can i interest anyone in some beef between the cubs and the infamous Alex Rod who has made powerful enemies on the North Side by implying the cubs were upset at yu darvish for being injured

Adam Engel had three legit home run robberies on one homestand, dude would be insanely good if he was capable of hitting at all

everyone needs to leave sammy alone, he roided up and blasted some dingers and took the cubs to the playoffs twice and then, like cincinnatus, retired to peacefully live the rest of his life dressed like the cesar romero joker

if you're that concerned about a guy hitting a leadoff home run you don't have to pitch to him; in fact you can just point to the base

I remember Kip Wells gave up a really significant bonds homer too, I can’t remember which one it was

Ah number 600 - mentioned as an aside in this fun article about precisely this topic, pitchers who gave up milestone homers

the only important milestone homer is david ross getting his first career homer off of mark grace

Every time I look his stats up they're somehow worse than I expect. I'm sure Cubs fans know this one, but 99.2 innings pitched and he has more walks than hits or strikeouts!

A 1.796 WHIP is maybe the worst I've seen with nearly 100 innings pitched. If not, it's pretty drat close.

allow me to direct you, though, to his SPIN RATE
