It was utterly amazing he actually got three strikes on a hitter. There was zero chance he was going to get a fourth.
Maddon should've pulled him after the blown call.
Also, Schitter = German for Kevin Gregg.

Light up the barn.
I see that he's diversifying. Instead of just allowing in his own runs, he's moved on to also alienating his teammates by allowing inherited runners to score. So that's...something.

I get that Joe has to use him because they were taxed by the extra innings game, Lester didn't go deep, Ramirez is hurt, etc. I get that.
But why not try Motte (and yes, I know he gave up the homer but he'd been scoreless until then) try to wiggle you out of the men-on-base jam, and then see if Schlitter can go an inning on his own without sharting himself? Using Schlitter in the higher leverage situation is just bad.
There's gotta be someone as good or better in Iowa.

I was hoping Rivero would seize the opportunity, but he's been significantly less than good so far.
Joe Maddon's no idiot...methinks Schlitter is going to be spending a little time butthugging that bench while Edwin Jackson moves ahead of him in the bullpen.

Forget it, it's Sterlingtown.
The middle innings are a real shitshow right now. The starters will get stretched out soon, I hope and they'll rely less on Schlitter, Jason Motte and Phil Meth. I know it's insane, but I actually wouldn't mind seeing E-Jax get a tryout in a leverage situation, as he can't be worse than the aforementioned. Actually, I guess he can.
But if you're looking for reasons why the enthusiasm should be tempered and the postseason we covet may be at least a year away, these slapdicks might be it. I know the Reds and Pirates have similar issues in that area. A lot of teams do at this point with starters going 5-6 innings a start and back ends of rotations still in flux. But this could be a real bad deal for us.
Also, anyone who had a problem with Pedro Strop at anytime during his tenure here now has this opportunity to apologize, directly to me.

I'd be more worried if there weren't reinforcements coming eventually in Grimm and Ramirez, and you can always flip minor prospects for bullpen arms. It may be June before they have them both in there or get other help, but as long as they can stay above water till then I think they should still be poised for a run as the starters get stretched out, Lester settles in, and hopefully the offense stays hot.

Yeah, bullpen help is pretty easy to find and the Cubs (obviously) have the prospect depth to go get it.

FYHUEY!
God damnit.
Seriously, why would they not call up MACK SEIZURE?
I was really hoping to never again have to bear witness to Junior Fucking Lake in a Cubs uniform. Fuckall.
I asked the same question on Twitter and was informed Seizure had to be down in Iowa for 10 days before he can be recalled. Not yet there.

Damn you, Oleg.

The Cubs didn't DL anyone in this transaction. I shall accept no damning!

So, this tells me the Cubs thought Brian Schlitter was so schlitty that they decided they couldn't even wait for the
desired roster move. To Junior's credit, he was hitting almost .300 and trying to take more walks and hit for more contact.

And he can kinda/sorta fill the jack-of-all-trades hole until Mendy starts hitting.

Or hopefully he can not play at all unless someone gets hurt. But even if he does play, at least he can only make outs and not set himself and the lead on fire like Brian Schlitter. In that way, he is an improvement.

He was at least above the Mendoza line in AAA, which is more than we can say about Mendy.

Denorfia must be hurting, because Lake is getting the start vs the lefty starter tonight. Sorry, Huey.

I'm all for scorching the earth with MAX SEIZURE's smoking corpse but good god I really had hoped I had seen the last of Schlitter.
I'm under no illusion about Gonzalez Germen being non-shitty but I still think he's less shitty than Schlitter so I hate this
My bullshit intolerance is flaring up.
Okay the pen got a rest and there's an off day Monday, give Schlitter his walking papers
Not again.

Well, at least they can send Schlitter walking with a win under his belt.
