Today was joyful positive. Something else that is joyful - listening to Dick Enberg call baseball games. It doesn't suck. Oh my!

[Powdered Toast Man]

The Cubs won't lose today!

[R-V]

Hot damn I loves me some Latroy Hawkins lead blowage.

[RedBeard]

Since it rarely happens on here, I'm going to positive Theriot. He did not suck today.

True. Tomorrow is another day, though. And I have a short memory. But I'm gonna joyful positive Geovany Soto, because fuck Penfoe, that's why.

Watching Marmol go KKK on the 2-4 hitters was fun, but does that make him a racist?

Let's see.  A Hispanic pitcher KKK'd a very white guy, a Jewish guy and an African American.  Yeah.  He is a racist.

Joyful positive- Ted Lilly- 4 innings, 51 pitches, 1 ER, 4 SO's, 1 BB.
Joyful positive- Andrew Cashner- 6 innings, 90 pitches, 2 ER, 10 SO's (that's 20 in 10.2 innings this season), 0 BBs.

He was a closer in college wasn't he?

Yeah, but with an arm like that they did the smart thing and decided to see if he could handle starting first. So far so good. If they'd taken that approach with Snork and just let him be a starter in the minors for a few years maybe he'd have a lot more value. Or maybe he wouldn't. My point is that Jeff Samardzija sucks.

No, wait. That wasn't my point at all. My point is that Cashner has been the balls and took a no hitter into the 7th tonight.

This.

The encouraging thing, is that his control has improved since they drafted him.  If he stays in the strike zone, and he in fact has four pitches that he can use...I could see him being in Chicago next season.

Yeah, his walk rights have typically dropped as he gets higher up in the system, so that's good to see, and he's only walked 2 in 10.1 innings while striking out 20. Steaktits.

Not the KKK - he's a member of the ¿Qué?¿Qué?¿Qué?
