Ryan Dempster is a starting pitcher for the Chicago Cubs. Dempster bats and throws right-handed. During 2008 spring training, Dempster's performance earned him a promotion to the third spot on the starting rotation, with the closer job going to Kerry Wood. On April 3, 2008, he earned his first win as a home starter since a 2002 win with the Marlins against the Cubs. On May 15, 2008, Dempster recorded a career high 12 strikeouts in a game. He pitched 8 1/3rd innings, and gave up only 6 hits. On July 8, 2008 he became the first Cubs pitcher in 31 seasons to start 10-0 at home. Dempster finished the season with 17-6 record, with 2.96 ERA and 183 strikeouts in 201 and 2/3 innings. Following the 2008 season, Dempster re-signed with the Cubs for four years and a reported $52 million. He is also known for his Harry Caray impression. Most notably, he announced the Cubs' starting lineup while speaking like Caray before a nationally televised baseball game on Fox Sports.
