding Getz’s strategy. Perhaps we will know more by the trade deadline, but this team is garbage and doesn’t make a ton of sense. I don’t like Grifol, but it doesn’t matter who is managing this team with how bad they are. That said, I don’t think the Cubs are very good either.

So is the entire organization.

Game.

For one run?

With the guy they have no confidence in. And whose confidence they shattered.

Flexen was good tonight. I had my daughter sleeping in my arms so I was watching on my phone, but I don’t know why they took him out so early. He didn’t have a high pitch count. Anderson and Banks were garbage tonight and Leasure was meh. Those Cubs bats came to life after rain delays. Too bad they needed a rain delay to win anything. Grifol has to be gone after this year. Right?

Not sure what Moldy told him but Anderson threw a craptastic pitch to a showboaty Morel.

THATS A FEDDE WINNER!

f*** you Cleveland and Naylor!

I didn’t understand Pedro’s moves in the 8th inning. Get the bunt down and get the run home with a sac fly instead of pinch hitting galore.

Free soft drinks in the clubhouse.

Brad Maynard flipped the field and was reliable for a decade for the Bears. Keeping teams in games in a battle over field position makes a difference.

Better DFA him now.

Guys in the mock drafts were laughing at that pick, but I was constantly picking the punter with a fifth round pick in my drafts. Here he is!

“It looks like a prison photo. Would any of you mind smiling? The team did just win?”
