Who needs bullpen help? The Nationals and Cinci are two teams off the top of my head. The Angels need a SP badly.

I think it is way to early to shake it up. Unless it is a trade for a significant arm, which it probably isn't.

Wow. Between Gaudin and Vizcaino we couldn't even find someone willing to give us a Kyler Burke type back in return? Yikes

That's just crazy.
A request to someone who is good at playing devil's advocate: please explain this to the rest of us.

He can still be traded after being DFA'd. Let's not freak out yet.
The thing you need to remember is that all Cardinals fans and all White Sox fans are very bad people. It's a fact that has been scientifically proven beyond a shadow of a doubt. Being a Cubs fan is the only path to rightousness and piousness. Cardinal and White Sox fans exist to be the dark, diabolical forces that oppose us. They are the yin to our yang, the Joker to our Batman, the demon to our angel, the insurgence to our freedom, the oil to our water, the club to our baby seal. Their happiness occurs only in direct conflict with everything that is pure and good in this world.

The only reason I can figure is that Vizcaino is terrible against LH batters and Shark has been decent against them, though his sample size is small. Still, doesn't do much to explain why Cotts is still on the roster.

I think Cotts being on the roster has more to do with him having been born left-handed than anything else. We do kind of need at least one in the pen, and he's the resident warm body.

Well I think that Spellcheck in the pen makes us a better team, and I dont give a shit about Vizcaino.
It's still weird, if true.

Samardzija makes the bullpen better - I'm fine with this.

Cotts should be pumping gas in Jersey.
Anyone else find it odd that Marshall was warming up in the pen right after they said he wasn't going to the pen? Was that just his side work?

Hopefully we can get something for Vizcaino, but either way Shark helps us more.
