Created for the 3rd catcher who twice came through in the pinch.

I really loved his quotes following both of his big moments this year. I'm glad he'll be the Ross on next year's team.

Not even counting Schwarber.

I love the man, but watching him this year is going to be fucking brutal. He looks cooked in every facet of the game.

Happ for Geovany Soto WHO HANGS UP FIRST

Will it be Caratini or that dude who looks like Gregg Allman coming up?

I can't even remember the last time I've heard of 7 steals in a game, and this is the 4th fucking inning w/o Lester on the mound. His FAMOUS pitch-framing isn't that good anymore and he's thrown out 1 out of about 32 or 33 runners...W.T.F. is he even playing for? He's  done. Firebarn his fat, old, useless ass.

I've heard they have a catcher/outfielder hybrid at Triple A who's getting ready to replace him. Kyle Swanson or Samsonite or something.

Quickest move he had all night was throwing Arrieta under the bus.

What transpired in the last 12 hours is yet another reason to admire the Cubs' management. Montero popped off (yet again), and the Cubs' on-field leader responded. Rather than risk things spiralling further out of control while hoping everything sorts itself out, they moved swiftly and decisively.

I actually wonder if this might be a catalyst for a surge over the next few weeks.

Rizzo's the Zambrano to Montero's Barrett.

Is it too much to hope Lackey is next?

What an interesting idea.
