Obviously, I think at some point an organization has to look at the importance of stability. I don't think Cubs have ever really spent time doing that. There's always been a big turnover in personalities.
More Quotes from Larry Rothschild:
He looked good. As we do more throwing, it takes a little longer to get loose just because we have been trying to tire his arm out a little bit to build it up without having any problems. That may be a routine he has to keep for a while.Larry Rothschild

He shows us the ability to throw strikes any time in the count. He has a high level of concentration on every pitch, and that's something we like. Because of his experience, he has an excellent chance to be in the rotation. The ball is really in his court.

He threw close to 50 pitches in two separate sessions and made some progress. Hopefully pretty soon we get some hitters in live batting practice and go from there.

He's a young guy. It's like Billy Martin said -- if you tell him 10 times, tell him 11. Hopefully, that's the one that catches. He's gotten better and better at a lot of things. Obviously, there's room for improvement in concentration and not getting distracted by things. That's something we'll keep striving for. A lot of pitchers face that. Hopefully, we'll get through that.
