And Now for Something Completely Different...
We had fun, we had laughs, we had Mark Prior's shoulder, Dusty Baker's lineup card, Mike Quade's awful nicknames and now we shall have goodbye's.

The Cubs version of Fluffy will no longer exist as the Cubs have traded "catcher" Welington Castillo to the Seattle Mariners for relief pitcher Yoervis Medina. Before I dig into the new guy, let's eulogize Beefy for a bit.
And we move to Wrigley North...
Jason Hammel vs. Jimmy Nelson
Another day, another bullpen implosion...
Jon Lester vs. Lance Lynn
If you have nothing good to say...
Kyle Hendricks vs. Tyler Lyons
So much for that break in the schedule...
Travis Wood vs. Carlos Martinez
The Cubs finally get a bit of a break in the schedule as the depleted Brewers limp into town.
Wily Peralta vs. Jon Lester
Same scenario as last night, a Cubs win and a Cardinals loss and the Cubs are in first place.
Gerrit Cole vs. Kyle Hendricks. Sweep! Sweep! Sweep!
Cubs need a win and a Cardinals loss..granted, to the Phillies...to head back into first place.
Jeff Locke vs. Travis Wood
The battle for 2nd place rages on...
Vance Worley vs. Jason Hammel
Jon Lester vs. Mike Leake
There was snow, there were home runs, but there was no victory. Cubs try to secure the series win with the roster leftovers this afternoon.
Kyle Hendricks vs. Jeff Locke
Well last night was fun...I had my KANG!!! headline all set to go before the 9th inning comeback.
Jason Hammel vs. Vance Worley tonight.
We're just an Albert Almora and Kyle Schwarber away from a full deck of prospects.
I really didn't think they were going to play this game. Hopefully the rain stays away...
Jake Arrieta vs. A.J. Burnett
