That would make sense if his previous success had happened during subsequent years of multi-year contracts. As it is, the last time Bradley had full back-to-back seasons on the same club was 2004-05 with the Dodgers. His OBP numbers from 2006 through 2008 were good, and those were put up with 3 different teams (albeit with limited playing time). But since we're probably stuck with him for 2010 regardless, I'll agree with you in not giving up on him yet. If nothing else, a year under his belt in Chicago should let him know what to expect from the media and fans, which can only be a good thing. HE'S HITTING THE CRAP OUT OF THE BALL AT WRIGLEY
