Paul Goldschmidt: A Hanging Curveball

Brandon Drury: A Hanginger Curveball

still excited about Quintana overall but outside of the Orioles start he's been shaky. He's allowed a hard hit rate of 38% and got away with some shit vs STL and MIL that the Diamondbacks are making him pay for.
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

Wasn't expecting him to restart.

He's clearly a WHITE SOX DOUBLE AGENT acting on direct orders of Jerry Reinsdorf to make sure they win the trade.

You know...you don't *have* to have a take after 5 starts.  He's been fine.  He nearly pulled his own ass out of the fire in the first before Paul Goldschmidt happened.

And Paul Goldschmidt's apparently pretty good.
Just a sloppy, undisciplined team.  Garbage.

Quintana was a late arrival to the 2017 Cubs, so he's still catching up on his First Inning Runs phase.

Sounds like we can pack up our expectations.

I can't believe I even know these people. I'm ashamed of my internet life.

4.20 ERA in 5 outings kinda ignores that 4/5 have been quality starts? I mean I wasn't pleased with him getting Goldschmidt'd and he seems to be struggling with spotting his stuff early, but he's hardly been terrible.

This did at least remind me that Rotoworld apparently still exists.

NBC Sports bought them a handful of years back and they're incorporated directly into Yahoo fantasy now.

Of course he gets owned by Hoskins in the first inning. Of course.

7 of his 10 Cubs starts have been quality starts (1 was a 5 inning 1 ER outing in the 15-5 win over Toronto. The other two were the meltdowns). Hopefully he can just avoid meltdowns in October?
