Is Buehrle going to be another example of Chairman Reinsdorf being right about not giving pitchers long-term deals?

 

He have one year left after this season?

Alexei...please stop smiling. That annoys me to no end.

But, it's in your signature area...

Another non-quality start by our starting pitching. That's becoming common place.

I'm so on the trade Buehrle bandwagon right now.

 

Buehrle is what he is. Good hitting teams will beat him up.

 

I think in the NL he would be great.

 

I am more comcerned with Paevy though. Pitching in the AL is light years different than the NL.

Cubs had no problems destroying Edwin Jackson today

Another hit for Kotsay...good to see.

Don't look now but Kotsay has 2 hits leading off.

Beckham's shoulder is flying wide open on every swing.

Gosh, what a disaster he is right now.

Geesh Gordo. At least swing the bat.

been over a month straight now of bad, unprepared, poorly managed "baseball". its probably time to stop putting weight into whether we win or lose games, i know what my eyes are seeing, this is NOT a "turn it around in june/july" team, they're just bad

 

Beckham K's again btw, BAD TEAM.

At least he hit a few foul tips that AB.

Wow, Kotsay is soooooooo slow!

Gosh, what a disaster he is right now.

He's rapidly convincing me that the "Send him down for a stint" plan might be the only option. It's no longer just in his head, his mechanics are totally off.

Great play by Cano to get to that and stay with it.

It was a line drive. He couldn't start running until the ball got past Cano or hit the ground.

Beckham 3 Ks two days in a row.

These guys suck.

It was no where near Cano. No good base runner would have held up. Even the Yankees cast was wondering why he stopped.

Didn't he knock it down?

Agreed, I get happy when they win, but then by the time the next game is through a few innings, all of the bad aspects of the team are present. When your offense stinks, your defense is average, your starting pitching is the most underachieving in the league, and your bullpen is average....you get a bad team. If they don't go on a good stretch next week, this season could be in real jeopardy.

Yup.

If they don't go on a good stretch next week, this season could be in real jeopardy.

They could still salvage things by being on fire in June. But I'm losing faith in ever seeing that. Esp. from the starters.

Agreed, even when he swings, he's just pushing the ball towards the right side. At least a few weeks ago, he was swinging with some authority.

The reason I say next week is cause of the brutal road trip the following week.
