Winn singles.

I WANT A CUBS GUITAR!

11 pages and there's still 8 minutes until the first pitch. It's amazing what winning can do.

This is another one of the "Time Will Tell" trades.

Probably 18.

Thought Kendall was batting 7th, according to Lou yesterday?

I hate fluff interviews. He also probably threw "You know" in there a thousand times.

I also forgot to put in that walk-off home run he had against Howry last year at San Diego.

:?: To make room for Kendall on the 25-man roster, someone needs to be sent down/DFA'd/traded/released. Likely candidate would be one of the two other catchers on the roster. If Soto is sent down, there's no chance of the Cubs losing a player. Uhm. There's room for Kendall. You do remember Cubs traded Bowen?

It's another beautiful day in Florida... great for a ballgame... TOO BAD IT'S INDOORS!

Yes, but not significantly. We are paying all but 700k of Barrett's salary. The prorated portion of Bowen is about 200k, so it saved about 500k in payroll. Okay. Now we have Kendall. What are the circumstances now.

ERA+ of 171 and a 0.900 WHIP. Man, was he lights out or what?

Hard decision, I know. If you choose other, please let us know.

Not in front of everyone!!"

Eh. Maybe we could see a DH Wednesday.

Zito is getting paid $18 million (?) to put up an 88 ERA+. I love baseball.

In all seriousness, I'd rather have dumb fans than no fans.

San Francisco Giants Vs. Sean Marshall http://img411.imageshack.us/img411/1764/marshallvsgiantswd3.jpg Chicago Cubs Vs. Barry Zito http://img411.imageshack.us/img411/2088/cubsvszitoam4.jpg Jason Kendall is also 1/4 with a single and a strikeout.

Those same fans sat in LF just to heckle Bonds. But yeah, I don't mind trash on the field when its deserved... But when we're winning, that's pretty damn stupid.

I don't remember but I do know that everyone has been manhandling him this year. Hopefully, the Cubs will join in the fun. :D Yup. The Zambrano/Zito match-up. Box Score 5 IP, 4 ER, 3 BB, 2 K, 1 HR... 110 pitches, 61 strikes. That one homer was by Grudz.

Hendry got us Kendall because the Cubs are about to face Zito. Kendall caught Zito for 2 years. He knows what he'll throw and in what situation he'll do it in, dude.

Well, I guess a change of scenery could do no harm for a guy that is struggling.

I wanted Sutcliffe as color commentator in 2005 instead of Brenly. Nevermind.

Molina Ks! CUBS WIN! CUBS WIN! CUBS WIN!

Popout.. 2 down.
