Cubs Fans...what are your thoughts on Samardzija?

Question

At least after he settled down?

Answer 1

He'll be good.....VERY good! Besides the nasty stuff in his arsenal, he's a competitor (the number of clutch receptions he made at wide receiver in college was ridiculous - he saved that offense on several drives). I think he's got it in him to provide solid pitching down the stretch, maybe even start 1 or 2 games to help rest Harden. And Hendry didn't have to trade anyone away, yet just got some bullpen insurance (heaven knows the Cubbies need that!).

Answer 2

I"m not a Cubs fan but I watched him pitch and he does seem to have good stuff, but he will need to grow and develope

hopefully the Cubs give him every oppertunity to do so

Answer 3

I am not a cubs fan and although he did blow the save he had some nasty stuff in that game.....his fastball blew away some hitters and it looks like he could be a future set up man if Wood leaves at the end of the year and Marmol closes.

Answer 4

The Guy's gonna be great. That fastball is just wicked. The wildness is a tad disturbing. When You got that there's always the possibility of a Joaquin Andujar style meltdown in Your future.

Answer 5

The guy has some crazy movement on his 96+ MPH Fastball!

I swear the guy has Carlos Zambrano movement and Kerry Wood velocity. I see a very bright future in front of him!

Edit: Did you see the movement on that thing!

Answer 6

he was awesome at Notre Dame
