Is it really any worse than a 5.48 major league era in 141 innings ?

Maybe De LaCruz should legally change his last name to Coleman. Would that help?

Why does this always happen ? I never mentioned Coleman --you guys are being childish. Bowden is a reliever --Coleman is a starter --I never thought once that he may take Coleman's place.

Was I supposed to be impressed with the article --thats kind of how you made it sound ?

You've pretty much been wrong about most pitchers.

Coleman won't start for this team and now he probably won't even pitch out of the pen.

The article was just a nice perspective on Bowden's career. It wasn't flattering and it wasn't negative.

His boytoy Coleman has a 5.48 career ERA in 141 innings

Hmm, let's see. Dempster, old, likely to get hurt, bad last year and overpaid. KWood, old, likely to get hurt, overpaid.

Honestly, whether Coleman or Wells got called up, would it really matter?

I don't mind Coleman but I do not know why he is upset with a player that has never thrown a pitch for the Cubs yet. Like I said, I am looking forward to watching Bowden pitch. I am pretty happy with this trade.

Dempster is still one of the best pitchers in the league ...you're wrong.

Are you a friend of Dempster's uncle's cousin also?

"Was I supposed to be impressed with the article --thats kind of how you made it sound ?"

Again , you .....no.
Others might be , well maybe not impressed, but possibly encouraged that this guy might help the team.

Frankly, it's a little stalkerish the way he drools over the guy.

ALL I said was --am I supposed to be impressed ?

He is another team's reject afterall.

Again ...don't get your hopes up.
