[QUOTE="champaignchris, post: 1652909, member: 26283"] After he pitched batting practice to the Brewers last night, the Cubs finally put Arrieta out of his misery. Good seeing Rowan Wick up and throwing well. He's been limited by health, but over the last three years, he's had a 2.55 ERA over 42.1 innings in the minors and a 2.61 ERA over 51.2 innings in the Majors. Hopefully, he can stay healthy the rest of the season and show that he can be a nice piece going into next year. This team would be a lot more fun to watch if it weren't for several potential contributors in 2022 being hurt - Madrigal (although if he weren't hurt, he likely wouldn't have been available in the trade), Hoerner, Hermosillo (just got re-activated at Iowa, went 2 for 2 with 2 walks in his first game back, mashing 324/450/610 for the year, only 26 and plays centerfield - what am I missing here?), Maples, Nance, Wieck, Marquez. Keegan Thompson is stretching out and should be joining the rotation soon. (Davies next on the chopping block? He's been almost as bad as Arrieta over his last 6 or so starts.) Not sure why Rivas and Leeper are still in Iowa. [/QUOTE]
