Mark Grody is there.

Good.

We like questions.

The question is, with as much starting pitching as the Cubs have and maybe even adding more

Right.

And before Mark answers, I'll just say,

That is my look at this.

Are the Cubs the mini Dodgers?

In other words, you see so many of the pitchers that dominated in the World Series who didn't pitch more than 12 or 15 games in the regular season.

They have that luxury with a $400 million payroll.

So from the perspective of copycat, like they do in every sport,

Mark Grody, would this be a good way to go for the Chicago Cubs?

You couldn't have given a better answer than that.

Yeah.

Well, I mean, look, talking to the people that usually want this stuff out there, not necessarily always happening.

for the last seven, eight weeks.

You know, Gallin and the Cubs have always been connected since early December.

And the idea that he is still out there without a contract and a quality starting pitcher who will probably have to take a three-year deal of some sort with some type of ability to get out of it after the first or second year.

Well, my take on this, you know, I've known Frank since, you know, 1989 when he, you know, first came up.

I mean, he's always been a really, really sensitive guy and a very excellent best hitter in White Sox history.
