OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

Joyful positive- Ted Lilly- 4 innings, 51 pitches, 1 ER, 4 SO's, 1 BB.
Joyful positive- Andrew Cashner- 6 innings, 90 pitches, 2 ER, 10 SO's (that's 20 in 10.2 innings this season), 0 BBs.

He was a closer in college wasn't he?

Yeah, but with an arm like that they did the smart thing and decided to see if he could handle starting first. So far so good. If they'd taken that approach with Snork and just let him be a starter in the minors for a few years maybe he'd have a lot more value. Or maybe he wouldn't. My point is that Jeff Samardzija sucks.

No, wait. That wasn't my point at all. My point is that Cashner has been the balls and took a no hitter into the 7th tonight.

This.

The encouraging thing, is that his control has improved since they drafted him.  If he stays in the strike zone, and he in fact has four pitches that he can use...I could see him being in Chicago next season.

Yeah, his walk rights have typically dropped as he gets higher up in the system, so that's good to see, and he's only walked 2 in 10.1 innings while striking out 20. Steaktits.

It all went to shit when those stinking walks got their rights.  Stinking walks.

I think Snork should master one of his pitches at some point. If he can master two of them, he would make a fine reliever. With three? Well!He could be the next Kevin Hart.

Because it won't last'd.
This is so bad, I'd root for the Orioles over this fucking team, but I can't. Because they're a fucking drug and you can't kick it and they'll never win anything and they'll always suck, but it'll always be sunny at Wrigley and there will be tits and ivy and an old scoreboard and fucking Chads.
