The Chicago Cubs made a change to their NLCS roster, adding Rob Zastryzny to the bullpen. With just one off day for travel, the extra arm in the bullpen could be necessary against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Zastryzny seemed to be the obvious choice with the struggles of the Dodgers against left-handers this year.
Tommy La Stella was bumped from the roster to make room for Zastryzny. I’ve been pretty transparent about my feelings for La Stella. While he is a good ballplayer, the “drama” he added to the team when he was sent down left a sour taste in my mouth.
