Of course they are.
Remember 3 years ago when the guy was damn near out of baseball? Then the same thing that happened to essentially every closer happened - a failed starter was put in relief and he sucked less.
****ing organization is out of ideas. You build guys like Alex Colome - you don't ****ing buy them. When you're spinning your wheels in August, you don't trade an organizational asset to plug in someone like Juan Nicasio for a month - you put Sam Tuivailala or John Brebbia in the 9th and see if you can get their stuff to play up and close down games.
But no, this idiot franchise learned nothing down the stretch so they'll have to give up someone like Flaherty or Alcantara for a person who isn't as good as either of them but he's 'done it before'.
Because actually making players better or finding out where they excel is beneath this mongoloid coaching staff.
Congrats, JD - your rival is led by ****ing idiots. And their owner doesn't care because the turnstiles keep spinning. You're going to get a decade like we had when the Tribune owned the Cubs and Hendry was exposed as not really having a clue what he was doing after Prior/Wood/Zambrano fell apart.
