Milton was brutal....I am happy they took Fonzi out of the lead off spot, but if Fuki does his July/August nose-dive again, we are no better off.

BJ Ryan would help in the bullpen. I think they are going after him. He is really good. And a lefty to help Sean Marsh.

They are talking about putting Marshall back in the rotation if they get Ryan (assuming to take the place of Dempster's wookie toe). :)

So what's the skinny on this talk of the Tribune selling your Cubbies? I heard 900 million and they can be yours, for sure. Hell, I'll pitch in 5 bucks myself!

That's the ticket price....If I only had an extra 899,999,500, they would already be working for me. :)

A sweep against the lowly Nationals would be good.

Now the Phillies, who are red-hot. We are throwing Lilly, Harden and Zambrano at them...but that means nothing if the bats don't stay alive.

Houston looks good, they are right in the mix. If they or the Brewers pick up Halladay, could be the difference maker.

Go Cubs! (I hope).

Cubs /Astros 4 game series coming up on Monday...a chance for someone to put some distance between them.

Cubs haven't been hot yet this year, now's a good time for that to happen.
