And another fucking pickoff, this time at second.  Four now this year.

I'm not going to lie: David Ross gives me a big, greasy, uncut Euroboner.  I love the guy.

Hopefully he doesn't retire!

He can get the bulk of the playing time over Montero for as long as he can handle it, as far I'm concerned. I was calling last night the Travis Wood game which is funny to me at least, but what Ross did was just as remarkable. What a season he's having. And they're so good offensively that his struggles at the plate don't really offset all the good work he's doing behind it.

Yeah, pretty good with at least a 50/50 split of the catching duties. Montero is just painful to watch at the plate right now, and he can't throw anymore. Let Grandpa play as long as he wants to, and by that I mean until Willson Contreras goes nuts in September like he's Geovany Soto in 2007 and eventually becomes the catcher for the playoffs. Except this time we'll make sure Oleg doesn't introduce him to the devil's tobacco.
I will vow, for the sake of peace, not to complain about David Ross between now and his first start next year- 10/26/2015

The devil's tobacco is most likely tobacco.

Don't push your pro-weed agenda on me, not after seeing the horrible repercussions that a devastating marijuana addiction had on the promising career of young Geovany.

Struggles at the plate?  He's good for a .759 OPS, and is waiting by the phone for your apology.

How good is this?

Second best catcher ERA in baseball behind Ross is A.J. Ellis at 2.42, and he catches Kershaw.

Catcher's ERA? Bad News Mike? Is that you? How's Koyie Hill doing?

Basically, the Cubs have a really good pitching staff.

Also the best defense in the game. Which owes something to David Ross, so kudos. But catcher's ERA is dumb as hell, and it's something Cardinals fans throw out to prop up their ludicrous YADI FOR HOF campaign. So no.

Which you can now counter with "David Ross is better", so you're welcome.
