Put him next to Dallas Keuchel in the “washed up arm needed to fill a couple innings in July” hall of fame. 

[TURBO]

and how much did that cost us in salary?

[Frisbee Slider]

12 years in the bigs with Houston and 12 days with Milwaukee

Wont the Cubs pick up the salary when they pick him up?

Equates right

This was not the Lance we were looking for

Pretty sure it was a creative way to pay $2 million cash for Gordon

2.5 million but it was always about getting Gordon for depth with that money.

I wish we would stop wasting our time with adding marginal at best relievers for the stretch run. I don't expect much more out of Gordon than we got out of McCullers.

[Rock hard Brouhard]

I can’t wait to see him compete in the Alumni Legends game.

Houston more or less asked us to DFA him on their behalf and gave us Gordon to do so.

Looks like the DFA nicks from last night did in fact get it right this time.

[Vgmastr]

I wonder if, instead of air-mailing a throw into left field, Bauers had just taken the out at first, whether McCullers would still be on the team today.

[Bulldogboy]

At least they didn't mess around pretending he was a real option. I like it when they do the right thing right away.

This is just 4D chess by Arnold.

Trade Fielder for Gordon, take on McCullers to do so and DFA McCullers. The Cubs just can't help themselves with our DFAs. They will pick him up in 4 days and he will dampen their momentum down the stretch.

Final trade: Fielder for Gordon and the Cubs get worse.

Master class.

McCullers looked like a guy who was afraid to throw the ball over the plate because he knew what would happen………those kind of guys don’t last with the Brewers anymore.
