[cubswin2009]

no, Lilly will probably end up hitting him tomorrow

And he'll be ejected without a warning in the 1st inning

[Fred Hornkohl]

Wells struck out swinging

[Gingerballs Lives]

I'm not watching, what happened to Cliff Flo....er, I mean Milton Bradley?

[Terp]

Just tuned in. What happened to Bradley and how bad did it look?

 

pulled something running out a grounder. He was able to walk off but it is Bradley so who know how long he is out.

[Andy]

Got Lilly tossed for a barely-inside pitch in 07, then elbowed Fontenot in the face trying to steal second.

[cubswin2009]

Didn't he have a dirty slide into 2nd base a few seasons ago? I think he spiked DeRosa or something. I can't remember

So will this be one of those times where Milton isnt DLd but rather site out for 8 games leaving us short?

 

Last time, "3-5 days" turned into 16.

[David]

Being all thuggish last year vs. us.

Think of the dumbest thing, say running hard to first, and you'll probably meet the answer.

Got Lilly tossed for a barely-inside pitch in 07, then elbowed Fontenot in the face trying to steal second.

 

That was Renteria.

Wasn't that Renteria?

[David]

The only thing I remember about the Escobar incident was him getting all crazy trying to stare down our players all the way into the dugout.

[Andy]

I'm mixing up my bad Braves middle infielders.

[ConstableRabbit]

The slide into Fontenot was Renteria. I remember because I saved the photoshop someone made of it right after:

Yes.

[Outshined_One]

Apparently it was Renteria.

 

I think Lilly beaned Escobar last year and got the benches to clear.

[witty alias]

Imagine if he gets the no-no and misses the perfect game on that.

 

Hey, Escobar might have gotten a hit on the next pitch. You never know.

[Fred Hornkohl]

McCann flied out to left field

[Outshined_One]

So, Bradley out for another month if he's day to day?

[Hall7810]

Right calf strain. Day-to-day
