I’m thinking Z’s not winning the Cy Young. Yep.
I listened to this whole game, and I have absolutely nothing to say about it.
– Z needed a win here, and did not
– Theriot was great, and it probably won’t matter
– Pierre got 200 H and will get paid, but maybe by someone else
– same for RAM
– Dusty may be gone at the end of the season, but he won’t be forgetten if Eyre and Howry are as wasted as they seem to be.
– and the same if he’s letting Z throw 128 pitches for a minimial increase in his Cy Young chances.
If you need more, read Paul Sullivan losing his mind, in poem form. Speaking of Tribune writers weirdness, when/why did KC Johnson end up back on the Bulls beat? I thought it was a long vacation till I started paying closer attention to bylines.
Another one tommorow.
