@MikeDubsRadio Webb has been solid majority of the season. He should be a set-up man though, not on the mound to close out a game. Cubs need a lock down closer as well

[Ryan @Ryebread34]

@CubsWorld80 Just play match up for each opportunity. Don’t think there is one clear cut option for closer right now unless someone goes on a tear

[Ryan @Ryebread34]

@_SamMcGonigle Think it would be wise to shut him down for the season and try again next year. I don’t seem him making a positive impact the remainder of the season

[Ryan @Ryebread34]

@kramerica16 @voiceofcohen2 I’m guessing Kelly declines it, probably betting he will be able to get a 2-3 year deal worth more than the option

[Ryan @Ryebread34]

@CubsSkipper Curious to see if he exercises his PO. If he does, could easily see the Cubs adding two years to the contract. If he doesn’t, would really like to see him back on a 2-3 year deal

[Ryan @Ryebread34]

@JesseRogersESPN Difficult seeing him back next season. Really like Shota, but he gives up way too many homers

[Ryan @Ryebread34]

@brendan_cubs I really enjoy Benetti and the commentators from each team. Gives a nice balance to listen to for the game and Benetti is terrific in the booth

@brendan_cubs Yeah, not sure why he isn’t part of it. Big Z should be there. Was a huge part of the rotation for his career

[Ryan @Ryebread34]

@CBoxSports Was a head scratcher of a trade when they acquired him. Yes, he plays great defense, but he can’t hit. Period.

[Ryan @Ryebread34]

@ChiefCub Very underwhelming so far. Think he needs a stint at AAA to get back on track

[Ryan @Ryebread34]

@OfficiallyJace Reds thought they still had a slim chance and when reality hits that they don’t then placing both on waivers allows them to have a chance at postseason play

[Ryan @Ryebread34]

@CubsZone @JesseRogersESPN Fingers crossed he’s back closer to four weeks, gives him a little bit of time to get some games in and knock off any rust before postseason

[Ryan @Ryebread34]

@ebsoftball2 Keep Cabrera out for the year or if he makes it back, use him out of the pen. Have little confidence he will be an effective starter this season

[Ryan @Ryebread34]

@NWKMF Don’t agree with Bryant being a comp. Bryant seemed to enjoy the games, but back issues have prevented him from being on the field. Rendon is a more accurate comp

[Ryan @Ryebread34]

@TheWrigleyWire Was on board with the trade when it first happened. Looked solid on paper and after the first couple starts, but after that….yikes. Gotta hope he gets back on track asap for this season and moving forward

[Ryan @Ryebread34]

@crawlyscubs Here’s to hoping he comes back healthy next season. He was reliable for a solid four year stretch

[Ryan @Ryebread34]

@brendan_cubs I have been really surprised by Rolison and the success he’s having. Definitely did not anticipate him being an impact arm

[Ryan @Ryebread34]

@realcubsinsider I would extend him. Cubs need power bats and he provides that.

[Ryan @Ryebread34]

@DEvanAltman He had one really poor start. Outside of the STL game he has been perfectly fine
