Cubs vs White Sox ahead. Someone has to win I guess! Both almost the same record, or the same record in recent weeks, which is sad!

Nobody said it was.
I looked up his last 4 outings in Iowa on rehab assignment and hopefully a sign of things to come. He topped out at 101 mph in what believe was his latest outing.

5/24 - 1.2 IP, 0 hits, 0 runs, 0 BB, 3 K
5/28 - 1 IP, 1 hit, 0 runs, 1 BB, 3 K
5/30 - 1 IP, 0 hits, 0 runs, 0 BB, 1 K
6/2 - 1 IP, 0 hits, 0 runs, 0 BB, 1K

Total: 4.2 IP, 1 hit, 0 runs,1 BB, 8 K

So if he fails we can blame you?

I’m going to choose to be optimistic as I think being a negative fan all the time isn’t fun. Team is finally getting healthy. Steele, Shota, Taillon, Assad, Brown should be a formidable rotation. Lineup has been brutal but the pieces are there and I think PCA is a great culture/spark plug kinda guy that hopefully will help give the team the edge it needs. Happ has started to contribute a little bit. Need a couple of Belli, Suzuki, Morel, Nico, Suzuki to be consistent. DESPERATELY need to trade for a catcher as not only are Amaya and Gomes automatic outs at the plate right now, they also can’t throw anyone out at all.

Bullpen will likely be a rollercoaster but hopefully help is on the way with some guys getting healthy.

And lastly, we don’t play a team that is currently over .500 for the next 3.5 weeks so there is some ground to be made up. I still don’t totally buy the Brewers but could be wrong

Over and over and over and over and over again. Stupid plays and stupid errors combined with no consistency at the plate. It's the definition of insanity....I wish Jed had been on air when that play was made. Channel was changed once I saw that error. It's maddening.

The only thing worse than thinking Morel could be your every day 3B is continuing to put him out there in the 4 hole. Just totally unserious baseball. Adding insult to injury— I forgot to cancel Marquee before it auto renewed this month so I’m paying another month for this ****. Send Hoyer to ******* China and give Theo a billion dollars to come back.
