Retro Kyle Farnsworth??
I know it’s wrong but it looks like him!
This is only the beginning....Lou Pinella end of '07 season and Chicago Transit Authority (the band when they were really good).
It does, a little.
But no, it’s not him.

Darn!
That pic was a good one. Wonder why I can’t link to it.

I'll give you that.
Obviously, that doesn’t narrow it down too much.

Yes, yes ... winter is indeed a pond upon which all of us must skate, braving frostbite and runny noses in the hopes that our cars will start and we shan't embarass ourselves slipping on a patch of black ice. Spring is more a quagmire of cold mud and slush, and fall is a pile of fallen leaves that may or may not hide a pile of doggy doo-doo. But summer, ah summer is an oasis of endless green that disappears all too quickly beneath our feet as we rush through its warm, glorious bliss.
Not to thread hijack...
…but wasn’t it rumored that any deals (Bradley, Marquis) were supposed to go down after the weekend? So like, today?

I don't believe he played for the Cubs until 1974.

Today, or any day after today...
I don’t think the rumors said immediately after the weekend.
Darcy Fast?
Even if it’s not him, I always thought that was a great name for a pitcher.

It is Darcy Fast.
We have a winner!
Here’s a interesting article about Darcy Fast and what happened to him.

Wow, that is interesting.
And, as is mentioned at the end of the article, Fast wrote a book about his experiences as a Cub. The URL mentioned still works.
