Chicago Cubs parting ways with Carlos Marmol - chicagotribune.com

Finally!

 

[Wesley]

God, how will he ever be replaced?

They are really going to have to work the sabermetrics to replace all those blown saves.

 

[Clones21]

Stewart gone too

They are really going to have to work the sabermetrics to replace all those blown saves.

It is not the blown saves I worry about. It is the guy that patches the brick behind home plate, this basically puts him out of job.

It's about time. It has been obvious that he is just not going to get it together for The Cubs. I wish him the best, and hopefully he can be successful somewhere else.

 

[cytown]

thank god. he was AWFUL. needs a new start.

 

[KnappShack]

This is addition by subtraction for sure.

Man the Cubs have some dead money tied up in contracts.

 

[ianoconnor]

Bummer.

Cubs just won 5 more games this season by this move alone.

He had unhittable stuff when he was on. Which was 3+ years ago. But I am so happy.

This is good news. My heart is much stronger now.

And Ian Stewart on the same day. This is a good day.

I think this guy is available...

I had never seen that video before and expected it to end horribly. Glad I was wrong.

I was reading an article about Marmol but when I was done it couldn't close

 

[cowmaster1]

This just made my day better. It's bittersweet though. The cubs just got better, but at the same time I have one less marmol to make fun of.

 

[CyCrazy]

This is a sad day for Cardinal fans like myself. Hell the rest of the Central Division is ticked they can't face Marmol anymore.

Does the pic of Wood look like something from CSI?
