They've now replaced him by getting Darwin Barney from the Dodgers.

It's nice to see him have a good game.  I just wish he could have sustained things.  At 35 now,it seems a bit unlikely

Samardzija just gave up 10 ER in 3 innings to the A's.  ERA is now 5.27 on the season.  We got lucky that he rejected a long term deal from us and were able to get Addison Russell for him.  I wonder what kind of deal he'll sign next year.

I wonder if it will exceed what the Cubs offered before trading him?

He'll probably take a QO.  But will White Sox extend one?

Samardzija is weird this year.  He became a flyball pitcher who can't strike people out.  His velocity is fine, down 94.2.  His SwingingStrike% is 9.9% which is down about 2 % form his high with the Cubs, but in line with his 2011 numbers when he was K/9 was 8.9.  He seems to throwing his cutter more and his 4 seam/sinker less.  His cutter isn't his best pitch.

If the Cubs don't get Price and Samardzija doesn't get a QO, I would be interested in 1 year deal and let Bosio fix him.

I'll hope Zimmerman is on our radar after Price...he's still a top pitcher who's at his best in big games...and he likely won't command what Price will.

Do not want Zimmermann.  The K's disappeared and he's 7 years out from TJS.

If we can get Samardzjia on a Hammel/Feldman deal, I'd like to have him back.
