Well, we did trade for Marvell WYNNE in 1989. Maybe we'll get the WINN thing right this year.

Cubs: Johnson CF Theriot SS Lee 1B Ramirez 3B Soto DH DeRosa RF Murton LF Blanco C Cedeno 2B

The former Celtic slam dunk champ.

I don't see Howry on the depth chart????

What happened on the triple - he caught everything against us, even stuff he had no business catching.

I seem to recall the Cubs being in ATL when the Ramirez/Lofton deal was made. They had just lost a tough one to the Brave in which Tom Goodwin pulled up with a torn hamstring on a triple. Lofton was coming over to take CPatt's place and then later we re-aquired Doug Glanville because of Goodwin's injury.

Let's hope the Gints are getting this out of their system before playing great fundamental ball over the weekend in Milwaukee. Lowry, Lincecum and Zito.... sounds like a sweep.

I got 6 tix for July 1 vs. Brew and July 21 vs. Az. Both Bobblehead days. It literally took me 10 minutes. I remember in years past spending over 15 hours trying to get one or two games - I live in Wisconsin. I had luck just clicking refresh when I got some wired error - like game not available for internet sales, etc... - and it went right to the tickets I selected.

Looks like this Toronto guy thinks it's a done deal. It's on page 27: http://www.metronews.ca/uploadedFiles/PDFs/20061201_Toronto.pdf
