Chicago is having one of their best seasons ever so why in the world would they want to screw it up by adding Fernando Rodney to their pitching staff?!!? This "Clown" has cost me a small fortune over the years & he has pitched even worse this year. Was pulling for the Cubbies to finally win it all but with this "Yo-Yo" on the roster their chances just took a BIG hit.
:facepalm:

The coach is the sole reason this deal was made. When in Tampa Bay and Rodney pitched for him, he had a .60 era and being a coach, we all think we have the answer to make someone better. Joe believes he can spark a fire under Rodney and get him to pitch like he did for Tampa and not like Detroit. I think he makes himself look like a thug. Put the hat on straight and be a team player rather than draw all the attention to yourself all the time. It's a work in progress with little to lose for what they got him for.

Is Joe Maddon insane for bringing this clown into a tight game vs Cards? Rodney sucked with the Mariners and still sucks Maddon. Had a chance to sweep the Cards but all went out the window pitching the dynamic duo of Richard and Rodney.:facepalm::facepalm::facepalm:

Leadoff walk and single to the bottom of the order set up the inning.
