Here is my question.....if he is the DH, then pitches an inning, does he remain the DH after he comes out of the game as a pitcher or do we lose the DH as what happens if the DH plays the field?

My guess is that the cubs and Joe agreed that he would retire after this year. I also believe the cubs called Girardi and told him this.

That style of baseball is going to get the DH implemented full time. I read a long story on the opener and never really attributed it to starters third time through the order being the issue and the "opener" allowing the starter to come in and face the bottom of the order three times before facing he top of the order three times.

I didn't say yay Kevin White I said he did do something. Would be nice if he continued to do something moving forward as it would be another good option. Maybe bust is a bit much for Robinson as he isn't paid all that much but he has 11 catches in his last 4 games for 141 yards.

The two picks he threw, the receivers should have worked harder......the two in the end zone offset those as they were terrible throws. Whoever the special teams coach is should be fired. A punt earlier was almost blocked and then then there was the one that actually was blocked. Good to see Kevin White do something as Allen Robinson is looking like a complete bust.

These folks will leave nothing for their kids but also all seem to be able to jump back in if needed. once a bubble bursts they may be screwed. You need fixed income return to live like that.

I have no clue what the rule is I guess what were people supposed to do the ball was over the wall......ah joe west

Sucks that they have to play early today as well.

I see Machado ending up like a Brandon Saad situation Playing hard and playing dirty are vastly different things. Last night was dirty

The best is the tax cuts for billonaires and the democratic candidate for Illinois governor will be the wealthiest governor in the nation if elected and he claims to be a democrat who will tell you of his hardships growing up that 99% of the voters cannot relate to but he will win with about 60% of the vote because Illinois is a complete shitshow. He should not have won the democratic primary but it's Illinois where your vote literally does not count......well maybe in the Chiago mayoral race it will.

Vlad Jr is a monster.

It appeared on my news feed so I opened it kind of pointless to mention the Sox

Jeffress made it close but harder available for 2 tomorrow.

Check the IHSA outlook. They are in 8A as is Simeon. Both could move down but unlikely. The poll of them in 7A is guesstimate. They get hosed with the multipliers.

Rice is still in 8A.....should beat montini missed ya greg

The eye test agrees with PFF.

Yes but all 16 counts are in essence one charge. Also can only be sentenced for 2nd degree murder or aggravated assault. He'll spend about 3 years in prison.

I agree with you and the thing is I am not sure if I am afraid of my and my family's safety, the city and the people, the police, Van Dyke......while I do not want to politicize this but if he is found guilty of 2nd degree or something different those "looking for justice" will not be happy with anything. I also feel bad for him as I cannot imagine having my life in teh balance like that

CPD was told 1:45

Verdict to be released at 2 PM that's a rumor btw

Maddon has won but before we call this cub run anything, the Dodgers have won 6 straight NL West crowns. The cubs won the NL Central twice. That is huge for Chicago but it is nothing earth shattering. A healthy Cleveland rotation and the cub are still chasing that title. The AL has the four best teams in baseball and you could argue the A's and Rays are better than the cubs. Tampa Bay has not missed a beat without him and they are probably better right now then when Joe was there. They won 90 games and had to play New York and Boston 38 times. The NL has been dreadful but is getting better. If Machado and Harper go to the Phillies and San Diego's talent comes along the NL will only continue to be getting better. The Brewers only pitcher to throw over 160 innings was Jhoyls Chacin. I get baseball is going to less reliance on starting pitching but the Brewers literally have none nor do the A's for that matter so maybe bullpens really are the next market correction. The problem, bullpen arms are unreliable, that is why they are in the bullpen to begin with.

After last offseason no way he opts out. Maybe would get 4/48 on open market.

Walk off win here will get them back in a groove. Brewers don't hit cub pitching and Cubs have deeper rotation.

Mack is what Ditka traded his entire draft for way back when. Shit happens but that trade was straight up highway robbery. Going to keep Vic employed and looking like Dick Labeau.

Hopefully another team gets to celebrate on wrigley tomorrow.
