Assuming this trade is true, who takes his place on the team? It's got to be Cedeno, right?

 

It's true!

The Chicago Cubs today traded shortstop Cesar Izturis and a cash consideration to the Pittsburgh Pirates in exchange for a player to be named later. In a corresponding move, the Cubs selected catcher Jake Fox, Chicago's third round pick in the 2003 Draft, from Double-A Tennessee.

 

Fox, who turns 25 on Friday, is hitting .284 (102-for-359) with 18 home runs and 60 RBI in 91 games for Tennessee this season. Named to the 2007 Southern League North All-Star Team, Fox has appeared at catcher, first base, third base, left field and right field this season. He owns a .318 batting average (42-for-132) off left-handed pitching and is hitting .380 (19-for-50) in day contests, while his 18 long balls are tied for the Southern League lead.

Hart and Hardy have the day off for Milwaukee (Gwynn & Counsell batting 1-2). Time to pick up another game.

 

Sounds like something Brewers fans were saying after the Cubs sat Lee and Ramirez yesterday.

 

Plus Hart is 6 for his last 37, and Hardy is 5 for his last 35. Not exactly helping the Brewers offense right now.

True. But (most days) they are still not as good without them.

No DeRosa bothers me.

 

Scheduled day off for him?

[Omar]

That or his numbers against Morris.

[Bote McBoteface]

25 walks this home stand :shock:

[OleMissCub]

good god that girl was flat, and I don't mean her chest, I mean her voice.

 

OUCH.

[Jazz]

Good to see that expressionless mug on my screen today. GO THEO!

[Allroy]

Get it done Ted.

[CyHawk_Cub]

God I hope we bitch-slap Morris...

[BleacherBadger]

Besides the Cubs being the Cubs, no reason we shouldn't take 3 of 4 from a team that averages 39 years old.

 

Let's Go Cubs.

 

Hit Bonds in his mellon-sized head.

I couldn't have asked for much better (realistic) news when I woke up today.

 

Although I must ask...WHY THE HELL DID THEY BRING UP ANOTHER DAMN CATCHER WHEN THEY JUST SENT ONE DOWN!?!?!?

Brewers up 1-0 already

He's not a full-time catcher anymore.

[BleacherBadger]

Good Start.
