We haven’t done one of these in way too long. In part because I’ve been busy, in part because other bloggers are busy, and we rarely can get our schedules to mesh.
I sent some questions about the Cubs to Al Yellon, who has been Manager of Bleed Cubbie Blue since, pretty much, the beginning of SB Nation. He says he’s been a Cubs fan since the 60s, which means he must be in, at least, his 30s , just slightly older than me. I met him a number of years ago and enjoyed spending some time with him.
Stroman was indeed having a great season and made the NL All-Star team. Then he left a game against the Cardinals in London with a blister, and he’s had disastrous starts ever since . Finally, the Cubs put him on the IL — but not for the blister, instead it was with a hip issue. We don’t know how long that was bothering him but it appears to have been for a while. The Cubs hope he’ll be ready to go again later this month.
Javier Assad starts Friday. He’s been mostly a long reliever this year, throws a sinker that when it’s working, induces lots of ground balls. He’s also prone to the walk, so it’s important that he throws strikes. He wears horn-rimmed glasses that make him look like he just stepped out of the 1960s.
