Dunces
Now that it's official, I am now a seated school board member, it's time to send some people to detention.
To all of you screaming about Chad Fox being hurt and that it's Dusty Baker's fault: SHADDAP!!!!
 Chad shouldn't have been pitching on consecutive days?  Especially with a big lead?  Utter crap.  If Chad was going to be the closer, he was going to have to pitch back-to-back games sooner or later.  A blowout is the perfect time to see if a guy with a questionable bionic arm can handle the closer role.  If his arm can't handle it, you don't lose a game.  What?  Bring him into close game on consecutive days and take a chance on blowing the game because his arm can't move on its hinges?  That's plain dumb.

That's plain dumb.It's very clear that Chad's arm was going to explode at some point. Waiting a day or two was not going to prevent that. What was saved by bringing him into yesterday's game was a victory.
What's hilarious is all the whining Cubs fans are doing. You'd think they were crying over a guy who'd been here years who was on his way to the Hall of Fame. Slap yourselves. You guys are making the Cardinal-DK57 crowd look good.
