Six terrific innings from Lackey, and Joe is making the move.

It's Playoff Joe!

:)

Why not let Lackey bunt and pitch one more?

Last start for Lackey in a Cubs uniform, couldn't ask for a better way to go than a division clinching win in St. Louis

Kudos to John Lackey who was lambasted here many times including calls for early retirement or being DFA'd. Should the Cubs hang on here tonight....since the 4th of July...in games Lackey started...the Cubs will have gone 12-2. Pretty damn kickass no matter where you are in the rotation.

Indeed. I was a guilty party on the Lackey bashing. Awesome post all star run. Well done Mr Lackey.

We may be prematurely writing him off for postseason.

Mr Duensing needs to get it back together for the playoffs. Been pretty shaky after solid early on.

Yeah, well I think it was just a matter of time for him. I never thought he had the stuff to be doing what he was doing early on. I thought Joe used him well, but if you pitch long enough....eventually you become who you really are.

How can a guy hit when standing on the balls of his feet so exaggeratedly?
