I have no idea why Edmonds would want to play here. Between the problems there have been between him and Z and the hell the fans are sure to give him if he signs... 1. Winning cures all wounds. 2. The players on the Cubs team that finally does the unthinkable will be elevated at least to the level of the 85 Bears and probably higher given the stakes. This is desirable. 3 If I could get a 1 million salary to be a platoon player on this team, one that seems to be going places, I would certainly take it But in the larger picture I agree. I'm going to have a hell of a time rooting for Jim Edmonds playing center for the Cubs.
