The views and opinions of Laila Rahimi, Marshall Harris, and Mark Grody should not be taken too seriously. Especially when they give advice. Do not take Marshall's analogies literally. Especially when it comes to Russell Dorsey. The sports thoughts of Rahimi, Harris, and Grody may change at any time. It's just sports. Okay, thanks, bye!
Rahimi Harrison-Grody, 10-2 on 104.3 The Score.
We had Pete Carr Armstrong on. Later that day, Matt Armstrong, his dad, joined Spiegel and Holmes on Friday. And Matt talked about his love for Chicago sports.
What was your sports fandom? Posters on the wall. Give us a thumbnail of you.
Posters on the wall. Walter. Walter. Hell yeah. And I loved him. I just, I mean, he was my, like, hero growing up.
I'm overwhelmed. Would I rather be feared or loved? Easy, both. I want people to be afraid of how much they love me. It's the way you just kept going, right? That's what got you. Because you were like, oh, okay. And then you were like, oh, okay. Wait a minute now. It'll be you. Yeah. Yeah, baby. Matt Armstrong. Not Matt Crawlarm, but Matt Armstrong. Sir, sir, look at me. Congratulations. 8.5 bears.
Wow. For a guy, yes, 85. The bears. The bears.
The bears. Here's the other question here. Is it our turn to go interview Fred Horner now? Because the afternoon show interviewed Matt Armstrong. Do we retaliate with a dad interview of our own since Pete was on our show?
Yeah, they're like, oh, oh, you got Pete? Well, we're going to get the dad.
Yeah, Fred Horner.
I feel like Carl Williams would be the go-to.
Go straight to the top.
That would be great. What are you guys doing? We're looking for homeboy's dad. He's looking for homeboy's dad. Jesus. There are a lot of Gallagher's. Hey, Fiona, do you know any of Frank's brother's names?
8.5 Bears, Matt Armstrong. Congratulations.
Layla Rahimi, Marshall Harris, Mark Grody. Midday's 10 a.m. to 2 on Chicago Sports Radio. 104.3 The Score.
Hello, and maybe we should find Edward Cabrera's parents, get him on the show, because let me tell you something, that man is worthy. Welcome in to Rahimi Harrison Grody. I am Marshall Harris, joined by... National baseball insider. He's all over the MLB. The host of the Relay with Russ podcast. It is Russell Dorsey. Good morning, Russell. What's going on, Marshall Harris? Well, you know, something is going on. The White Sox and the Cubs, for the first time since the regular season finale of last year, have... One on the same day. How about that? How about that? And I understand you were actually at the game in which Edward Cabrera said, let me remind you guys of who I could be if, I don't know, I played for a ball club where fans show up.
Yeah, the stuff was nasty. Like, he looked like a dude last night. And that's what, when they traded for him, that's what you were expecting. And I know that's what Cubs fans were expecting near the... front and middle of that rotation, a power arm that has nasty secondary stuff that, when healthy, can be a difference maker in your rotation. And that part, when healthy, do we put an asterisk by that? Do we just hold on for dear life? Because that's been the main issue with Edward Cabrera. He's never had outstanding control. But when your stuff is that good, you just need to be in the neighborhood and people have trouble with fastballs that now are hitting 97, 98 miles per hour. Before the game yesterday, when talking to the correct counsel, he was just like, we haven't tried to change anything with Edward Cabrera.
We thought he was a really good pitcher. We brought him in. We think he's a really good pitcher now, and now he's trying to get a really good pitcher to make as many starts as possible. And the big factor in that is the health like he made the most starts he's ever made last season. And you just want to continue that if you're the Cubs. And so you're going to find ways to do that throughout the season. But if the stuff is going to look like that, you're you're in for a great ride this summer. And again, Owen Casey got off to a tremendous start, although he suffered his first loss of the season last night at the hands of the Chicago White Sox.
