Cubs know the personalities and which guy(s) need what.  I trust Cubs to make the right call as to who should be up (and why).

Perhaps Young didn't fit the clubhouse perfectly (tho' I've never heard anything negative about him), perhaps they think Canario will really benefit watching the MLB Cubs work their processes and the wisdom of at least some of the guys who have good Spanish. 

Whatever is the reality, it would really be fun for Canario to hit one to the moon in a Cub uni this season! 

Both Morel and Canario have holes in their games, however, IF they ever really figure it out, watch out!  Both have elite raw talent!

To be fair to PCA, HIS chances of doing it were >>> 15%.

Yeah, his attitude seems to be that he can and should catch everything.

I want to say I feel sorry for Steele's finance.  Having a disease that medicine can not figure out sucks, my wife went through a similar situation in December.  It was a bunch of vague symptoms and caused serious issues.  Labs, Diagnostic testing, rheumatologists couldn't figure out what was going on.  Her symptoms started to improve on their own.  I get what they went through.

Chronic Lyme Disease is controversial to say the least.  The $2000 dollar test she had isn't FDA approved.  The treatments she is having are a great way to bilk money out of people, none of it is FDA approved.  Functional Medicine is quackery, ie I'm going to order a bunch of expensive tests and give you a made up diagnosis to buy supplements that I sell for hefty markup.

That article reads more of a failure of medicine and how it leads people down the road to quacks in a search for answers.

More a failure in educating people than a failure of medicine.  IMO.

It's a failure of medicine.  People start to feel that if we can't give their symptoms a name, that the doctor doesn't believe those symptoms exist and they are in their head, ie postpartum depression in the article.  It drives them right to the functional medicine guys, who tell them we'll get to the root cause unlike evidence based medicine.  If they can't call Chronic Lyme Disease then it would be adrenal fatigue.  The treatment is the same, things that aren't covered by insurance that cost a lot of money that the doctor sells out of their office.

Who was your wife's primary physician?  Hope it wasn't that quack in Council Bluffs.
