Theo is going concertive with his call ups.

Tseng: Never going to cut it.
Ferrell: Ditto
Zast: Yo-Yo
Rosario: 24 YO lefty. I would let him keep working at the major league level.
Hancock: 27 YO Kinda of a career minor league type. Can see why Theo demoted here.

Now they gave Kyle Ryan a rotation spot at Iowa. He has 128 innings logged in the majors. So We can expect him at some point.

The guys that they are holding back are Underwood, Mills and Alzolay. Maples's walk rate is plain ugly this year.

Cubs with this series has a chance to pull ahead some on the Pirates and gain on the Cardinals or Pirates as they play each other....

Lol..

You can see why they demoted a guy who in 7 G, pitched 10 innings struck out 10 hitters has a 1.06 WHIP and 1.74 ERA..
4 hits out of 40 batters faced

Montgomery looked like a man on a mission that 1st inning...

He wants to start, here his opportunity to show he deserves to

Lets go with a hit and run when the guy looks like Chatwood out there.

Well, Kuhl threw 10 of the first 11 pitches in the top of the 2nd for balls. Great to see that, as much as we get aggravated by it on our own side, it ain't just Chatwood out there, all by his lonesome, with control issues at the major league level.

I'll be interested to see what the big hub-bub was all about....it wasn't any different than a runner taking out a middle infielder at second to break up a double play. Just a different base.
