17 straight starts for Greinke under 2 ER. Best streak in the modern era.
Any inning limit on that, 5+?

There are only two scenarios:
a. It's a short-sighted PR decision made out of some odd fear.
b. There's a behind-the-scenes tinkling match
That last one, translated: Guy in a suit got mad at guy in a uniform, and guy in a uniform hasn't shown the proper deference yet. The problem is that the tinkling is splattering everywhere. Pretending Sosa doesn't exist isn't helping the Cubs at all. It's just an excuse for everyone to point at the Cubs and talk about how weird they're being, while the Cubs fans don't get the opportunity to cheer a player who absolutely defined the franchise for about a 10th of its existence.
Trivia FACT today:
The Tigers lost the 1909 World Series in seven games despite the heroics of pitcher George Mullin, who pitched three complete games, including a shutout, relieved in another game, and pinch-hit in two other games.
Good pitching matchup tonight in atlanta: Santana vs. Bailey.
