An illustrated (cartoons, watercolors, digital, gifs, etc.) baseball blog about what it feels like to be a fan of the Chicago Cubs by Chicago artist Tim Souers.
Larry Rothschild to the Yankees? What was he thinking?
His official stance is he wants to be closer to his family in Florida.
I think you and I know better.
Good luck with the Yankees, Larry.
Comments
Losing Rothschild is a serious blow: The guys at Another Cubs Blog have done excellent work over the last year examining Rothschild's effect on our pitchers. In short, he typically increases Ks, decreases BBs, while holding HRs constant. That's a recipe for general success.
I can't blame Larry either. Who wouldn't want to work at a ring factory like New York? Also, there's a chance that his departure may have been precipitated by the presence of Greg Maddux. There are suspicions Mad Dog may want to wear a uni again (as a coach, that is).
Hey Stats,
Well I sure didnt see this coming.
If you read around, hes a seriously respected pitching coach (except in some of the commenters in NY).
I always hear Maddux wants a job further away from the field.
But if he become a pitching coach, that would be amazing.
is an art blog following the Chicago Cubs with cartoons, gifs, animations, and illustrations by me, Tim Souers.
I began the illustrations in 2003 - you can find the links to the 2003 - 2006 seasons below.
2007 - present is in the regular archives.
Feel free to contact me at CubbyDashBlue(at)gmail(dot)com.
Thanks for visiting, and go Cubs.
