Womack the Inevitable...

[louisvillecub]

Great....we knew this was coming...

 

 

Baker said he's hearing "real good reports" on Womack, whom Cincinnati released in April after he had hit .222 in nine games. "It's not a bad option," Baker said. "I talked to people out in Sacramento [Tuesday] and they told me he was playing good. They said he wants to play good enough down there to force us, force me to call him up. And that's fine with me."

And he knocked out Daric Barton tonight.

[Monco]

I'd take Womack over Neifi or Hairston. Even the 2003 version that barely could throw the ball to first. But since we're looking for 2nd basemen,when will Theriot ever get a chance?

Womack coming up to the Cubs appears to be inNeiffable.

Womack not in the lineup for Iowa tonite. Guess we'll be seeing him in Wrigley tomorrow...

That should put the Cubs in first by July.

Baker should try Womack leading off with Neifi batting 2nd. Can't wait.

Can anyone guess the next toy Hendry buys for Dusty?

It depends on what fast 200 hitter is released.

[Pistolcub42]

And Deene Ehlis just made it official. Womack not with the ballclub and will be activated tomorrow...

Don't forget Fast Freddie Bynum. Might as well keep Theriot and call up Fontenot too.

I was going to mention that the Cubs bring up any medicore 2b, yet the SECOND best 2B in the organization (Walker then Patterson) stays in the minors?

 

You know your season is lost, when you are competing with the ROYALS for the most mediocrely filled, veteran laden team in baseball.

The difference is...the Royals made no secret of their desire to be crappy. The Cubs gave their fans "fool's hope" on the season.
