    Cubs make very Braves-like move.

    Saw tonight (Tuesday) that the Cubs have called up Anthony Varvaro and James Russell. How very August, 2014, of them.

    Except for the follow-through where they DFA'd Varvaro today???


    Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...

    Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?

    The piece that said Varvaro was called up like Russell was incorrect, he was claimed off waivers after being DFA'd by Boston and after that the Cubs simply activated him. Now a day later after doing so they've DFA'd him again for some reason.

    Tuesday: Welcome to the Cubs Varvaro! :)
    Wed: Hey Varvaro, we had to DFA you again. I hope you enjoyed your day with us! :)
