We think the Cubs will win 101 games, and the Cubs bullpen is great
I can't agree with that. Gregg is pretty crappy.
Yeah, he became Matt LaPorta (backwards) for the purposes of our podcast
Did someone actually say because of their great bullpen? Please say it wasn't me! I buy into the 101ish wins as a bold prediction, but not because of Gregg's sorry butt

I think Darren said that the Cubs bullpen was fantastic, I'll have to go back and check.

......................those three guys at the end of your bullpen, that's great.
