VORP: Jim Edmonds in 103 PA: -6.3 Reed Johnson in 133 PA: -1.3 Felix Pie in 70 PA: -1.8 Cubs CF in 203 PA: -3.1 I'm not sure I can add these, but in twice the appearances, the Cubs current CF's have been 1/2 as sucky?

Nobody is welcoming Edmonds with "open arms", it's the simply inevitable that Hendry will sign Edmonds. 99.999999999999999999999 to inifnity% of the Cubs fans would prefer to keep Pie up and not sign Edmonds. But Hendry/Piniella has a man-crush on Edmonds.... Actually, on the Tribune poll a full 39.6% endorse the move.

Expanded Rob Neyer comments that essentially sum up the current thoughts...

Here are Felix Pie AB by game for the last month... he has seen regular (>=3) AB in 8 of 27 games. He has had 0 AB in 10 games, and only 1 AB in 7 games.

From a Rob Neyer chat:

Small sample size alert, but BP recently listed the NL teams with the easiest schedules to date. The numbers are +/- predicted wins based on opponent strength vs peripheral stats alone. Higher numbers suggest easier than average opponents. I still only feel the Brewers are serious contenders - that team will eventually hit - see Braun's 4 HRs in 2 days. Cardinals 2.3 Marlins 2.1 Braves 1.7 Cubs 1.5 Phillies 1.0 Diamondbacks 0.6 Dodgers 0.4 Giants -0.1 Mets -0.2 Astros -0.2 Padres -0.7 Reds -0.9 Pirates -1.4 Brewers -1.7 Rockies -1.7 Nationals -1.8

How is Fuld doing at Iowa? A sterling .192/.288/.269 in 52 ABs
-
So does Johnson play for Soriano in the 9th?
-
Your negative VORP leader at -10.4: Robinson Cano in 126PA .154/.214/.256 15K, 18hits (Also, since I'm looking, by VORP - Soriano currently sits as the 22nd worst offensive player in baseball.) Also in the big $$ category: look at Andruw Jones in 113PA: .163 /.274 /.255 34K, 16H, 1HR

The Cards get Pujols to the plate on a groundout and Fontenot gets nailed at the plate on a bases loaded WP - God wears a StL cap to sleep at night.
-
WTF! Pujols scores from 2nd on a groundout.
-
That was payback for the blown call at the plate last half-inning.

You Guys Got What you Wanted... (Vitters to Peoria)

3-4 w/ 3 doubles in debut... -
This is likely to backfire.
-
Wuertz can get K's - why not bring him in?
-
Pick your poison - singles for the lead or a double or two?
-
Welcome Reed Johnson, your starting CF.
-
Honestly, you're nuts. I know, I know. Be careful what you wish for....

Lou trusts no other relievers.

From Spring Training: "He's been much, much better than I thought he'd be at this point," added Yost. "He's got an opportunity one day to win a Gold Glove in left field. He certainly does."
