The obsession with prospects is great for fans of this terrible losing Cub organization.

They are unhappy, Joe Orr. After all, only a few select teams in MLB can take a 25 year old multiple All Star and turn him into a middle reliever.

This is actually true. They were never, ever "hyped" as anything special. I believe even the Soxiest of fans Keyser Soze was cautiously optimistic about Montas.

You are off to a terrible start this morning.

You should agree with me more. You would end up being correct a lot more often.

Now, what's for breakfast?

Need to go bring my radio in to be fixed, because someone has been on that darn thing for the previous 2 years talking about Micah Johnson being the future starting 2B and leadoff hitter, with 50 SB's as a no brainer. Damn thing must be broken.

That doesn't sound very good at all. Be sure to take your imaginary radio to the imaginary repair shop that is located in Fantasyland.

I'd watch a Sopranos type show called "The Reinsdorf Family" about Jerry, Kenny, Greg, Zoraida, Robin, Harold etc

Keyser hated Montas. I am a fan. you got a guy who can throw 100 with reasonable control and a slider. "bad mechanics!!"

who cares as long as it works?

'Fun' if you like watching a couple of three-legged rams fight.

Hate is a little strong. I just don't think he'll be a starter because of his bad body and bad mechanics. Bad mechanics matter because they lead to bad or inconsistent command or injury. I'm fine giving up a reliever for a power hitting/good defensive third baseman.
