Nice inning for Marshall. Why did we get rid of him again?

Because a rebuilding team doesn't need an expensive set up guy who will rarely set up anything.

This "rebuilding" shit is getting old. They should buy some guys next year. We can't possibly just wait and hope for these young dudes to pan out can we?

Go to MLBTR and look at the free agent list and tell me who you're going to buy. I think we've been over this at least seven times on this board since I've joined up.

The starting pitching crop looks nice but if you're going to pay through the nose for pitching but still have a shitty lineup...then that just seems like a waste of time and money, doesn't it?

You're right. There isn't much that stands out. I am just impatient and sick of this team being shit.

Marshall is not very nice to the Cubs.

He's properly thanking them for letting him go to a better team by helping them in the draft race :D

Remember when Clevenger was hitting .500 or something? Yeah...

Yeah, I still kind of like him though. Maybe just because of that hot start, and I haven't found a way to not like him yet...

He has been the best one out of our pen lately, surprisingly. Though I am not trying to jynx him or anything.
