Agreed

I wish that I believed in Fate. I wish I didn't sleep so late. I used to be carried in the arms of cheerleaders.

Does he only have one pitch that he can throw for strikes? That's what it looks like to me.

Plus I hate his stupid spectacles and his old man delivery.

Playoffs? With Gregg as a closer? Pshaw.
I'm 100% fine with this. I'm just glad there's an actual plan in place that isn't, "Let's load up on retreads and hope we get lucky." I'm a little tired of that plan.

Ok for fuck's sake, if the Cubs don't make the playoffs, it won't be because of Kevin Gregg. Gimme a fucking break.

There's about 2 lockdown closers out there and about 20 mediocre ones (the category Gregg falls into), there's gonna be about 6-7 teams in the playoffs with mediocre closers.

I wish he had an out pitch. All of his strikes are hittable.

Kevin Gregg is the biggest poser since Vanilla Ice.
I hate my pretentious sounding username too.

That's what I'm saying. The only strikes he was throwing were fastballs right down the middle with zero movement. That said, if we just could hit with men on base, we probably win tonight, and last night too. Gregg's mediocrity is magnified because our offense sucks dick.

I agree with the fact that if the Cubs miss the playoffs it will not be because of Gregg. However Ruby, your statement about the closers and playoff teams is ridiculous. As it stands right now the closers for the playoff teams would be:

Jonathan Papelbon
Mariano Rivera
Fernando Rodney
Frank Francisco/CJ Wilson
Brad Lidge
Ryan Franklin
Jonathan Broxton

The current WC teams in the NL would have Hoffman or Brian Wilson

I would take ANY ONE of those closers over Kevin Gregg. When healthy, Papelbon, Rivera, Francisco, and Broxton are as lock down as it gets. Lidge has had a tough time, but we cannot forget he did not blow a save at all last year. IMO, Gregg is worse that any one of those closers except maybe Rodney and Franklin.

Add Jenks, Cordero and Valverde to the list of closers on 2nd tier/mediocre teams that I'd take over Gregg as well.

Maybe it just feels this way, but Gregg doesn't just blow saves, he finds a way to blow the saves that really hurt. He killed what would've been a huge emotional win tonight. Instead of being totally fired up about the comeback win on the road, everyone feels like dogshit.
