Well, that was a nice turn of events, I guess. The young guys are learning.

Just keep in mind, this win means no more than the no-hitter loss Saturday when it comes to this year. They are not going to cach the Giants. I'm comfortable that the front office is just as aware of that fact as we are. I'll just enjoy whatever the rest of this season brings.


What are they "learning," exactly?

I hear next road trip Maddon is going to bring in a ventriloquist so the Cubs players can learn how to throw their voices when they are bitching at umpires.

Glad I was in the bleachers last night. Weather was perfect. For as pissed as I was after they blew the lead, seeing a walk off winner was great. Plus I was sporting my new Bryant t-shirt, so I had that going for me, which is nice.

So why was Clayton Richard sent down? Dallas Beeler does not look like a major league pitcher and his numbers in AAA don't suggest he is close to being Triple A pitcher.

If Beeler were a bit better, he would be bad.

It is like he is required to spot the other team 4 runs in the first.

I do not particularly find this type of start to be a positive experience.

It's a good thing bullpens don't matter.

The pitch track may show that Rizzo struck out on a pitch an inch or two outside the strike zone, but I don't like a guy not protecting on a pitch that close.

Beeler should walk through the clubhouse head right outside to a waiting bus and promptly get under it.

So in two starts Beeler pitched about 2 innings total.

I have driven the Castro Hatemobile from the beginning and I will happily renew my license until he's launched or murdered or murder-launched.

Bullpens are so important than you get promoted into the starting rotation when you do well, and demoted to it when you don't.
