Wow....this Richard is meat. Easy to see why Pitt let him go.
Why i said after his start that i wasn't overly impressed and figured it may be his last start as a cub barring injury and he goes to Iowa..

Granted he being pressed into the game tonight but big difference between Marlins hitters and Cardinals....

He didn't have proper rest either. Cards hitters have been atrocious. He is just hanging balls up there.

No.. why im not gonna totally dog him tonight
But I do think his better days are behind him

He may end up being an effective middle/ long reliever at some point...

That was beautiful. Rizzo works a 12 pitch beauty and Bryant crushes one for a triple. That combo is going to be around for awhile.

Does Soler know all he has to do is get the bat on the ball to drive in a run???

Cubs coaches need to work on this shit - EVERY player struggles with this.

Ditto for this sixth year player.

No thought process of just getting the bat on the ball. HR swing all the way. Swinging out of his shoes.

Idiot!!

Saw him with bat in hand walking and talking with manny ramirez before game... looked like they were coming in from RF

Do they still have cages behind wall or is that gone
( construction )

No cages. They just blindfold them and have them swing at pinatas.
