Last year it was feast or famine with the offense. This year pitching. It'd be nice if they could all get on the same page, we'd have a lot more games like yesterday. On a good note, Edwards picked up the W and Duensing got the save for Iowa last night.

I agree with this Wob. Just had the same conversation the other day. A start is considered a “quality start” after 6 innings (other metrics involved, I know). Ask Nolan Ryan if 6 innings was a quality start for him!

the same guy who once threw 235 pitches in a game? the guy who threw 164, five days after throwing 150....at age 42?

Yes sir! Quite a whirlwind start to the season. I think Javy is officially the full time SS. When Russell gets back, it will be interesting to see if he's used as a "super utility" or 2B or surely he would make a good OF. We'll have to wait until they call him up from AAA now I guess.

Also still scared shitless about the shaky ass bullpen. Ending April with our oft-injured closer saying he "believes he will pitch again this season" is not an overly encouraging thing to hear.

I'm not too worried about the bullpen as a whole nor it's individual units, but Morrow is about as lost as a lost cause can get. Of all the dumb signings the Cubs have made over the years, whether it was Hendry with Soriano or Hoyer with Heyward & Darvish, Morrow might be the dumbest signing we've made. Has the guy even pitched since he became a reliever because it sure doesn't feel like he's done much but be injured for half a decade. At least Soriano, Heyward, & Darvish have suited up, played, & for the most part contributed in some way.
