I am beginning to think this team is not good.

When I first saw Frank Schwindel in the lineup, that was one of the first times I can remember seeing a Cub in the starting lineup and I had no idea who he was or that he was even a Cub.

It doesn't seem especially great when you have a catcher playing shortstop and a guy named Frank Schwindel playing first.

It is a different Romine playing SS. But maybe you knew that and were just being too subtle in your humor?

It’s the catcher’s brother at SS (a likely story).

And, I think Schwindel might be an alias.

Actually in other obscure Cubs news, I had no idea we also had his brother who isn’t a catcher or that Austin even had a brother who was an infielder.

This roster feels almost like it was constructed in the Cleveland front office meeting from Major League.

Weather delay.  No estimate of a new game time.

By the way, Frank Schwindel is now going by the name Frank Swindle.

Hey first base guy was the Cubs Dunkin player of the week, show some respect.

Monday night you would have seen nine innings of baseball.  Today you get shortchanged by two innings.
