Chicago Cubs baseball!!!

Chavez already looks like a solid pickup.  Throws strikes, which is a huge benefit.  

3.5 up on MIL...it'll be an interesting trade deadline.

Oh look, first inning runs.  

I give up.

What the hell is this guy doing starting a game?  Id have loved to see Underwood or Baldonado.

Hell I’d rather see 54 year old Doug Dascenzo at this point.

Maybe even a little Calvin "the butcher" Schiraldi.  

Bottom line is our pitching as a whole sucks balls.

Problem is, we've got 3 guys with ace potential, and one that has shown up.  I'll give an out to Quintana, since he at least looks like he cares, and can have a phenomenal night at any time.  Darvish..... That guy has the mental fortitude of a psychiatric patient.  Maybe he comes back with an ounce of guts and I eat my words.  Hendricks, if that guy can't hit his spots, it's BP.  When you get to our 4,5,6,7 guys - we have to score 10 runs.

hated that guy but he was the epitome of “economical.” only good part of being at his 300th win was selling my ticket stubs on ebay.

You know it’s gotten bad when you have to bring in Victor f’n Carratini to pitch for you! Hahaha!

Hated Greg Maddux?!?! Said no reasonable person EVER. Greg Maddux was the Tom Hanks of baseball in the 90's. Hating the Braves of the 90's is fine if you want, but Mad Dog? Seems like an attention grabbing statement to me.
