Jeff Samardzija Hates Iowa

Jeff Samardzija Hates Iowa

By Brett on February 4, 2009

Jim Hendry Hearts Pitchers

Jim Hendry Hearts Pitchers

By Brett on January 7, 2009

Obviously Chicago Cubs fans everywhere want Jim Hendry to be considering only one fifth starter to replace the deposed Jason Marquis: Jake Peavy. But the realistic-osity of acquiring Jake Peavy remains to be seen. In the meantime, Hendry recently offered up his thoughts on rounding out the rotation. Lefty Sean Marshall got some high praise, [...]
