[QUOTE="champaignchris, post: 1404319, member: 26283"] Duensing is there over Rosario because he's a left hander. But at some point, the inability to get anyone out should win out over handedness. I think the Cubs would have to DFA Duensing to demote him. Not an inconceivable option at this point. I wouldn't be surprised if Duensing came down with an "injury" of some sort. Much like Chatwood, Duensing's BB/9 has doubled this year compared to his career average. It's a disturbing trend among Cubs pitchers. See also Adam Warren, Yu Darvish, Justin Wilson, Brett Anderson. Pretty much any pitcher that's come to the Cubs from elsewhere and failed has had his walk rate double. It's one of the reasons that Hickey was brought in to replace Bosio. [/QUOTE]
