Starting to jump on the Montgomery should be the 5th starter wagon..... I know he plays the good long reliever role but Butler throws way too much like Arrieta...

Butler deserves a few more chances, but Id like Montgomery just to get another lefty in there. Anderson would be better suited for long relief.

Well that was an odd end to the inning. Anyone want to explain Javy bunting there to me?

Little annoying that Timmons is trying to get this to be an official game instead of putting it into delay. Of course, if the Cubs would of got out of this inning, it would of been a good move!

Absolutely pathetic umpiring. It was obvious that the game needed to go into delay going into the fifth.
Trying to get it to be a complete game. Pretty stupid thinking when its a team that is a few hours away from you.

I agree that this game should have been delayed a long time ago. It's the middle of the afternoon and the rain was never going to last more than a couple hours. Should have delayed it before the rain ever came.
