It is a good thing the Cubs don't need a good starting pitcher at this point in the season or anything...uggh.

I wonder if he can hit? He could be the next Rick Ankiel

Yeah, he could solve their on-going CF problem.......

so are mine.

The Cubs have thrown this guy under a bus, it seems. He'll be elsewhere next year.

Ankeil anyone?

So wait, this guy is a psychopath? NIIIICE!

I know the term "...under the bus" is popular these days, but I don't think it applies. They gave Hill every opportunity to succeed and it's clear he doesn't have the mental makeup to play for the Cubs. It's not like he's a 22 year old.
He'll probably end up continuing his epic 2006(?) campaign when he was about 15-1 in AAA.

Yeah, no Cubs have ever had physical arm problems. Well, at least until they go on the disabled list before they have surgery.

A baseball player with mental problems!!!!! mmmmmm and so the story is what?

The comparisons to Aniel don't work, simply because Rich Hill isn't a cheater and has never used HGH. Unlike Ankiel, who is a cheater and plays for the Cardinals. Albert Pujols also plays for the Cardinals. Just throwing that out there.

Go Cubbies.

Pujol's plays for the Cardinals? What is this madness?

you should change your name to UltimateDumbAss b/c that is one stupid remark. I assume that you have the complete list of HGH and Steroid users...

I'm not condoning the use, but pls don't think for a minute that the names that have been named represent the complete list of users. There are 100s of other guys out there who's name never got released.

Hey man I didnt even say it I was making a joke take it easy.

sorry ultimate cub...I was referring to the other guy and realized that I used the wrong name....anyway, he could still use the name ultimatedumbass....

Sigh....... okay Cub fans, one more time. Ankiel's HGH use was a prescription from a doctor following surgery. There was one shipment of HGH to Ankiel, and it was prescribed.

Oh, and I agree, Me DUM DUM.......Spalding could definitely use that name and it would be appropriate.

lmo Agreed

The "Rick Ankiel Hitting School" is accepting applications for fall enrollment.

Maybe they can trade him now while he still has value? Brian Roberts threads to be back. Film at 11pm
