I support this sarcastic statement.

I can't tell if you're being serious or not. What is Archer's upside BTW? Forgive me if you've answered this question before.

Both comments had to do with the way the Cubs have handled Cashner.

Archer can be an elite starter. Law was on the money though with his durability. I'm hoping he starts pitching more 6 innings games next year. From what I know, Archer used to use his curve as his go to pitch in the past and now uses his slider quite a bit more.

Also, besides Cashner and Archer, Carpenter is a legit pitcher that could be a solid number 3 with upside for more. McNutt is young, but he'll start out in AA next year, so he has a chance to be a September call up.
